Question asked during a Dharma class. So why do we work and save to create wealth?
As the chinese saying goes, 钱不是万能的，但没钱万万不能。
Wealth creation can be said to be forward looking. But in some sense to me, it is not planning for the right future.
Yes, we need money for our retirement, so as not to be a burden, to be able to maintain our current lifestyle, to leave behind some for our children.
Even the Buddha (if i got it right), encouraged wealth creation.
But from another perspective, isnt wealth creation (taken to the extreme), a reflection of not being contented?
As always, walk the middle path
