    Having good health is fortunate. Have a lot of money is wealthy. No?

    OK and for me money is wealth but wealth is never always a money. Health can be wealth, Love can be wealth, Friends can be wealth, Family can be wealth, great job can be wealth and so on :D

    For me, true wealth comes from within. [Happiness,love,confidence,ideas,emotions etc]

    Money is merely a tool to generate wealth.

    Wealth is measured as the number of days the income from your assets will sustain you, and financial independence is achieved when your monthly income from assets exceeds your monthly expenses.
    Wealth or assets generate cash Flow which is Money.
    Better accumulate wealth as it is a source for money....
    This was beautifully explained in Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki......

    Wealth is a far greater value than Money. I would rather have average income, health and family than to win the lotto and loose it all. Wealth is the true value and cannot be measured in monetary terms

    Agree there mostly, but don't you hate "Average" or "Mediocrity". I for one feel that calculated gambles and risks are necessary and losses are an essential part of winning [In the long term].

    Money is not wealth, but simply a tool for facilitating the exchange of that real wealth that consists of goods and services provided by people for people.
