A natural state, I'm sought by all. Go without me, and you shall fall. In times past you'd me when you spend, and use me when you eat to no end. What am I?
Common Wrong Answers
“Wealth”
Wealth is often sought after, but it does not directly relate to the idea of falling or the natural state referenced in the riddle.
“Health”
Health is indeed important and sought by many, but it doesn't encompass the concept of spending or eating as mentioned in the riddle.
“Freedom”
Freedom is a desirable state for many, but it does not connect with the ideas of balance in spending and eating, nor does it imply a state where one would fall without it.
