“Fortune favours the prepared mind” – Dr David Crombie

I tend to agree with this statement as the more prepared you are, the less surprises will be. Fortune makes a person to feel free and to have status in society in order to be much prepared to face anything that might happen in any circumstances.

However, some might say happiness is not about money but I believe that money plays a capital role in the lives of human beings. Everything in current days is about money as some people might say money talks. If you want a relationship, you must have money as you have to spoil your partner; when you wanted to get married, you must have money even from the beginning, actually if you are from African cultures when it comes to lobola; if you want to live a happy life, you must have money; to be respected in the community where you live, you must have status i.e. money; etc.

Money is not everything but without money you cannot be recognised within our societies. Nevertheless, others might say that the true fortune comes from a person’s behaviour as when you have peace of mind, you can deal with any situation whether you have status or not. A man with a good background such as great qualifications can therefore be recognised even by rich people whether he has status or not.
