Wealth 'n Health

Post by Eff »

Yeah... Does wealth buys you health?
YES SURE
Does wealth would keep you healthy?
YES- BIG TIME

Does wealth could cure (help to cure) you from most illness ?
Dammit, BIG TIME YES again

Will the strongest survive?
Umm sorry ,the wealty one will survive

We all know that wealth its not what wiill make us happy, but we ignore the fact that it buys health.
Edit, yes there are exceptions

For a bit you are right effie, for another bit you compare apples and bananas.

Sure you can buy better medics or pay better surgeries and such. Even effort the newest technologies and such.

On the other hand it is our lifestyle that determines how healthy we are. There you can say again that you can buy all of those vegetables everyday and if you aren't wealthy you can't and eat pasta with tomato sauce everyday.
But if you aren't wealthy you can still do some sport for keeping your heart in shape, just don't do or take stuff that will hurt you (like smoking or watching TV all day in lazyness) or after all you can life a joyfull life, what (so far i heart) lets you live longer and more balanced.

So far for the bananas and apples. Wealth partly determines our health, but knowledge about health can be as good as wealth, the willing to be healthy you need for sure. And afterall you don't know if a wealthy guy lives on the edge and ends up in his porsche wrecked in a tree at 150 mph.

After all i'm happy that we have common wealth that pushes the technology forward and invents new stuff for the unhealthy :)

Umm...i don't watch T.V at all really, but you are right. it is the way we live. we can buy us health with the life style we choose. Dammitt. i should pay more attention to this fact instade of complaining.

Its my ant that really sick and she's young, if she was wealthy she could be fine.

I have seen wealthy people live a poor lifestyle, one of excess of eating and booze and lack of exercise and then they use their money to go to a clinic to fix the mistakes they have made to their body. Of course, then they just go out and treat themselves badly again.

Yeah it can go either way, Patrick Swayze had money but it didn't stop him smoking too much, and plenty of rich or famous people die from excess - drink drugs etc.

On the other hand the British royal family all live to be about 150, because they eat well and get the best care possible whenever needed.. so a combination of money and a healty lifestyle work best. That said though Henry Allingham, and Harry Patch (who both died this year) were 111, and 113 and neither was ever rich..

But sometimes it can apply to people who are just rich - without being famous, some drugs are very expensive...
