Family can never be replaced with money or luxury, they will all finish and your family will remain to pull you up when you are down

Family for me comes first, because I have seen a lot in this world to know that family is the biggest luxury there is.
It can be relative though, but for me my family comes before anything else.

Considering quality of life, family is the most important. Having people that love you for you can not be equaled. Luxury/money won’t love you, but family will.

True,family will stand for you all your entire life while everyone has left even when you become poor and therefore luxury should make us forget our families because their our everything.

If ever I'm given the choice to chose between the two, I'll definitely choose family. Luxury can make you live in an easy and comfortable life but it lacks the love and support that a family can give.

It'd be a lonely existence. And the more money you have, fhe higher the likelihood that the people around you become fake... at least that's my opinion
Your right! We can't live without our family.

Well, the saying goes, "you can't pick your family", and I feel that this is the tricky part of your question. I am fortunate to be close with my family and couldn't imagine going without them so I would chose family every time, but I know many people who are not as lucky and would chose the luxurious life away from their hateful family any day!

Family is way more important to me because luxury can be lonely to some without family and friends. Also, you never really know how much time you have with family members so you need to take advantage while you have the chance.

I think that luxury and family go hand in hand, and are not mutually exclusive. Having a good family is a luxury of it's own, and can lead to greater luxuries in the future. Most people with a stable and loving family strive for luxury in order to sustain the family and support them. Without family, luxury is not nearly as meaningful, and cases to fully exist.

When we leave this life, it will not matter how "luxurious" our experience was. What will matter are the relationships we shared and the people we loved.

I would choose my family over luxury any day of the week. While it's always nice to have nice things, it's certainly not a priority. Even without a luxurious lifestyle, I still have way too many excess things in my life. I can live with just the essentials as long as I have my family with me.

I know that's not the same choice everyone would make. I'm just a big believer in the idea that everything that glitters isn't gold.
