    Wealth is having a lot of something. I can have material wealth, which means I have a lot of stuff (or money to get stuff). I can have metaphysical wealth, which means I have a lot of karma, grace, the favor of God, etc. I can also have emotional wealth, which means I have a lot of love given to me by various people, joy, happiness, etc.

    Many people equate wealth with being rich. You can have a little wealty, but that doesn't make you rich. Rich means that you have enough for your own needs, plus enough for the needs of others as well.

    I used to think it was having enough money to buy everything you could think of, like cars and houses and boats....

    But now I have all that and the only time I felt truley weathly is when I had several girlfriends......

    So today, wealth to me is having as many girls going out with me as I can handle..... THAT'S WEALTH! lol

    Yes, all the spiritual things like health and love and wisdom but let's be honest, it's just much easier to have enough to live comfortably and not constantly worry about bills. Being poor sucks but I also suspect being fabulously wealthy makes you miserable, as there is little left in life to strive for. Looking forward to being able to afford something nice eventually keeps me ticking!

    Wealth is internal contentment. You can't place a price on it.

    Wealth, in all senses, is something which, by using properly, can help us in getting physical as well as mental satisfaction/joy.

    To be truly happy and at peace. There are a lot of people that have money to buy anything, and yet these same people are not happy because they are afraid of loosing it or do not have any real friends.
