If you had a choice between wisdom, beauty, and riches, which would you choose?

I would choose wisdom, because wisdom is always there and it grows, whereas beauty vanishes with time, and so may riches.If you had a choice between wisdom, beauty, and riches, which would you choose?
Wisdom, in the end, you win out. It's not the goods of this earth that bring happiness...If you had a choice between wisdom, beauty, and riches, which would you choose?
Beauty, great beauty can bring many riches, if you are knowledgeable of its uses.
With you I would choose wisdom, as most people do not like you for your riches or beauty but your personality.
It would be useless if you don't have wisdom and have lots of money (richest) you might end up losing it all.





But anyways though a lot of people have wisdom in other countries it doesn't make them rich. in another hand, other countries you don't need to go to college just to get rich and famous or get a degree. In fact there are people who becomes rich without finishing high school.





What does finishing school have to do with wisdom? Wisdom comes from knowledge. Fill your my mind with knowledge so that you can be wise.





Beauty lies on the eyes of the beholder





I know I didn't exactly choose because I believe in balance
I would choose wisdom. Why? Because there is much beauty in wisdom. And with beauty and wisdom I am sure there are ways to acquire riches. But those things mean nothing without love, reason and someone to share all of it with. That may sound cheesy, or whatever, but it is the truth of the matter.
Nature is all these things....why choose only one?





Nature is beautiful, rich in abundance, and inherently wise.


We are part of Nature.


If we look upon ourselves in a superficial way, we will be blind to the inherent wisdom that Nature has given us all, and the beauty and richness of spirit that lies within.
Wisdom. I have beauty and as I grow older I find it actually seems to have more disadvantages than advantages. With beauty comes vanity, jealousy, etc. Don't get me wrong I love being beautiful but there is so much more to life. With a great deal of wisdom you can do pretty much anything. Wisdom is always growing and that is a beautiful thing. Money tends to bring out the ugly sides in people so you can't go wrong with wisdom.


Hope I helped :)
Riches....wisdom and beauty can't pay the rent.
Wisdom.





Wisdom will get you the Riches.





Besides, Beauty is relative to the time and place.
Initually I was going to say wisdom, but then I thought, riches, because if I were rich I could afford to go to school and get a great education to become wise, and if I did not have beauty I could always spend my riches on becoming beautiful through surgery, personal trainers, fashion, makeup, etc... LOL. Gotta love the vain, yet rational thinking of the age we're in, eh?
true but wisdom can be gained over time and riches through wisdom!!





so what I'd do would be:


ask for beauty


then gain wisdom through time and experience


and finally use that wisdom to gain riches





=)





but if you'd ask which I preferred I'd have agreed wisdom.
I would definitely choose wisdom. Beauty would be nice, but it's not really that great. Also, as you said, it fades with time. Riches are even more fickle, and the old adage is true - money doesn't bring happiness. Wisdom, however, brings true happiness and fulfilment. It stays with you long after your beauty has gone and your last penny has been spent. People want to spend time with wise people, and I like to think that wisdom would allow me to help people and solve their problems.
innocence... i know it's not on the list.. but there's something pure about it. there is so much to learn and be done. beauty is for people who can';t get through things without their minds ( no offence ..) and riches are.; well a vicious greedy circle.. wisdom is tempting, but where is the eagerness to learn, the hunger for discovery and all. ok there..
Wisdom !
wisdom...





as you said, wisdom only grows with time..
Choosing wisdom is also choosing beauty and riches at the same time, and also being able to define what those words really mean. With wisdom, you get to really understand that riches is more than money and beauty is more than the faces we see. Wisdom is a personal thing. You are the only one who knows the power your mind has, and no one can tell you the level of wisdom you really own. Some say it comes along with age, but I just think you gain it with every experience you face, everyday of the week. Wisdom can never be taken away from you deep down. Wisdom is beautiful in itself.
WISDOM


no doubt about it





Beauty is only skin deep.





Riches can't buy the most important things in life.





Wisdom, ah, wisdom. It can help you through life's trials, and help you to see your blessings.





Have a great life.
i would say power but since thats not on the list, i'll settle for riches...
WISDOM, *****!!!!
No such choice is possible because there would have to be a person who could grant it to you. Or a leprechaun.
