Just in time for the holiday eating season, someone asked me this question: Would you rather be skinny or rich? I thought I'd see what the moms here thought...
Skinny. I am poor in material things but rich in blessings (My family.) If I were skinny, maybe more money would come my way. ...thing about it. ;-) LOL. On a serious note though, I know that is the one thing that causes me a lot of stress and is always in the back of my mind. THAT takes its toll after a while. I'm one of those girls people would say might be pretty if she was thinner... by the way, I have a sneaking suspicion a lot of women who say 'rich' don't know what it feels like to be overweight.
I would rather be rich! That way I could give to all the places and ministries that are in need of finances. My desire is to be a philanthropist! Also when you are rich you have the money to change what you want about your body by hiring a personal trainer and special cook! Sandra
I would rather be Rich and Healthy. Skinny doesn't necessarily mean healthy and long life and I'm currently slim (not skinny) now. So I would prefer to be Rich so I can pay for the resources to be healthy.
Well since I spent most of my life under weight and made fun of until I got pregnant I'll take rich. Rich with some money smarts to invest wisely and not loose it quickly like a lot of lottery winners do...
I'll take the fortune! I've been too skinny (in my opinion) when I was younger and hated it. Let's all go for the most internal and external wealth possible for 2009!
