Money addiction

[ChiBitCTy]

This is simply not true, and really just a bunch of conjecture.  I mean where did you even get this number from? Being a financial advisor and working with all walks of life, I can promise you that 9 out of 10 people are NOT obsessed with money.  I would say it's not even close to that.  Maybe somewhere around 4 out of every 10, if that.

Really though, where did you get this number from.  What makes you think this??

[Wakate]

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

Maybe you are right or wrong but you just don't think everybody is like you that believe that every opportunity in life need to be utilized to steal funds and do something imoral. People are not actually like this. You just don't judge thinking everything has the potential to think like you. It is true that we all wants to make money but not everybody wants to make.monwy from the wrong path. We need to sensitize people that have such mentality of stealing and taking what does not belong to them just to make extra money. We need to make the world a better place for the young ones coming up so they would not have to believe that doing illegal things or participating in fraud is the only way forward.

There are people who only look for blessings in everything they do, this is related to their belief and confidence that it can make their life happier and feel sufficient. It's different with the nature of someone who wants to pursue a lifestyle, so whatever he does is to cover up a lifestyle that he's proud of, such as seeking approval from other people, and I'm sure that kind of person will actually make his life's burden heavier. therefore religious values need to be applied

Nowadays money has become a major need. because even to fulfill primary needs such as food, we need money to get it. Moreover, if we live in urban areas, if we don't have money then we might starve because we won't be able to buy food. But living in a village that is far from urban areas means money is also needed, but there people are not too addicted to money. Because to be able to eat we actually have to work in the fields and plant crops to harvest. I even found a remote village in Indonesia that did not use money for transactions. They still barter. that is, exchanging goods for goods. they seem isolated from world progress. But strangely, I saw that their smiles were much more beautiful than the smiles of people who live using technology. I saw genuine happiness on their faces. And for them money means nothing.

With your logic, 90% of people should be rich, is it the reality?

Being addicted to money doesn't mean that you allow yourself to do anything to make money even if it's exploiting the resources of money and you get more benefits than those who are actually working for it.

Addicted to money is highly subjective, and it may varies according to every individual, we may need more description to the word addiction here to discuss anything further.

This may or may not be true, it all depends on yourself in understanding money addiction. Because living in today's era is increasingly sophisticated and very competitive in all fields, making money and accumulating wealth is one of the factors that makes a person's life happy or can be called successful. But there are also some people whose success and happiness cannot be measured by money.

It cannot be denied that money is very important to be able to live a decent and healthy life, however if the desire to pursue money in any way without caring about how to get it in the right way then this can cause addiction so that it has a bad impact on someone who is addicted. One of the effects of addiction is that it makes us afraid of poverty, causing feelings of anxiety and stress.

I agree with you, that the numbers mentioned by the OP are not based on the results of research or surveys, and maybe if the OP said it was based on the results of a survey or research, then it would be better if the OP included the source that was the reference. So I agree with you that this is just conjecture, because there is no data that we can see.
However, I also won't blame what the OP said because maybe he could have said that because of his surroundings. But again, I think saying 9 out of 10 people is too much, I would agree more if it was 4 out of 10 people for example, as you said.
The reason is that if we look at what the OP said, there should be more bad people now. Although I cannot deny that crime is everywhere, if we compare it with the current human population, the figure will not reach 90%.

The general desires of a person depend on how they have been living their lives from the beginning and how exposed the luxuries of the world are to them. A person who has been living in a place where there are a lot of luxuries around them but has no reach to them because they don't have enough money for it, such people would have a strong desire to have a lot of money so that they can also have access to the luxuries of life that others have access to.

On the other hand, a person living in a place like you mentioned where money doesn't have much value because all people living there have the same status, there are no rich or poor having differences in accessing different materialistic things based on their statuses. People living in such environments wouldn't care much about money because they are not exposed to things that they can have with money, so their general desires are limited to what they see and what they have been seeing throughout their lives. 

[Renampun]

money has become a basic need for the majority of people in the world, so it is very natural that many people try hard to continue to earn money, it's just that many people take the wrong steps in making money, they do stupid things and are very greedy in their actions, but when everyone in a society that is greedy for money, there are many who feel that it is normal for money, in fact they don't want money too passionately, so I think the answer to your question will be very varied.

[mamesso]

The desire to make more money is a common thing in human life, because wealth can provide a sense of financial security to protect oneself and one's family from all financial problems such as living expenses and retirement. Having a lot of money can also provide financial freedom to fulfill all your desires in life, such as pursuing hobbies and other dreams that may not be fulfilled by financial constraints.
People who want to make more money have big dreams in life, including a sense of responsibility to their family to build a legacy for their children so that their lives are more secure and away from hardship. Not everyone is lucky even though they try day and night, due to different levels of luck, we still find many poor people who are still trying to achieve a level of financial freedom in their lives.

