WOW nice to see everybody is looking at monetary riches. I am the richest I just had a granddaughter and couldn't be happier and money can't change the baby in my arms right now(my daughter is typing this cause my hands are full) just remember what is monetary value and how much can you place on the worth of a person. http://www.thefreedictionary.com/monetary+value
