The saying “money can’t buy happiness” is especially relevant. One can be wealthy in experiences and in memories, one can have a wealth of knowledge and one can be wealthy in opportunities. ]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731483 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731484 Wealth: Money, Education, Content, Depends on culture, Definition is subjective, relationships, community, Your sense of wealth can be altered by comparing yourself to others, 

Is too much emphasis put on financial wealth?
Is there a universal definition of wealth?

How has money become the definition of wealth in our culture?

It is interesting how every single thing in our lives are monetized today.
Difference between wealth and richness?
I believe wealth is situational to the society which you live in and where you live. For me, education is a sign of my wealth.

Our society has an obsession for ownership.]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731485 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731486 Wealth= type of car, money, house. Not true
Wealth with money and wealth without money are different kinds of wealth 
Wealth is thriving in the situation that your in -Minna
Wealth has different definitions in different geological locations (Downtown east side vs Upper west side Vancouver wealth is very different)
The definition of wealth changes through age. We begin to value different things making us more wealthy in different which we didn’t consider wealth before.]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731486 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731487 WEALTH

-much more than money
-very open 
-can be anything that you feel fulfilled by
-feeling comfortable 
-relative, depending on where you are geographically
-In society, wealth is viewed as money most of the time, why are no other types of wealths displayed?
-to me, being truly wealthy is having not only money, but also having love, community, education, health and much more]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731489 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731490 I agree with the group, wealth isn’t materialistic- can be happiness, intelligence, experiences, etc. Wealth means something different for us all and changes throughout your life. It can be based on where you live. Also wealth can- and is meant to be shared. For instance, teachers share their intelligence, my family and I share our happiness and memories. 
Society deems wealth as having a lot of money, but money won’t always make you happy. ]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731490 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731491 wealth is an abundance of one thing or another
How has wealth changed from place to place, neighbourhood to neighbourhood/country to country, etc.? How has wealth helped define culture? Is wealth defined by what you need or what you want? Can a person be truly wealthy without having the fundamental needs? 

]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731491 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731492 I agree, because wealth can definitely be more than money, and is extremely subjective by the implication of personal value. 
Why is society more concerned with constantly gaining money, no matter the means, instead of focusing on the happiness and fulfillment from non-materialistic elements in life?
It is important to be grateful for what we have in life]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731492 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731493 I think wealth can be really anything (money, knowledge, memories, etc.) as long as you have relatively more of said thing than most people. Wealth can be different depending where you are geographically too. For example, you could relatively have a lot more money than people in Zimbabwe, but not a lot of money relative to people in Canada. Also, age can be a huge factor too. If I had $200 when I was 5 I would consider myself wealthy compared to other 5 year olds. If I have $200 when I'm 30, in Vancouver, I'd actually be quite poor. ]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731493 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731494 - Wealth definitely changes with age. As we grow older, our interests and value changes. We begin to need different things to feel “wealthy”. I agree with Minna that your perception of wealth also changes depending on who your friends/peers are. 
- can (or should) wealth expand to health or physical ability? ]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731494 juraimi_jumahat https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731495 I agree that wealth can be defined as having a lot of a positive thing. However, I believe that wealth also implies a richness in many aspects-- essentially a comfortable lifestyle including a wealth in experience, memory, knowledge and community as well as material items.]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731495 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731496 Wealth depends completely on your personal values. For some, wealth is defined as money yet for others it could be something that is not materialistic. Wealth is defined as an abundance of one thing as an example “A wealth of knowledge”. 
Why is money one of the main things people think of when the word wealth is mentioned?  
Is wealth geographical? 
When is one considered wealthy? How will someone know they are wealthy? Wealth can bring comfort. 
Others can provide you wealth in different forms. 
I disagree with the point that only being wealthy will bring you happiness. You could have a wealth of land but still not be satisfied in other aspects of your life. ]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731496 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731497 Money immediately comes to mind when we think of wealth, but it can be used to describe a large quantity of anything. Is a wealth of knowledge or a wealth of information more valuable than money in today’s world?
To me right now I want wealth in experiences, because I am young and I have so much I want to do in my life. When I’m older maybe I will want more of a material wealth to be comfortable and safe in my life. ]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731497 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731498 At some point, wealth changes from need to want. For example people need food and water to survive but not a large house and tons of possessions. ]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731498 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731499 I agree in that wealth doesn’t always have to be material objects. Wealth can mean many things to different people. You can have wealth in family, community, nature. I wonder if one is less wealthy in money if that plays a role in how wealthy one is in other aspects of life? I think that most people see wealth as only possible in money, and do almost everything in their power to reach that, and can sometimes neglect other aspects of wealth that are more important. Once gained, wealth can often be taken for granted, so how do we truly appreciate what we have?]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731499 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731500 How has wealth changed over the years though? Do we value money more or less now the we did 50 years ago? 
Love the idea of wealth in memories.
Is wealth quantifiable? 
We also agreed that wealth is subjective. However, we didn’t think of it as a monetary exchange rate, but rather as wealth referring to things that are value to YOU. 
I agree with Robert’s point. While wealth may mean you are able to spare something, being wealthy (unfortunately) doesn’t equate to giving things away (at least not in today’s society). ]]> 2020-01-20 19:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731500 https://padlet.com/learn4life/wealth1/wish/433731501 Is wealth generational?
Is it geographical?

Some  people might  think wealth is having a lot of money but others might  think wealth is just  having  a roof over your  head.

Ones community values surrounding wealth directly affect how a single persons view of being “wealthy” contrasts another’s.  

Do we recognize that wealth does not only refer to money, but choose to ignore it? 
Is it possible to universally define wealth? 
What does a comfortable lifestyle mean? I think again it is very geographical and depends gwhat one considers comfort. 

When considering wealth as memories, could wealth be how people remember you? Or how you’re presence including the stories about you and your life had a strong impact on the world.