Money addiction is very real and what you said is not far from the truth, people will do almost anything to increase their money, because human needs are insatiable, the more money you get the more your standard of living will increase. It's easy to say that I will never loot, when you've not been exposed to too much money, that if you pilfer some nobody will know, this is why there is so much corruption in high places, reason why many people wants to go into politics, because they can embezzle public funds and hide every evidence that can implicate them.
Although there are still few incorruptible individuals that their integrity will not allow them to steal.

[AVE5]

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.

That's the reality fact. There's no one being addicted to money instead it's better slightly to greed of money.
We definitely have to keep chasing the money with every necessary reason to fit afford our needs which can be attained with the financial utilizations. We all do have bills and responsibilities which we needed money to balance them up.
Certainly the utilization of money is limited to some extends by which it's not needed. Moreover, we just have to keep chasing the money, accumulating them if possible without the thought of saying we've made more than enough because the economy situation of then has resulted to hardship of today and today's economy situation is a threat of the future. We we really have to work hard and hard to have this money in other to avoid certain restrictions and inability of not just reaching a goal but obtaining our essential needs.

Money matter not how you made it, which is hard to accept but it is the reality and that's why someone working 16 hours a day if finding difficult to pay their rent while someone who snatch someone's money is living the life in the way they want. I am not saying working is bad and we should all concentrate on money but we also need to accept the hard truth.

The best thing about money is that it's "never" enough, if you have 1000 dollars then that's not going ot be enough, if you have 100 billion dollars then it's still not going to be enough. Obviously to be able to live a decent life that's not the point, because if you have 100 billion dollars then you are not going to have a trouble when it comes to groceries, we all know that.

However, if you have that much then the return would be that you will want to start another business, or you will want to invest into something, basically you want to grow even more. That "addiction" is called greed, no matter how much money you have, then you are going to want some more and that's how it works. Only a few people are beyond that in life.

[tsaroz]

People need some amount of money in order to lead a quality life fulfilling the needs of food, shelter, education, health and well being. Any money more than that would either be useless or be used for non necessary expenses. It's not that people don't waste their money when they're poor, they do more so when the money comes easy.
The "looting" is both of ethical and legal matter. The illegal way of earning money is more prominent when the law are weak, there's no rule of law or the law enforcing and defining institutions are corrupt. It also is more prominent on the society that are ethically poor. The place which has high level of corruption generally have poor moral values. But with necessary strengthening of law and following it strictly and equally, people and societies can change.

[Gaza13]

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.

Agree with what you say, we do not avoid or cannot escape the need for money every day to meet our daily needs, to just survive and to buy things, we definitely use money without money it would be difficult to survive in an era like now This.

[Bitstar_coin]

I know am not addicted to making money otherwise I would be rich by now 
I love the idea of having enough money to sort out your pressing needs, but I don't have that much hunger to do whatever it takes to make money.
Besides I like to earn money in a healthy and legit way. People who don't care how they earn money are those who can be seen as addicted to making money by any means necessary.

That's it mate,people have various and different beliefs,perspectives,directives over money.Having a very composed and nurtured habits towards money and savings/spendings should not be considered as an addiction..Indeed money can be used to achieve goals and enable us pursue our dreams that's why they effortlessly engage and improve and increase their hardwork.
Money addiction can cause one to overwork which occur as a results of too much financial responsibilities and pressures and struggles.The feelings of having too much needs,financial insecurity can generate addiction.

That's right, money is an important thing in life, because of course we have to have money to survive, especially if we live in urban areas, where of course money is the most important thing, because if we don't have money in urban areas, of course we will have difficulties. various things, one of which is eating. We should all have to work hard to be able to have income or money because that is one way to survive. with those who are greedy for finances, of course they are people who do not have good thinking so they often take actions that carry big risks.

Of course, everyone has different perceptions, but what is clear is that everyone needs money to survive or to fulfill what they want. It's not strange that many people work hard until late at night just to support their families because of course, to survive we have to be able to have an income or have money. but it is true that there are people who are greedy for money or are addicted to money so that they can bring down their co-workers.

[Roggeredek]

When a person's income increases, the expenses of their personal life, in various areas, increase a lot because when people's income increases, on the opposite side the cost of living people's life increases a lot. Although most people adapt to everything at some point. But every person wants to earn more in the coming days than the present.

[AnonBitCoiner]

Everyone is struggling to make money so they can comfortably manage their expenses and will not accept any wrong way to accumulate money to fulfil their needs. Actually people are getting lower salaries as compared to their expenses so surely they will adopt another good way of earning so their life may be easy.

People become addicted to money because in this world all our works become easy with the help of money and if you don't have money then you will beg in front of others or will use another bad way of earning. But sometimes people have enough money but still they are addicted to earning more money because they are not satisfied with their financial gain.

The condition of every country is getting worse because some are earning more money while others are deprived of getting their job due to limited seats so they often decide to steal money and materials from others because life without money becomes hard for them.
