Is it all about money to you? or is there more to succes?

Hey guys I am just curious what everyone else's true joy comes from when they run a business.. Is it about how much money you make? if not what about your business or what about your dream business would bring you joy?

It is a dream come true for a business to earn and run smoothly despite of current economic crisis. Joy comes in when you reach your specific goals on your business.

I agree but i think way too many young kids are too focused on there first million causing them to fail

for me, it is all about having the ability to live my life how and where I want. I want the ability to work from the beach in Mexico, the mountains in CO, or a cafe in Prague. Money solves problems that poverty never will. Money is just a tool though. Do you love your hammer? Or do you love the beautiful house it can build? Or do you love that it gives you the freedom to take a 6 month sabbatical if you so chose?

for me I think money is everything because with money comes power and a lot of other things

Being able to write my own checks and create my own destiny. I'm a rugged individualist at heart. Also, directly helping other people is key.

it's not all about the money, it's about the love =D

For me it's all about satisfaction we get by our success, if there is no satisfaction then success and money has no worth.

The freedom.

It's about the ride. The money will come. You have to enjoy it, wake up and want it. If you just want money and money quick you are not an entrepreneur.

Money cannot create happiness. Its only the bi product of hard work and success. The joy of success comes from seeing progress not dollar figures. But im all for the Benjamin's BABY!

[avantstar]

Honestly to me its all aboutr the money.

yea i think everyone has there opinions personally I think people who are truly successful have other passions in mind. I think that if you enjoy something and you can figure a way to turn it into a successful business then you are a true entrepreneur. For me as an 8th grader i was bringing in more than some adults and being so young i spent it like an idiot trying to make myself happy with the product of my labor "money." i think people that are addicted to money are miserable eventually because they always want more... one thing that i myself struggle with all to much. But true happiness or should i say LONG TERM happiness in my opinion, is the truly based upon passion for what you do not for what you make.

Thanks for all the opinions guys!-Blake

The bottom line for me for the last 30 or so years is money and i have never hidden that fact and yes i am happy and healthy and free.

pride and glory from achieving your goal. Money is of course a portion of what gives you joy, but it's all about reaching your goal and making it successful. That's just me.
