The Debate (no.24); Wealth or Knowledge

in Steem Fashion&Style7 months ago

Which is better unlimited wealth or unlimited knowledge? I don't know but somehow I feel there is a catch in this question. Let's look at this objectively, if I have unlimited knowledge I think it would be easy for me to acquire unlimited wealth if that is my desire. On the other hand if I have unlimited wealth I would most probably have access to all the founts of knowledge in the known universe.

Now I know it is a tantalizing question for many, because all people want wealth and most people will want knowledge, so they would be hard put to answer this question. My answer, as you can guess, is that i would take either of the two as both would in the end lead me to having both.

But, here we go into the realm of the hypothetical. If I have unlimited knowledge, would I want unlimited wealth? or if I have unlimited wealth would I want unlimited knowledge? Difficult questions to answer, as only possessing them will we know what we would want.

Also would that unlimited knowledge and unlimited wealth come with common sense and morality? Because if it doesn't I would just be a living time bomb. Just think what could happen if I don't like something? Or if I throw a tantrum. No unlimited is not for humans, we can just strive to be as good as we can get to be. But having a lot of money does sound good to me, as for knowledge, man with the internet I am never at a loss because I don't know something. except making money, that I never seem to know.
