"One key question for breaking free of consumer culture’s hamster wheel."

Watch the remixed video entitled “What Would You Do if Money Were No Object” which takes Alan Watts' (1915-1973), the British philosopher and writer of the cult-classic The Way of Zen, ideas and remixes them into a short video which Brain Pickings summed up as a video where, "...Watts asks the seemingly simple question of what you would do if money were no object."

After viewing the film read the following quote:

"If you say that money is the most important thing, you’ll spend your life completely wasting your time: You’ll be doing things you don’t like doing in order to go on living, that is, in order to go on doing things you don’t like doing — which is stupid!"

Do you agree with the statement or disagree with the statement?  Why or why not?  Don't forget, a minimum of five sentences is required.  Start Scribbling!
