Money can buy a clock, but not time.
Money can buy a book, but not knowledge.
Money can buy you a position, but not respect.
Money can buy you medicine, but not health.
Money can buy a friend, but not love.
Money can buy you blood, but not life.
Use money wisely!
Money is a good servant and a bad master.
