When I think about the word richness, my mind immediately thinks about money and wealth, which I think is sad that I think like that, but society basically instills this mentality into each and every person today. Nowadays, people say without money you can't really get anywhere. This is somewhat true. You won't be able to do anything without money. It's a shame how much we depend on money to live our lives. But, with the evolution of technology and how fast the world is changing, this statement is sadly true. Others say money can't buy happiness. And to a certain extent, that is true too. But, a lot of people find happiness in materialistic things. To me, richness is having another day to live, and having a family and friends that love and support you in anything that you do. Personally, my family is at the bottom of the totem pole. I don't come from wealth and riches of money, but I come from a family rich in blessings from the Man above. Now, in terms of information richness, richness of information is essential in any situation, but especially important in those in which we are striving to communicate something that is difficult or nuanced. When two people are talking about the same thing, there is a greater possibility that we may pick up on many instances of information richness. The frequency with which information is presented may have an effect on the richness of the information. Having access to a wealth of material is really necessary when trying to communicate intricate or subtle concepts.
