Money addiction

[Zlantann]

On a scale of 1-10 I will say 9 out of every 10 are addicted to making more money even though not everyone attain this height at the end of the day. We live in an every hiking economic society. Prices of commodities keep changing as each day passes by. This has invariably triggered the addiction to more money as the usual earnings is no longer enough to maintain once life style.

Many have been forced into adapting to their current spending ability, others have deviced means to earn more so as to meet up others has choosen the looting method just to survive.

Based on this Ninety percent of people in every sector of life has higher chances of looting only that most people are not privileged to get the opportunity to carryout what's in their minds

Anyone who fails to make more money in this current economic condition might not have enough to cover his needs. The cost of goods and services is going high every day, which is making people seek alternative means to make extra money since the minimum wage in some countries still remains the same. I don't see this situation as an addiction to make more money but a struggle to survive. I don't think people will want to work themselves to death because they want to be rich but many will do it just to survive.

You didn't back your view with any research work so I don't think your view that 90% of people will steal if they have the opportunity. There are still many people who have integrity even in the face of poverty. There is news of a cab driver who returned a huge amount a passenger forgot in his car. If you check the internet, you will see more news of how very poor people refused to steal when they had a clear chance of becoming rich fraudulently. I will agree that many people will loot if they have the privilege but they might not be ninety percent like you indicated.

In my opinion, there is no one who doesn't want a lot of money because that is human nature. Especially in this era, to survive you need money. Therefore, if asked, everyone definitely wants a lot of money, it just depends on how they can make a lot of money to meet their needs or want to achieve certain goals.

[moneystery]

when you need money to meet your needs, it's not an addiction to money, but rather you need money to survive. never mind 9 out of 10 people, i think that 10 out of 10 people will also have the same opinion that if given the opportunity they would make more money than they can get, because that is their need. especially in today's difficult times and the prices of necessities are increasingly expensive, it requires people to be smarter in making money for their needs or the needs of their families. unless they have a little error in their brains, maybe they won't worry about money.

Money addiction

In my opinion, when we talk about the word "addiction", we are talking about bad things and evils in society. Meanwhile, making money is to meet life's needs and to survive in this world, so I wouldn't call making money an addiction.

Making money is an extremely difficult and sometimes even life-threatening task in high-risk jobs. So in your opinion, is anyone stupid enough to be addicted to things that can get them into trouble, even endanger their lives? Making money is our only way if we don't want to be eliminated from this world.

This statistics isn't correct but there's no doubt that people will choose making more money instead of reducing their expenses to stay on budget in life. Being hungry for more money isn't a bad things when it makes you to double your hustle in the right ways than doing things illegal just to get the money. As my friend always says, having a problem of too much money is better than having a problem of not having enough money. If you do the right things and get more money, you can determine how you'll spend the money either giving it away to charity or increasing your investment to retain your wealths. Price of commodity are raising because of inflation and you can fight that by making the right investment and not having to work more for money but make your money work for you.

Many have been forced into adapting to their current spending ability, others have deviced means to earn more so as to meet up others has choosen the looting method just to survive.

This is a choice, having to do unethical things to make money isn't the last option of a man and incase anybody reading this is thinking about doing the same just know "A good name is better than silver and gold". Money isn't everything life should be about, your reputation is as important as the money you want to have. If you're doing the ethical things and getting money, I won't call that addiction as addiction is mostly associated with negative outcomes.

Those they should be called money addicts are those that make use of illegal means to achieve having money, because by nature, everyone of us seems to have desires and interest for money, because we will need money to make life and fulfil dreams, but those that got it in the from way are such that are addicted with it, they can use any means to make sure they have money even at the cost of others.

[TheUltraElite]

Being frugal is a good trait and there is a difference between being a miser and being frugal about spending even though these two words come up as synonyms in books.

In order to adapt to rising costs and livelihood, the people who have become frugal are only a small fraction of the earning population. Most of them are getting a job and spending as much as they earn. They have not become frugal rather they are addicted to spending.

But this is good for us bitcoiners, because are frugal by nature of bitcoin. Our stashes will increase in price as time passes.

Doing things on earning money isnt really that wrong as long it would be legal or on the right way then it should really be just that fine but on the moment that you are already doing illegal things then this is where shit things happen. Money addiction? Honestly, we are all trying out very best on accumulating money as much and as possibly as we could because we do know that if we do have tons of money then we can buy all the money that we do like and this is something that we are really that thriving or hoping for. Im not saying it is really that a form of addiction or some sort but rather this would really be just that a very common step that someone would really be making because we do love on earning money and buying all the things that we do want. This is the main reason on why we do work, making business or investment
is to earn more money.

[MetaMii]

I wouldn't say money addiction, I would say quest to live a comfortable life. We have to work continuously non stop to earn a living if not we will starve and won't be able to provide our necessary needs as humans. Commodities keep increasing in price everyday so therefore we have to double the hustle to be able to purchase them. And one needs more money because more problems keep piling up.
   An average married man with 6 kids will have to double his work in order to be able to fend for his home.

[nngella]

ahmm, i think by making this kind of claim it would be wise to cite any references to make your claim credible.  That aside, I think people just want to attain something and most of those things need money.  You want good health? you need money for membership in the gym , buy a bike, get running shoes, eat healthy food.  You want to sleep early at night? you need to have sufficient money to stop grinding or working overtime.  It is really difficult to get what you want without money.

. I think you already know why we are addicted on money or finding more money, it is because money is everything, you will not survive if you don't have money to buy your needs even small children know that before they matured, that is why when they grow older it is registered in thier mind that money is very important and the next thing is they will become addicted on finding more and more money like no ending and it will end up on addiction of finding money.

