6. Health

Here in reality most of the hard earned money is actually spent on points (1) Shopping (2) Living (6) Health and for some (5) Debts .

Hardly people spent on Investments or education which are in reality provides guaranteed returns.

Guaranteed returns means you are bound to receive more income had you spent on them.

1. Living 
2. Health
3. Education
4. Investments
