35 Things in Life That Money Cannot Buy

The best things in life that you will ever encounter or experience are free. There are certain things in life where friends, family, and good memories are much more valuable than any currency. Money may give you material things but these are only temporary. From happiness to honesty, these are some of life’s best gifts that don’t cost a penny at all.

Here are 35 great things in life that money can’t buy:

* True love

It is a great feeling to love and be loved by someone, and money can’t buy it. Everyone deserves true love, whether you are the poorest or the richest in this world. All it takes is for you to love unconditionally and find the right one who will love you as he/she loves himself/herself.

* Self-love

You can’t give and spread love to others or to a special someone if you can’t even love yourself. When you have self-love you learn to value yourself more and you would not let other people bring you down easily. You don’t need money to learn to love yourself.

* Respect

Respect is not easy to earn but when you do earn it, it is a rewarding feeling. You can neither buy nor sell it.

* Honor

Honor is having a good reputation, and it can be hard to maintain it because we’re only human and we all make mistakes.

* Long life

Having a long life takes determination and will to stay healthy and live longer. Whether you are poor or a billionaire, you have all the opportunities to take care of your physical and mental health to live more years.

* Knowledge

They say that knowledge is power, and to have this means that you will be able to know and seek more of the better things that life has to offer for us. You can buy education in schools, but you can’t buy the greatest education you can learn from your parents, elders, friends, and even from strangers.


* Experiences
They say that experience is the best teacher, and all those things that you have experienced in the past make you who you are in the present. You don’t need a million bucks to go out of your comfort zone. Continue to explore and learn more experiences in life.

* Eternal Life

You cannot buy your salvation with money and gold. To earn it, you have to obey God’s commandments.

Not all people have the wisdom on things that are important. Having wisdom is very important for it can help you decide and choose the right things. You cannot purchase wisdom with money. But the fear of the lord is the beginning of wisdom.

* Understanding

You cannot earn understanding by getting rich. You earn it by practicing what you preach. You acquire it by putting your knowledge and wisdom into actions. Remember that only when you actually do it that you can understand it.

* Real friends

When you feel like everyone is against you, real and true friends will always be there for you. There may not be a lot but you can really count on them. You don’t need to have a mansion or luxury cars to have true friends.

Home isn’t a building, home is where your heart feels safest and at peace. Home is you and your family. A simple inexpensive house can be a great and precious home.

* Wealth

Wealth doesn’t always mean money, it can be your health, family or friends.

A skill can be learned but to have a talent on something is innate. You were born with talents. No one can take it from you and you’re the only one who can hone and improve what has been gifted to you.

* Peace of mind

This is very hard to have with all the things that are constantly bothering us. So let unnecessary people and things go if it only makes your life toxic.
* Acceptance
Acceptance is one of the hardest things we can ever give to a situation. But having an accepting heart will help us have peace of mind.

* Truth

The truth may be harsh but it’s better than being lied to. The truth will set you free, and you can enjoy that freedom even though you don’t have any money.

* Good manners

No matter how you dress and fix yourself if you have bad manners, you will remain unpleasant to others. This is a common thing that people should have so that they can give you the same thing that you give them.

* Common sense

Common sense means good judgment in making decisions. It can be a bit hard to be decided right away without thinking of the consequences but having common sense will help you see things clearer and decide well.

It’s free to smile and laugh! Do your best to overcome sadness. Being pessimistic will lead you nowhere. Being cheerful and seeing the brighter side of life will change your perspective on things in a positive way and will motivate you to become a better person
* Courage
Taking risks may seem scary, but having courage in your heart will help you conquer your fears. You don’t need a lot of money to be brave. What you need is to believe in yourself and the people who depend on you.

.* Inner beauty

No matter how much make-up you put on your face, if you belittle other people, you are never going to be beautiful. What you are on the inside, resonates on the outside.

* Humility

In a world where the need to broadcast your achievements is the measure of success, being humble is a bit hard to do. Let your actions do the talking and always remember to keep your feet on the ground.

* Kindness

People can be very mean most of the time, but it should never be an excuse to do the same. Kindness can go a long way and can make a big impact on other people. You can always be kind to others whether your wallet is full or empty.

*Good night’s sleep

You may afford to sleep in a five-star hotel but if your mind and heart are troubled, you can’t have a good night’s sleep. Get a good night’s sleep by always having a clean conscience.

* Compassion

You don’t need to be rich to listen to people’s hearts. You don’t need money to feel the suffering of other people. All you need to have is a compassionate heart to be in the shoes of others.

* Contentment

In this day and age where things just keep evolving and improving, it’s very hard to be contented with what you have. But if you learn to be satisfied, you will learn when it is too much and you have more than enough. When you have contentment in life, money becomes insignificant.

* Loyalty

This can be very hard to find these days, so when people have your back and are truly loyal to you, learn to appreciate and cherish them. Choose the people who are loyal to you because they love you, not the people who are just loyal to you because they can get money from you.

* Moral support

Your loved ones, family, and best friends will always give you moral support for free. They are your best support system. Hence, always appreciate and value them.

* Dreams

Everyone can have sweet dreams. Even babies smile on their dreams. And those smiles cannot be bought by money.

* Prayers

You can always pray, anytime and anywhere as long as you have faith. The power of your prayers doesn’t depend on your financial status, but in your faith and righteousness.

* Imagination

It’s free to imagine. Having an imaginative mind lets you create the most beautiful things. We all have that, we just need to dig deeper and think broader.

* Luck

Luck may not always be on our side but when it is, we should be thankful and happy.

* Blessings

God gives blessings according to our works. He blesses the righteous, not the wicked. And it doesn’t matter whether you’re wealthy or destitute.
