Many think of the material things in life but more importantly I think teaching our children and grandchildren to be ethical is a must. Honesty, sincerity, caring, and mutual respect are qualities that money cannot buy. It is great to be able to buy things without worry but there is no feeling in the world like the feeling you get when you care enough to be honest and show respect for others and that respect is returned. So tell the truth, show respect for those around you, and reach out to someone who might need a hand up.
Obviously you must practice what you preach. Don't ask others to be honest if you are not. Don't look for respect if you do not respect others. It isn't always the easy road but it is always the right one.
