Money and wealth as the major religions in world.

[alpamar99]

More than Half of the life span of the human race is centred on making of money or wealth.

Because without it, what would we eat? We need money to have the freedom to buy things that we need and almost all of the time, these things are needed. Water. Food. Clothes. All that needs money to buy and it takes time to accumulate one. However, lets not forget that money is only a medium of exchange to the things that we need. Happiness by heart can't be bought by that.

like you said, reality is bitter but it is reality.
even though some people say that happiness is not only about money but from your explanation we should already know that we will live hard if we don't have money.
this is why almost everyone is more concerned with money than anything. a lot of violence and conflict caused by money.
Lots of civil wars are based on money and lots of people don't trust each other because of money problems.
it's bad but reality says so

The point being is that money should not be the center of our lives. It can be earned and there's lots out there waiting. It should not be worshipped and cause war between brothers. Violence will never be the solution to hunger and indifference. Its the humility and generosity.

it's true, but on the other hand everyone's greed will always be there as long as we are alive.
and things like this are most likely to be anticipated if we can control ourselves so as not to be carried away by lust and greed.
but things like this are certainly not easy because indeed things like this are the most difficult things in navigating life.
but if we pass and make it through it will be very good and will successfully navigate life.

There's a saying which go thus "Money is the root of evils", in which I somehow believe in too because by the time most people begin making this money they seem to forget what religious is or let me say they pay less attention to it. But unfortunately, money can not buy everything.

I think things like this depend on each other's perspective because again everyone has their own view on this matter. regardless of the saying I actually want to say that money is the source of the problem it is based on greedy people and not everyone is like that although most of them are. but the few people who don't do that you can't equate it. regardless of whether they forget their religion or not it is their personal life with their spirituality and we cannot interfere in that.

Money is just a tool that allows each person to build their life, but how this tool is used is a separate story in each case. You can use this tool for the benefit of yourself, for the benefit of others, for the benefit of yourself and others, for the benefit of yourself, but for the evil of others. We can partially agree with the statement that money is the root of all evil, but only because in modern conditions of life in human civilization it is almost impossible to do without money and they accompany us in all aspects, both good and bad. Almost the same can be said about religion, when instead of bringing goodness and tolerance into this world, religion, on the contrary, is used for hatred and sowing hatred between people. Therefore, I would like to say that money and health are really akin to religion in the modern world, but you just shouldn't go to extremes and build only these two concepts into the whole meaning of your life.

actually the meaning of money is quite simple but not simple enough with what they control because it is indirectly at this time in some cases it is not people who control money but on the contrary money is what controls most of the people who exist today.
on the other hand, as you said, money is basically almost as sensitive as religion which if we go the wrong way will cause considerable divisions between everyone.

Money would not be needed in ideal World where people are honest and trust each other. When you need home in such world, people would help you build it for free knowing the kindness will be reciprocated. When you need to eat, you plunk corn from your neighbor's farm and the neighbor will be full of joy that someone has benefitted from his work. I think money/currency would be needed in society where people don't trust each other

in a fact, money is the on of the other important thing to have, every single place and time. money need for everything, and wealth be main destination to live a life.
for me, its hard to say that money and wealth is religion, they just destination, not last, but one of the other destination to fill your daily and desire. maybe, the other people think that this two think is their religion.

[Betwrong]

people look for money for daily needs, but people who seek wealth when they get it will satisfy desires
a lot of people have been trapped and didn't use it for investment until they finally went bankrupt

The mistake of many people is that he is complacent when he has money and only uses it for pleasure without thinking for investment and business, when the condition of his money is exhausted he returns to zero again and this is what makes us always have to invest in many places and crypto is a good choice for now this.

You guys are right, both of you and everyone in this thread saying that money should be invested in something instead of just spent on fleeting pleasures.

But what is the best place to invest your money in? Real estate? Gold? Crypto? In my opinion it's education. First and foremost, invest in your education, guys. Without it even if you accidentally earn big money you'll quickly lose it, and even if you will not, you'll have no idea how to spend your money wisely anyway.

Once, money was the solution to the problem of subsistence farming, with a classic exchange. As production became more complex and the assortment expanded, direct exchange became more and more complicated. Money appeared to solve the problem. Then, when money became "higher" than a commodity, it became a method of accumulating and forming wealth. Today, money is also synonymous with wealth. But now we have the opportunity to use them more widely - to buy goods, real estate, invest in our development and education of children, become investors in developing projects, start our own business. The only question is to earn them, and find the strength, not to skip them, but to invest, for example, in education. Perhaps this is the most difficult choice - how to deal with money?

Money or wealth is the dream destination of many people in the world

Religion is the total believe of a group people on a particular being.
Most or everyone in the world today in which I am included believe in accumulating of wealth and making money.

More than Half of the life span of the human race is centred on making of money or wealth.

Making money legally or illegally, accumulating of wealth is the believe of most people in the world.

