The poem “Money” expresses the determination of a poet who wishes to live in poverty in order to find eternal pleasure in his or her life. When the economy is in bad shape, it is only possible to realise how important money is. Friends who are wealthy in spirit are preferable to those who are wealthy in money. Materialistic pleasure fades away with the passage of time, but eternal pleasure remains as it has always existed.

1. Money will never be able to provide you with eternal happiness.
2. Poor people are able to laugh freely because they have less wealth and few friends.
3. A large number of poet’s friends remained false and untrue during his time of wealth, whereas few but true friends remained during his time of poverty.
