Money can buy happiness, is that so?

            The world nowadays is non-stop using money in everything. Without money, everything will be messed and limited. Money is vital in order to ease human’s life. For instance, food, shelter, clothes, education and so on. “If money  were the only criterion by which a child’s welfare can be gauged, then a baby bought for as much as RM40,000 in the black market would seem set for life. For money-rich but child-poor couples, it is a small prices to pay to introduce small life into their home. The cot is gilded, the blanket monogrammed, the college fund filled to the brim. All that’s wanting is a bun in the oven. And where there is a baby-for-sale racket, money can indeed buy happiness. And after all, why not?” (NST, March 3, 2013). Based on the above statement, I have come out with two counter agreements which are money cannot just simply take the right of belonging and money will create a huge family’s issue.

            Initially, money couldn’t simply take someone’s belonging although it is backed by buying power. Means that it doesn’t matter how rich you are, but when you have stole someone’s belonging it is a great mistake that you have ever made and you will regret about it. The reality is there’s a lot of human trafficking in the black market. How could you buy someone’s belonging for your own sake? Do you ever think if you are that parents situation who have just lost the particular child, how do you feel? Today’s world is so cruel, riches people dominating the societies in everything. There is a lot of inhumane and selfish people everywhere in this world. Taking other’s belonging is not a big deal as money can make it happens.  

            Secondly, there is a lot of consequences especially in family’s issue occurs due to the buying life from black market. One of it is the wealth issue. The adopted child doesn’t have any right to take over the wealth although how good you raised them up. As the result, the wealth might be competed among the other family members.  On the other hand, when the child had achieved at certain age, he or she might wanted to know who is their biological parents. The adopted parents could not stop them to reveal the truth. Money cannot delete the actual fate. The adopted parents will lose their respect if they are hiding the truth from where the children was coming from.

           To wrap up, money can’t simply bring happiness without having risked and also consequences. For temporary happiness yes it is, but sooner or later the truth will be revealed. People need to consider that if they have been put in the situation of missing their children, how will they feel? Nothing can’t replace that child. Remember that, once you have took someone’s belonging, later you will feel exactly like what you have did.