I stand to be corrected or cencitize

You have clearly said that money and wealth is only your ambition .I think we have to respect who just thing other except its like religion you said about .Religion is a believe you never buy it with money and wealth.One thing is clearly known to us that we have to die .A person who are theistic and he has a ambition also what happen after death .For me money and wealth is nothing ,I have to follow my religion first .Money and wealth will never my religion and ambition .

[ninis45]

every normal person is a natural thing as a human being who has reason and ambition but behind that there is a religion that becomes a belief to prioritize spiritual rather than intellectual as a guide to peace of mind and satisfaction with what you have so you can be grateful and not fall on endless greed

[Huppercase]

Yeah, everyone is working throughout their life to make that money but you know the money is just made kf paper and doesn't hold any intrinsic value. Wealth is different and you can't become rich by working, it only happens when your money work for you which we call it as passive income.

Your explanation doesn't quite match some scenarios. Mark Zuckerberg for example work his ass off by becoming the CEO of Facebook, despite now that he doesn't do most of the codings and design, it all started by him till he was able to achieved what he had today.
Ex Microsoft boss, Bill Gate work from home until he became one of the richest billionaires we have today.

[Ozero]

Money and wealth should not be called the main religions of the world. This is a very perverse and unworthy comparison for religion. The main religions of the world do not urge us to get rich. On the contrary, they preach moderation, the simplicity of ordinary life, and restraint. Only those who violate religious tenets strive for wealth and accumulation.
On the other hand, there is nothing wrong with wealth if it is earned legally. We live in a material world and must satisfy our physical needs.

Agreed, I live in a Christian country where we adhere to our religion to the statement, but I believe that people are changing because they are becoming greedy with money. If you listen to what the priests or pastors have to say about this, they will truly state that when it comes to money, people will change because they are becoming greedy. Aside from that, they always say that whatever you have right now is worthless if you die, because you can't bring it with you. I believe that what we should do instead is help each other and not lose focus of our religious beliefs just because of the abundance of wealth.

Regarding that I have a personal opinion that wealth is certainly a legal thing for all religions,
Of course the wealth that is allowed is to get it lawfully and use it with what is useful and beneficial for the good of course,
On the other hand, when we use our wealth for useless things, of course it's not allowed but again we can't manage it all

I don't agree with your last part. You are right that everybody spends most of his life working and making money, but this doesn't come from the desire to become rich. It's rather that money is necessary in our society, without it we couldn't pay rent or buy food. We all need money to survive. However there is a difference between having a good life and trying to become rich. If money would be our main goal in life then why do we take days off work, and why don't we have jobs on weekends? I believe that most of us strive for a good work life balance. Humans are not made to work 24/7, we need time with friends and family to regenerate our batteries. There are more important things in life than money.

In an ideal world it would have been like you described, and even in our not so perfect world many people live like this, but unfortunately not everybody. Very far from it, actually. There are many places in the world where people are working all the time without days off, and, as you rightly said, not to become rich, but just to have something to eat and wear, and to feed their kids.

Until very recently many Chinese IT companies were employing the so called "996 working hour system". It's when people work from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm, 6 days per week. It was deemed illegal by China's Supreme People's Court only on 27 August 2021.

[Alisha-k]

The importance of money in our society cannot be overemphasized but that doesn't make everyone's mindset centred on money.
Yes everyone wants to make money, live happy, stay in health and have peace of mind but unlike your last statement, for some of us money isn't our topmost priority, we'll be happy to accumulate so many of it but if the means is going to cost our peace of mind, we'll rather search for an alternative.

It is always easy to make money from money. Those who have extra money they should not waste it or spend it on their pressures.

If they could invest their money in good projects or crypto, they could get much more returns and can increase their total worth over the time.

These days smart workers and people following the passion are getting successful in money making. In each and everything there is money, you need to be popular or you need to have good capital to make money. People are more cautious in spending compared to the past, because everyone understood the pain of moving the life during the pandemic. Very few get the opportunity to follow their passion, because to fulfil family needs most of the young generation sacrifice their passion and continue a day job.

I think we should not mix up religion and the dreams of making money.
I agree that people are more interested in acquiring more and more money but we should not mix it up with religion no religion teaches it, followers, to acquire money in illegal ways.
Religion is a personal matter of every individual which should not be mixed up with the greed of acquiring more money.

That's right we have to agree first that basically all religions don't teach how to earn money illegally,
everything does require money but if the method we use to get money is illegal such as stealing of course it is opposed

Yes because for them to earn Money is to COLLECT LEGALLY like what churches are doing 

How can you consider a Illegally collected money or making money? example in your country Bitcoin is illegal but in the majority of the world this is not, so is this still wrong to collect and make profit?

I think we should not mix up religion and the dreams of making money.

But that is the trend , connecting crypto in everything in the world.

I agree that people are more interested in acquiring more and more money but we should not mix it up with religion no religion teaches it, followers, to acquire money in illegal ways.
Religion is a personal matter of every individual which should not be mixed up with the greed of acquiring more money.

actually it is indeed part of religion because remember that churches are taking money from their members .
