Where does money rank for you?

[midnight]

I know that money isn't supposed to rank high on the important things, but being honest and what I should say/do don't always come out to be the same. If you had to rank the following things, how would you rank them? I've listed them in my order:

work
money
friends
health
family


Now I know this shouldn't be the order, but if I'm honest it probably is. Now if something major happened to my health, then that would be much more important, but since I'm relatively healthy, I eat like crap.

Anyway, I just wanted to know if there are others out there a screwed up as me.

1. family
2. health
3. money
4. work
5. friends

1. Family
2. Health of my family
3. Money as needed
4. Friends
5. Work

Least your honest . have you got kids? somehow when I think family I think of my DH and kids, I prolly wouldn't rank my mother as more important than much of anything, and I certainly wouldn't rank my own health as important if it wernt for the fact that I have to be here for my kids.

I think your post is interesting. Do you realize that everything on your list (besides money) cannot be purchased with money?

This is my list:
1. Family
2. Health
3. Friends
4. Work
5. Money

I know that it takes money to survive, but I value the other things a whole lot more )

Hmmmm....how important they are to me, or how much time I allot to each? because, how important they are:
1. Family
2. health
3. Friends
4. work
5. money

but, how much time I invest in each??
1. work
2. money
3. Family
4. Friends
5. Health

so, I know what my priorities SHOULD be, unfortunately, I'm in such a financial hole, that, to provide even the basics, I HAVE to put work/money first....

I definitely know where my priorities should be, but, like midnight, I see there are definitely times in my life where theory and reality don't match. All it takes is for my husband to have a bad day at work and all the sudden work and money leap to the top of the list. It seems whatever the current "crisis" is gets the top slot even if it doesn't deserve it.

1. Family
2. Health
3. Work (or in my case, school)
4. Money
5. Friends

Family
Health
Friends
Money
Work

I guess that is the way it is for me.

Well, its a tough one to answer because at different times in life the list goes through different adjustments. However, I think in general money ranks fairly high on my list because without money just about everything else suffers. Your health, your family's well being, your relationships etc, yes its unfortunate but its the reality.

Mine is as follows:

1. Family (My wee CJ will always come first in my life no matter
what)

2. Work (Through my new profession I've gain self-esteem and confidence)

3. Money (What can I say...I'm a saving mad woman!)

4. Health (Without health I cannotwork, so I am getting better at looking
out for my health)

5. Friends (People come and go out of your life, but your babies belong
to you forever)

Family
Health
Friends
Money
Work

Definately in that order! Well, somedays I may trade my family in for money...or at least some of them.
