There is so much that money can buy that shouldn’t – where do I begin?!?!…nuclear weapons, in fact any weapon; private education (because high quality education should be free for everyone, all ages); political power; human trafficking; clean, safe water; vitamins and minerals (because everyone in the world should have a free supply of the RDA of all necessary vitamins and minerals)…and more!! 😉

I live in the UK and this year I have paid for work from a private osteopath and a private dentist. My mother in law paid for a private knee replacement. Why might that be wrong?

My contribution to what money shouldn’t buy: a second home in an area where there is already a shortage of housing.
