So controversial has the issue of economic security is the ultimate ambition become that this leads to many people’s questions of whether or not personal satisfaction and well-being are more prioritized over financial achievement. Both ideas provoke strong arguments that I will consider below.
Advocates of the idea say that the quality of financial stability provides people security and stability expenditure. People with economic independence no longer need to be concerned about income to fulfill their essential needs, such as living expenses to buy furniture for the aesthetics needs for personal enjoyment without any pressure. Moreover, economic stability has long been assumed to be able to help one another, by making charity donations. This situation can support people in rural areas with basic necessities such as fundamental requirements. To illustrate, families with financial freedom, create donation programs by making parcels in the form of raw materials of staple foods.
However, opponents of financial freedom argue that happiness and well-being are more essential for maintaining mental health. It is said that some people who prioritize satisfaction are more free to express feelings to reduce stress. This allows people to manage their emotions and be more stable in their lives. Furthermore, prioritizing self-fulfilment and joy often have free moments for spending quality time with family that contributes to strengthening their bonds and the sense of security. For instance, people who chose happiness, they know that quality time with family is essential and have healthier relationships.
To sum up, it seems to me that economic security would be wiser due to the profound effects it may have such as security and stability expenditure and help each other. If possible, people with financial security should be balanced to manage their personal expenses and use funds for good things.
