A wise person once said something to this effect:

I do not strive to give my children what I didn't have when growing up.

I strive to tell them what I was not told when growing up

So, what is it you were NOT told when growing up that now as an adult, you wish you had been told when growing up ?

Life is a struggle, money is not everything !

Life is a struggle, money is not everything !
"Money is not everything" is the most misleading and disingenuous statement in the world today.

Surprisingly, people who say money isn't everything tend to be financially successful (relative to the ones they are addressing) and they only say so AFTER getting the money. That's the typical speech a rich guy gives a group of peasants before swindling them of the few coins they have left. That's why your pastor will tell you that money and other earthly possessions don't matter before receiving Ruto's stolen cash two Sundays later.

Wealthy people tell peasants "money is not everything" to prevent them from feeling bad about themselves. It is a coping mechanism.
