    Here are some potential responses to the speaking questions: 1. There is no single answer for how much money is enough, as it depends on one's lifestyle, priorities, financial obligations, and future goals. Most financial experts recommend having 3-6 months' worth of living expenses saved as an emergency fund. 2. Some reasons why people care too much about money include wanting financial security, deriving a sense of self-worth from wealth/possessions, comparing themselves to others, and associating money with happiness and life satisfaction. 3. Money is important to me for achieving financial independence and having the means to support myself and pursue my goals, but it is not the sole determinant of my happiness or self-worth.
