Are we all sacrificing peace to make money?

In today's fast moving world mostly people including me are focusing on making money. We are doing this at the expense of our peace of mind. The chasing of wealth can lead to long working hours, stress, and constant feeling of pressure in order to achieve more and more. This can make it hard to find time to relax and enjoy life. In chasing money, we including me are destroying our mental health.

Earning money is important for meeting basic needs and enjoying a comfortable lifestyle but sacrificing peace to make more money is not a good habit in my view. We should prioritize peace and happiness and make balance with financial goals to spend a beautiful peaceful plus financially stable life. I myself dont want to earn a lot of money but want to be financially stable so I dont have to worry in buying necessary items.

Which is wiser to spend and earn or to spend after earning and saving?

Obviously it wiser to spend after earning and saving. The reason is this approach helps you to ensure that you have enough money for both your needs and unexpected expenses. By saving first you build a financial fund that can provide security and peace of mind. It also helps you to avoid debts because you already have money that you are spending now rather than buying things using credit card.

On the other hand, spending first and then try to save of what's left is risky. Its like living paycheck to paycheck with little or no saving for emergency or unexpected expenses. This can easily cause financial stress and it is really hard to get rid of in short term. So my opinion here is to spend after earning and saving.

Apart from money, what brings you peace and happiness?

There are a lot of things can brings peace and happiness to me. On top of them is spending time with my family and friends. Sharing happy moments with family and friends whether it through conversation, activities, BBQ party, or simply having dinner together. No other relationship provides emotional support, joy and feeling of being cared than relationship with family members and best friends.

In my family, it is a habit that we all do dinner together most of the times. If one member is not home we wait for him for dinner. It lets us sit together at least one time in a day. Furthermore we talk to each other and solve any problem if one member is facing in his life. This makes our bond stronger and I find peace and happiness in it.

You said exactly right that we all are running after making money and can destroy our peace and tranquility for the purpose of making money day and night. There is no doubt that money is the basic need of man but peace and Peace is also a refuge for man, and man has forgotten his peace and tranquility, and man has always followed the worship of money, although there is no doubt that everything in the world is going on as usual. But you should also give yourself rest for a special time
