my dear friends :

　　good afternoon ！i’m very glad to make a speech here .today my topic “is money everything?”

　　today more and more people want to get more money , more and more people want to get a good job for more money. if you have a rich family ,or your father is a boss or a manager you’ll be glad. maybe you’re proud of that .

　　in a word ,they can do everything they like with money .they can get whatever they want .do you think so? my friends ,can money really bring us everything we want?

　　in a way,of course ,money is really very important to us all. without money ,we can do nothing and can’t live on .

　　but we must know that money can’t bring us everything .with money ,we can buy many things indeed ,but we can’t buy knowledge ,we can’t buy time ,we can’t buy true love and so on .

　　these are the most precious things in the world .if a person has none of them ,though he has a great deal of money , he is still poor .once i heard two men ,one is rich ,but he felt lonely and sad ,when he was sick ,or when he was in trouble , no one came to help him .he had no good friends .he could’t enjoy himself even though he had so much money .what a pity !

　　but the other felt happy every day ,because so many good friends loved him ,helped him .although he was poor ,he enjoyed himself . as we know ,who’s the richest person in the world ?you’ll tell me loudly “bill gates” right .he’s the richest person .and bill tells people “money isn’t everything.”

　　so i should say to all of you ,my friends ,money isn’t everything ,we can’t always think of money first ,we should work hard ,we should be interested in our work .

　　as students ,we must work hard ,we can’t ask our parents to buy expensive coats to become rich .we can’t do anything wrong to make money .

　　money can’t bring us everything ,we can’t become the servant of the money .we should be the master of ourselves .come on ,we should think more about our study ,our parents .
