The Five Friends (at least) we need to have

1. Older (and wiser) friends.

Because they've been there and they did that. And the wisdom they gained can be helpful to you too.

2. Friends who are parents and those with responsibilities. Examples are not limited to:

   Mommy/Daddy/Breadwinner/Head of the Family friends - who will teach you about parenting, selflessness, and what it feels like now that it's no longer about you.

   Friends who are good with money - sit up and take notice - regardless of income, it's how they manage their finances with what they have, what they do when they have a lot and what they do when they do not have enough.

3. Friends who travel and who knows how to have fun.

We often hear that the world is a book and those who don't travel only get to read a page. Friends who travel can give you a different perspective about different culture and countries, when you travel, you return with a different perspective and insight. Also, choose friends who knows how to have fun because...why would you even want to hang out with someone so blah?

4. Friends who influence you to become a better person.

I do not think I need to stress/elaborate on this any further.

5. Friends you can help.

Because you become more blessed when you become a blessing to others. It is best to always pay it forward.
