**Wisdom vs. Wealth** (which would you choose)

[havoc]

If you had to choose Wisdom or Wealth, which would it be? Its either one or the other. Situations where one might say "well if I had wisdom I would eventually have wealth" are not allowed or "if I was wealthy I could hire the most reknown scholars to teach me wisdom". Those are not possibilites. Please choose either Wisdom or Wealth and state why you chose your answer.

Peace

without hesitation -----> wisdom

wisdom is wealth to me..

i shall never stop attending school or reading on buddhism.. i shall never stop being in touch with current events.. i shall never stop learning about the past.. i shall never stop learning..

the more i learn the more i want to learn. i want to learn and know as much as there is to learn and know while i'm on this earth.. learning makes me happy.. a happiness that is better than any brought about by wealth..

wisdom and knowledge enrich me in a way that no amount of money ever could.

An angel appears at a faculty meeting and tells the dean that in return for his unselfish and exemplary behavior, the Lord will reward him with his choice of infinite wealth, wisdom, or beauty.

Without hesitating, the dean selects infinite wisdom.

"Done!" says the angel, and disappears in a cloud of smoke and a bolt of lightning.

Now, all heads turn toward the dean, who sits surrounded by a faint halo of light. At length, one of his colleagues whispers, "Say something."

The dean sighs and says, "I should have taken the money."

Is this a serious response?
You say " a nice car scores high with some chicken head ", is that the girl you want to be around, you want your family to meet, you know "the girl who likes me cause I drive a nice car", does not make much sense to me. peace

Wisdom....

Wealth does not create happiness.. it only brings more problems. People can take your money but they can not take your wisdom/knowledge.
