Nowadays, a controversial question is Wealth the Key to Wellness or is Health the True Wealth?" From the very beginning, a decade before the decade began its journey with this debate. It differs from different people’s points of view. Sometimes it’s quite impossible to make others understand the worthiness of this topic. It depends on the percipient and acceptance in general, which applies to all. Today, I’ll try to share my knowledge logically. To survive, everyone requires money, or you can say wealth. But how much wealth do you require to survive and maintain your health? This is another big question and also controversial. As human beings, we don’t know the actual requirement of our wealth and its limit. Poor people want to be rich, and rich people want to be the richest. Everyone is seeking more; you won’t find a full stop to this requirement of wealth until death, and it is a fact.
To maintain good health, and a healthy life also a sign of wellness, you require sufficient food, at least balanced food, undoubtedly. There is another question that occurred: what is balanced food, and how can we measure it as sufficient? You will find a tremendous variety of food charts from the different people and doctors from their perspective and logic. And this also varies for poor people, middle-class people, and rich people based on their wealth. It means that wealth plays a vital role in health. And we can not ignore that at all. You must have good health to maintain wellness. But wealth is not the only key to wellness, and it has not been proven yet.
On the other hand, to maintain wellness, you need a good family and social life. Does wealth solve these issues to make a good family and social life? These answers are known to all of us. But it may vary person to person. But we can say that wealth is not enough to be well. A family person is always surrounded by many difficulties and challenges, including happiness. It is the most important part of life. If a persons have enough wealth, but is unhappy with family and social life, then it will be an obstacle to well-being.
People always faced so many physical problems, like sickness, accidents, and mental problems. If you have sufficient wealth, then you can easily get cured and take care of your health, except for a life-ending sickness or accident. Here, wealth is ruled out, but not enough, when accidents and some sicknesses like cancers and AIDS occur. It means wealth is not enough for wellness when life is a concern. Say, a person has enough wealth but always faces sickness, sometimes is hospitalized, and so on. And also food restrictions, he won’t be able to take food because of his illness. Can he be a happy person? Obviously, not. So, wealth is not the only key to wellness, but it matters.
A healthy person always has a safe side that he is good at work, can take good food as per his ability and choice, and won’t go to the hospital often. It is a good sign to live in peace, which drives wellness. But wealth is also a big concern. However, for a general person, there is no requirement for huge wealth to lead a healthy life, as health is related to family and social life. A happy person can be able to maintain a healthy life. Too much cost and huge wealth are not mandatory to be well. So, we can say wealth is not the only key to wellness, and health is the true wealth. But this controversy and debate have no end, every coin has two sides, as with the concerns of this topic.
