Quite thought provoking indeed...

1) Dhritharashtra was attached to his eldest son Result: Destruction of all his sons 2) Kaikeyi was attached to her son Result: Despised by her son and separated from him 3) Dushasana was attached to his Duryodhan Result: His painful end due to his brother 4) Kumbakarna was attached to Ravana Result: His own destruction due to Ravana's evil deed 5) Duryodhana was attached to his crown Result: Was not alive to enjoy the kingdom that he fought for. 6)Vaali was attached to his strength Result: His strength could not protect him from reaching his end The list can go on...

What is the learning? Whatever we are attached to is a clear indication of where our life is heading and how it is going to end We create the blueprint of not only our own destruction but also of whatever we are attached to. So what is the solution? Be attached !! But just change the object of attachment Be like HANUMAN - who was only attached to the Lord Be like VIDURA - who was only attached to Dharma This will automatically make us objective and detached from everything else and we will be positive contributors to society as well In personal finance, till such time we are attached to money, our greed and fear themselves will wreak huge destruction upon our money by making us, insatiable speculators. Hence stop chasing money, chase meaningful goals like children's education, their marriage, their career, your retirement, your dream business, and your desire to give back to society. Any of these is better than chasing money for the sake of money.
