Which is more important: money or health?

Here’s a clue from Joseph Heller, “Health can’t buy you money.”

  1. I appreciate his point and wit more than this comment might suggest, but still:

    1. If you’re really sick, you can’t earn much money, so you’d better get it while you’re healthy or you’re out of luck. If you are healthy, you can earn money.

    2. Money can only buy you so much health. Better, food, drugs, care, leisure. Then you run up against the diagnosis money can’t bribe away.
