Is it Easy?

It’s easy enough to be merry with lots of money to spend,
It’s easy enough to be generous, when everyone thinks you a friend;
And when you’ve no need to be thrifty, it’s easy to cut a dash.
Yet remember this—‘tis a fluky world, look out if there comes a crash!
For the things you buy with money are never the things that last,
And the friends you made in the easeful days won’t stay when those days are past;
So if you are wise you will fling aside the mere amassing of wealth:
And if you must be a millionaire, find out your friends by stealth.
