@lukestokes going by the meaning financial value, it is the worth or value of goods and services.
However per my understanding whosoever is financially strong must do somwthing for society welfare to be valued among the masses. Even if a person earns a lots that he or she can afford any luxiry of life but not doing anything for the uplifment of the society he or she do not deserve to be valued. I would say they are mean enoigh to look after themselves even achieving so much in life.
Maybe, but that also seems like a subjective judgement to me. If someone provides enough value to the world, who is to say they have to continue doing so instead of just living off the value they’ve accumulated?
If a person keep on accumalating enough wealth by anymeans how does that going to help him, atlast he not going everything with them in the graveyard. How does their financial value going to count.??.
unless and untill they don't do anything for the betterment and upliftment of the society. Altleast the people who got benefitted by the betterment can remeber them after the soul depart and value them...so the person get valued when lives and also when not alive.....btw these ar all my personal thought.
I completely agree that value accumulation at the expense of others or simply for the purpose of attaining more is completely fruitless and useless. The point of contention I have with your first comment is that by becoming financially strong, they should have already done something valuable to society (which is why people paid them). I’m not a fan of saying anyone is obligated to do anything for anyone else. That’s the difference between positive and negative rights.
Agree..they have done for the society...but why it become a trend that rich getting more richer and poor getting more poorer...must be the margin have surpases certain limit...which making the gap wider n wider...which is affecting the economy as well...to fill the gap arent the financial strong people need to do more?....
These are great interactions that lead to better thinking.
Regarding financially strong people; Throughout history, we as humans, don’t we sometimes over value or devalue the contribution/opinion of individuals who have acquired more. We give excessive attention to celebrities opinions on a variety of topics they are not qualified to speak on, AT THE SAME TIME we miss the chance to learn from people who have been successful.
