    I value my health more, but I spend proportionally too much on improving my wealth.

    The more money I get, the more I realize/care about how unhealthy I am.

    Currently, Wealth > Health, but I really wish it was more balanced. :/

    If you say anthing other than health, then you are an idiot. Without your health, you have nothing.

    Wealth although I feel that's the wrong answer. I think health is undervalued until it becomes an issue. I've never had worse than a broken leg and never any kind of serious illness. My money is always on my mind so I hate to say it, but def wealth.

    I'm in the best shape of my life right now and probably my lowest relative net worth and couldn't be happier. A healthy life translates to a happy one a lot of the time and as they say money can't buy happiness. But I also know I'll be rich in the future I'm not worried about it.

    I'm at my lowest point ever wealth-wise. My net worth was so much higher when I was a broke ass punk kid bike messenger eating spaghetti and ketchup for dinner and drinking Knickerbocker beer @ $9.00 a case...

    but I'm healthy. So much more important. If you think otherwise, I suggest you go pay a visit to a children's hospital or something.

    That being said, being poor sure does suck.
