See Talk:Wealth for justification of why I created this page and removed the redirect to wealth. Cazort (talk) 21:57, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

More sources[edit]

Here are more sources for Buddhism, esp. Buddhist views on economic prosperity: [1], and [2]. Another source the reinforces the sentence currently on the page: [3]. Feel free to work these into the article if I don't get to them before you do! Cazort (talk) 21:48, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Increase in monetary wealth[edit]

The article should make clear that an increase in the flow of financial resources can indeed increase the prosperity of a family. However, at a certain point this stagnates as aldough the people in a family get more money, they spend any excess (eg on increased food requirements, non-essential needs as cigarettes, ...).

Definition of "Success"[edit]

A wiki search of success yields three definitions, listed here- Success may refer to:

1)a level of social status 2)achievement of an objective (goal) 3)the opposite of failure

I changed the wording of the article from "success", to "successful social status" because I think this definition best describes what the article intends. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gizziiusa (talk • contribs) 16:41, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
