Hi everybody,
I need some advice how to use the idiom: last but not least.

It's correct my example:My family, health, money and last but not least my relationships are very important to me?

Thank you in advance,
Mojra

.
Your sentence is fine if your relationships are as important as your family. Use the phrase only sparingly, and when the last item is relatively important.
