Money is desired by all to solve most human problems, what are things in life that money cannot buy? Sharing is caring. Thanks!!!
Private property (ownership) is surely the foundation of human civilization: value in economics is about the use (benefit) of a possession and its accounting value as per approximate market price (in monetary digits). In this sense, value is the driving atom of our economy as per exercised preferences and priorities. There are vital and decisive elements in and of our life, which are not based on possessions or property, because life itself is an invaluable gift and all our wealth is factually only a loan, i.e. personally, I prefer the life philosophy of stewardship.
Money cannot buy one's idea.
Money cannot buy a dream.
Money cannot buy a zeal.

Money is a purchasing commodity & it is not a buying product for within in our humanity life passage covering mind , brain , heart ,soul , inner urge to move the path of divinity within .
This is my personal opinion
Happiness, security, not being frightened by what may happen because you have the love and support of those near to you. Especially that one special person who is by your side and who you love.
I will mention only two: Health and true love cannot be bought with money or gold.

Kosta Sotiroski Thanks for your remarkable comment. Well appreciated Prof.
A SAÚDE É O BEM MAIS IMPORTANTE, O DINHEIRO AJUDA, MAS, O TEMPO É IMPOSSÍVEL PAGAR PARA VOLTAR AO PASSADO E CONCERTAR ERROS, NO PRESENTE, NÃO SE PODE COMPRAR MAIS UMA HORA ALÉM DAS 24H QUE A NATUREZA NOS DÁ DIARIAMENTE, E O FUTURO NEM CHEGOU, NÃO SE PODE COMPRAR O QUE NÃO EXISTE. POR FIM, SE HÁ AMOR DE VERDADE, ESTE NADA TEM A VER COM DINHEIRO, E SIM COM AFETO E COMPANHEIRISMO.
André Valério Salles Thanks for your remarkable comment. Best regards!!!

Our Chinese primary school students the first lesson of life is:(一寸光阴，一寸金，寸金难买寸光阴） Time's so dear like gold but can't be bought by it. The teacher always teaches:（少壮不努力，老大徒伤悲） If one doesn’t work hard in his young age, he will regret deeply in old age.One is to say that grow up without achievement, life is wasted;The other is to wake up to your mistakes when you are old,will be useless, helpless, intended to emphasize that we must work hard in time. These poems are so catchy that almost every Chinese can blurt them out. （木已成舟）It's too late to change it now. What's done is done. This is one of the reasons why Chinese primary school students study hard from childhood.
Life, love and freedom are priceless.
Life is dear, love is dearer. Both can be given up for freedom.Petőfi Sándor

Trust & loyalty is invaluable possessions that cannot be bought. Once trust & loyalty is broken, nothing can replace it nor be bought to get it back.

Everyone aspires to have money and wealth to get everything they want but at some point, you realize that there are things money cant buy. Even if money is the key to getting all the material things you wish you had, at the end of the day, money can't buy things like love, happiness, contentment, or time as well peace.
Imran Ud Din Thanks for your apt contribution. Best regards!!!
Material possessions count for very little when you compare them with love, happiness, good people around you the sense of security that these give you. And the belief in God that takes this to a higher dimension.
It is nice to have adequate possessions to make life comfortable, but if I had to be without material possessions or without the other things I've mentioned, I know which I'd opt for.
Mary C R Wilson Thanks for your unique perspective on the subject matter. Well appreciated Ma'am!!!
Money can't buy happiness, but it might enable conditions that make happiness possible, e.g. access to expensive life-saving drugs and treatments for a loved one.
Mary C R Wilson That is just a cultural conceit. Arranged marriages with dowries happen all the time and many of them do result in lifelong loving relationships.
Prof Dr Karl Pfeifer
Thank you for this. I have heard about arranged marriages and wondered about how much 'say' the couple had. And found this in Wikipedia:
'The bride and groom in all of the above types of arranged marriages, usually do have the right to consent; if the bride or the groom or both do not have a right to consent, it is called a forced marriage.'
I can see that arranged marriages can be approved by the couple. But the forced marriage seems less likely to the type of lifelong loving relationship that you wrote about.
Mary C R Wilson You miss the point. The issue is not consent but the monetary transaction (dowry) that may be involved. Consent does not magically make a dowry disappear. To consent is to agree to follow the money, but if consent-cum-money leads to lifelong happiness, so much the better.
Prof Dr Karl Pfeifer
Thank you! This is not a subject that I knew a lot about, and I'm learning!
Thank you, Professor!
