Introduction
For ages, humans have tried to derive the true meaning of life and the associations that they make during their lifetime. With the many ideologies that are floated around, it is easy for people to lose site of the things that have deeper meaning. Capitalism has brought on a different face in the nature of human beings.

Over the course of my life, I have had a chance to meet with many people some of whom have had significant impact and others have had much less of an impact. However, none of the people that I have met in my life that can be replaced by money despite the fact they may or may not have had significant impact. One of the persons that I have met in the course growing up personally and professionally is divorced husband. Together with have had a child, who at this point is still under the age of 18 years.
