Having more money and less free time is better than earning less money and having more free time. Discuss both views and state your opinion.

#money #time
One of the factors which determines our
life
 is
money
 we earn, one earning more holds more likely expensive habits like going to fancy restaurants, travelling or buying known brand clothing. The ones who are choosing to
work
 less and
consequently
 earn less has more
time
 for themselves. I respect their choice to sacrifice stability over
time
 spent with family and people you love. Humans who are seeking wealth and together bigger capital, as we know, works hard and long hours. Often they do not have free
time
 as much because their
work
 has become the biggest part of the
life
 and often as a lifestyle.
However
, they can provide a better
life
 for their children. Often the need of being wealthy follows fancy habits which not necessarily give fulfilment. Human beings who consciously decide to
work
 less, like four days per week or just having regular 7,7/8 hours per day job, leaves them more
time
 to live their
life
,
time
 for hobbies.
Moreover
, I believe persons choosing
live
Suggestion
to live
 over
work
 has more creativity and alternative lifestyle.
However
, not everything is so perfect when it comes to the pay check day and retire. I strongly believe that our
time
 is the most expensive that you can not exchange into
money
. I prefer
life
 and
work
 balance. Living
life
 and having ability to share my
time
 with family and friends. I elect to have fun than all the
money
 without ability to experience
life
 in all its colours. I think
money
 cannot give happiness, humans need
first
 shelter, food that can be bought by
money
. You cannot buy love, fulfilment and friendship