Making money is our only way if we don't want to be eliminated from this world.

OPs mindset towards money spending or 'addiction' in money like he tagged the word words to cannot be applied in anyone's financial life and management. First and foremost, the real essence why people look for money and engage in many activities that will bring them money is simply to be able to solve problems with it because over time money has become the most essential commodity of life in the sense that you practically cannot achieve any milestones if you lack money in today's world.

What I'm saying now is that, due to the essential need of money in our lives today, you cannot do without spending money. The only aspect we can continue to advocate about is the investment aspect. And when you ask, I will say that we all invest with one goal at the end of the day and it is to have something to spend when you no longer have anything to spend.

[electronicash]

can a person really be addicted to money? if you are a poor person and have no means to make lots of money i guess you can not be addicted to it.

but he definitely going to need a lot of money to make his life comfortable but so are we. we all need money wherever we go, you can't survive without money. you have got to work and pay bills, it's a weight to carry every person today as a grim reality.  its a necessity for a person to find a job and earn money.

Most essential commodity indeed, because if we dont have this. Then how we would really be able to survive? We are hoping or wishing in a life to have that proper shelter,food,clothing and other stuffs on which for you to have comfortable living on which everything could be possibly if you do have the money. This is why people would really be thriving on acquiring or getting or earning money as much as they could no matter what are the things that they would really be doing as long they would be earning. This isnt some sort of addiction considering that this is really just that a normal way of living on trying to earning something. If earning money or getting
it will be a form of addiction then everyone is already addicted considering that we are working or having a business because we are really that targeting or aiming to have that more or lots of money.

Just as what others been saying above that it isnt really that wrong as long you are earning on the legal way on which you arent affecting someone nor really that getting into those non legal stuffs because this is a
different story considering that everything turns out to be that not right anymore on how you do acquire money. I dont really see the addiction on this one but rather that extreme greedy if people would really be
going into those far extents just for them to have that kind of earning. Greed is never been good and we should really be that knowing to have that contentment on the things that we do have
but since we are just human beings then having more money and tons of money will really be out primary target or goal in life which its normal.

Money is not everything but it is needed for survival in this life. Economy is going downward in some countries due to inflation and lack of proper management, and our marketers are very strict as they use all opportunities they have to make money from their fellow citizens.

Money addiction is general for both the rich and the poor because they both have needs for money and they cannot survive without money; therefore, money addiction is general.

Based on this Ninety percent of people in every sector of life has higher chances of looting only that most people are not privileged to get the opportunity to carryout what's in their minds

Some leaders are very good and have qualities of leadership, while some leaders are just there to loot money that is why in some countries where the leaders are selfish, there is always less development in the country.

but he definitely going to need a lot of money to make his life comfortable but so are we. we all need money wherever we go, you can't survive without money. you have got to work and pay bills, it's a weight to carry every person today as a grim reality.  its a necessity for a person to find a job and earn money.

Maybe we can just categorize this as a good addiction or a bad addiction, and if you are aiming to make more money to live a better life then I consider that as a good addiction but if you do make money illegally just to satisfy your need, then that can be a bad addiction which can lead into more greed and will put you on a bigger risk.

[stadus]

It's not money addiction, it's the need for money. You can't turn on your lights and gas if you have no money. We are slaves to work constantly because of the need to have money to live.

There are places where you don't need money but it would be in the most remote areas where the community lives in a slow lane.

Yes, I also prefer not to call it money addiction but it’s more on the extreme need for money because without money, it’s hard to see yourself survive in a community where money is almost everything. However, it’s not a requirement to make a lot of money to see yourself alive. But if you have aims and goals in life that you want to achieve so you can live a comfortable and convenient life, then work hard to get a decent amount of income. Money is not freely given, it’s something that an individual should work hard to be well compensated.

Both of you did a nice job by allowing us to know the need for more money vs how we make those money,  and other realities of time and how it goes,  the fact is that money is a chain and it most move around from ha d to hand, when you hodle the movement of money then you are abusing the chain connection,  this is why we have to make money in the right way and with the right mindset, I always say that before you make money, make sense,  this is the adage I use to survive most of the Time, because money is just a number and no one have the highest so the level of your financial freedom is determined by your knowledge on how to make money and also spend the money  correctly,  because it is easy to make money buy hard to control or spend money.

Try as much as possible to make more investment and buy only assets that increase in value instead of saving money in the bank, making the right financial decision is a path to way to financial freedom.,, addiction on the other hand is a totally different ball game, and  won't call money as an addiction,  but rather as greed level, because it is only greed that will make someone to involve on illegal means to get money.

I'm not sure whether or not to call it a money addiction. In my opinion, I believe that humans are greedy creatures by nature; we'll always crave more, and the same thing also applies to money; we're never satisfied; we keep wanting something extra. Unfortunately, the economy has gone downhill on a worldwide scale. It's pretty reasonable for money to be a primary goal in our lives, but ultimately, it's proven that money is capable of making you happier up to a specific degree. Living a comfortable and stress-free life should be our priority, not constantly maximizing our income.

[Maslate]

In my opinion, there is no one who doesn't want a lot of money because that is human nature. Especially in this era, to survive you need money. Therefore, if asked, everyone definitely wants a lot of money, it just depends on how they can make a lot of money to meet their needs or want to achieve certain goals.

Money is the ultimate goal why people work so hard and invest a lot of time so they can end up having a sufficient amount of income. Otherwise, if you stop on working and earning money, you will definitely struggle on living your life and survival would be at risk. That’s why people keep chasing to make more money, not actually to live a luxurious life but even if it means for survival only.
