A question of money? just questions!

Did you ever read Chicken Soup for the Soul, any of them? Did it make you feel good? Why was that?
When was the last time you gifted someone more than what they were worth? - Probably never or the only time you did, it was a big mistake!
And when was the last time you felt you could have given him/her something better and had the following as an afterthought! - If only I had spent a bit more or thought a bit more about it.... - Very Recently? (if you are in the habit of gifting people that is)

Do you think like this?
That money can play havoc with relationships is better learnt sooner than later! And that pound you fretted over, after calculating its value in Indian rupees will be worth a lot more - after you realize it cost you a friend!

Or like this?
Well. But then money is all that matters, you'll have all the friends, beautiful women you'll need once you have the money. It's just a matter of waiting then. You can be cheap till then, which you might not really be.
To hell with all these people for whom I am expected to spend some money on to buy some gifts. I'll have better ones, when I have more money - after all, like me, they are attracted to money as well! And I'll end up with the those most wonderful flexi-friends whom I can change as I gain or lose money!
