Wealth

Wealth is the abundance of valuable resources or valuable material possessions. This includes the core meaning as held in the originating old English word weal, which is from an Indo-European word stem. An individual, community, region or country that possesses an abundance of such possessions or resources to the benefit of the common good is known as wealthy.

The modern concept of wealth is of significance in all areas of economics, and clearly so for growth economics and development economics yet the meaning of wealth is context-dependent. At the most general level, economists may define wealth as "anything of value" that captures both the subjective nature of the idea and the idea that it is not a fixed or static concept. Various definitions and concepts of wealth have been asserted by various individuals and in different contexts. Defining wealth can be a normative process with various ethical implications, since often wealth maximization is seen as a goal or is thought to be a normative principle of its own.

    Wealth

    by: Katatonia

    Cool night gave my truth for a lie
    Will you be here when I try
    I'm not set cannot do it yet
    Will you be here when I try
    Our wealth breeds emptiness
    Another day to compress
    My lips are dry you gave me drugs to try
    Hold me when I die
    The sky has frozen to a wall
