Ils n´ont vraiment aucune imagination les profs d´anglais...
Nowadays, money has a very imprtant place in our society. You can obviously not live without money but are there others things that can be considered as priorities ? Is it really the priority in modern society ?
On the one hand, we can think that money is not the most important thing. Beautiful and noble concepts like Love, Frienship, Honour, Family seem to be more important than money. Leisure and pleasure can also rival.
On the other hand, when you are a bit more realistic, you realize that women renouncing their fortune because they are in love only exist in bad movies. You realize that if you want to have leisure activities, you have to pay. you realize that your best friend will become your enemy if you don´t refund him for a debt. You relaize that you have to get a lot of money to breed your children. You have to pay to go to cinema. You have to pay to correspond to the fashion criterions ! Why will an old, ugly but rich man turn out more successful with women than a young but poor man ? Even Epicureans need money to put they "Carpe diem" in concrete form.
Money is the only god that everybody on Earth believes in.
