Someone sent this to me. Very appropriate reminder.
6 PRINCIPLES OF LIFE
1. No point using limited life to chase unlimited money.
2. No point earning so much money you cannot live to spend it.
3. Money is not yours until you spend it.
4. When you are young, you use your health to chase your wealth; when you are old, you use your wealth to buy back your health. Difference is that, it is too late.
5. How happy a man is, is not how much he has but how little he needs.
6. No point working so hard to provide for the people you have no time to spend with.
Remember this -- We come to this world with nothing, we leave this world with nothing!

Billionaire Li Ka Shing shared his philosophy of life:When you think that Life is but a Short Journey, you’ll hope to Make the Most of the time when you’re still able to work, 如果你想到人生都是短短的一程, 自己都希望在这个世上能够做得些事时,
It's Worthwhile to SOW GOOD SEEDS in the world. 尽量做些可以在世上留下好的种子, 都是值得的。

Very appropriate reminder. 6 PRINCIPLES OF LIFE 2. No point earning so much money you cannot live to spend it.5. How happy a man is, is not how much he has but how little he needs.Remember this -- We come to this world with nothing, we leave this world with nothing!

Concur with items 2 and 5.
Viewpoint from Li Ka Shing about purpose of generating wealth. Does having Money mean Real Happiness?
 I was beginning to wonder and felt the answer was ‘not necessarily’. Later I had the conundrum thought out. I should Make More Money and Use it when Opportunity arises.
 Only Making Money like this has any meaning.

6 PRINCIPLES OF LIFE 1. No point using Limited Life to chase unlimited money.6. No point working so hard to provide for the people you have no time to spend with. Was discussing about the unpredictable life span of human with my pals when one mentioned about a nephew who was detected with brain cancer at tender age of 18.  That occurs to me that life is meant to be savour with refreshing experience while we are physically fit.  True wealth isn’t about the stuff you collect; it’s about your ability to enjoy the wonderful experiences that life has to offer. Some of those experiences may require more resources than others. - Sending your child off to college is an experience that will require significant funds. - Taking a long walk at sunset with someone who loves you will not. And take it from me: Your feeling of personal contentment won’t increase relative to the number of red-bottomed shoes in your closet. But if you wear any pair of shoes to a restaurant to meet good friends for a night of great conversation, that’s priceless.
 While some important experiences wil require saving up, fortunately, so many of the most meaningful experiences you can have cost little or no money. Here are five ideas that will help you create a rich and layered life: 1) Give your time to someone who needs it. 2) Make it a point to travel to somewhere you've never been before. 3) Talk to a loved ones about an issue that has been brewing between the two of you. 4) Go get some culture.
 5) Love your own body.galleryqui.wordpress.com/tag/black-wealth-challenge/
