I think most people already have answered this question.

Just look at your life and what exactly is important in it.
 
I think fame is key, because with fame comes both money and love.

You will likely get a heavy ‘love’ response in the poll.

But people are apt to say one thing and do another.
There is nothing like a critical review of our actions to tell us what we really choose.
 
Love is the only attribute that will get you into Heaven, the other two can lead you astray.

Fame may or may not get you the other two. There are a bunch of famous criminals who have neither money nor love.

I was all ready to pick “love” but then I read this and it is true that I pursue material things or “money” more than love.
 
I’m going with money. It seems like the average person can find love if they try, and so you would be wasting a wish to choose love, because you can attain it by natural means. And if you use the money you gain correctly, you can acquire fame. However, you can’t necessarily use fame to acquire money. Take viral internet videos, for example. People can be famous because of those videos but they don’t usually make a profit from their fame.

Yes, I agree that fame doesn’t always get you money. Search ‘Wonga man 4 min loop’ on youtube and be mystified. If you could make a profit out of that you’d be a genius.

It seems believers and nonbelievers are going to answer the poll differently because of how each party values and understands the concept of love. For believers love has eternal value whereas for nonbelievers love is a survival instinct (at least that is my understanding of your view, correct me if I am wrong, please).

Dictionary.com defines “love” as “a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person”.

While I would say that sexual attraction is a survival instinct, I’m not sure about love. It’s possible that it could be such, or it could be an “unintended” emergent property.

If you consider that God is Love. Then the answer should be obvious.

However if you have some messed up idea of what Love is - then you may have messed up priorities because of your misconceptions on love.

I can really like my car but - I don’t love my car. It comes down to thinking of what it is we mean to say when we say it.

God is Love.

I already have God's love, thanks. I'll take **wisdom** even though it is not on the poll and I doubt it would make me any happier than it did Solomon.
 
Love. ❤️

Money and fame can not bring true happiness :nope:

God bless :byzsoc:
