Money root of evil and root of fear

[uche6215]

Money is actually not the root of evil, I agree with you on your view that a person's value in society is now a function of how much is in your bank account this is so because over time money has been worshipped and taken over the place of God, because the value that has been given to money by society is too much that is like if you don't have money is like you don't even exist

[Lanatsa]

For that reason I say that poverty is mental, it is not about what or what they want to be poor, poverty is something that besieges, in some cases it is due to a lack of opportunities, in a country where there are people who have studied have the potential to contribute and do not have the opportunities that is another thing, that they are poor only because of that, even so they point out what they can do, then poverty is something that besieges but it is coupled with the lack of motivation and inventiveness for work, because in most cases there is work, they just don't take it, for me the way out of poverty will always be work.

because in poverty, work becomes a determining factor for someone to progress or retreat, because this situation becomes a certain motivation, which is closely related to a person's survival depending on how the individual assesses it, and each person has their own thoughts about the solution to their own way out.

And this is where you could really be able to distinguish into those individuals who do have plans in compared into those people who dont really just that dont care about into their situation and really just that contented on what they do have or experiencing now. Its not bad on having that contentment specially on your lfie status or living but its not also that bad on taking up some considerations on trying out to enhance yourself
the way of living and the current status you do have. As long you are making things legally and ethically then i dont see any problems in regarding to this. It will really be just that normal that you would really be taking up such steps for you to at least on making your life status to be better. It will really be best that you should really be knowing at least on the things that you are involving with and the decisions made on.

Money is the root of evil? No its not. The real evil on here is into those people who do have that bad intents on doing something unethical or simply which is really that against or simply violations or crimes
and since they do have the money then they could really do everything that they do want. So it does simply implies that it is really just that a tool that being used by a certain individual.

As we put it this way, we really need money to survive in thislife. We may not aim for riches but hard to get by your everyday survival without money.

It is not wrong about what you said about the point of poverty and also the point of becoming rich, because in my own area the poor people are people who do not have a job that is so decent so they do not have a stable income in their own lives. In addition, those who are still poor also have shortcomings in creating new things to attract everyone even though they have the opportunity to do so. However, because they also have limitations in terms of the knowledge they have, their time and opportunities also become useless so they have to continue to work hard with their own physical abilities without caring about other things they can achieve.

If money is what is being use for people to value in the society that means we have missed what value is supposed to be in the society, that means people will do anything for money just to get value in the society. Money shouldn't be what brings value to people,  the real thing that is suppose to give people value is the characters they exhibit, if it is what the society needs and if it is affecting the society positively.

One can have money in illegal ways, do we say such person is a person of good value.  Some people can be wealthy but still be stupid and their lifestyle is affecting the society negatively. Value shouldn't be base on money but what impact is one adding to the society both in characters and to the development in the society.

Yes, but you have to look at it from a very good point of view , because even if we are Millionaires we should feel Useful and the best way is to work , you should work hard for everything , I have read books where they say that if you work and you like what you do you are happy, but if you work only for money you are not happy and how much reason there is there, I remember reading an article a long time ago where the Swiss proposed to them not to work Anymore because they simply did not need it , and they flatly refused, I think that in life we ​​should give the position to the job that it is , so that what is done is valued, what I do not Agree with is that People are exploited and paid Little , which is the most Common thing.

When money becomes the ultimate thing, it distorts one's sense of reasoning. No doubt it presumably good to have money but another vital thing is knowing how bear to spend the money. MONEY on its own has a different spirit that comes with it, some people are naturally greedy, full of all kinds of deceits and can died all because of money.

[boyptc]

Being greed is, money is a tool and the misuse of it leads to destruction and other evil things as you've mentioned OP.

This is not different from people that keeps on justifying that money can't buy happiness. We're already on the 21st century and there's still some debates about it.

One can have money in illegal ways, do we say such person is a person of good value.  Some people can be wealthy but still be stupid and their lifestyle is affecting the society negatively. Value shouldn't be base on money but what impact is one adding to the society both in characters and to the development in the society.

I like the latter part that you've said. It's about the value of people that doesn't comes from money. But it's hard to get into this principle nowadays where everyone is only looking after the money.

Well, it's all about the love of money that makes people greedy and the social values that they have changes because they think that everyone, everything can be bought with money.

Yes, you are right and it is a fact that things are that way , sometimes the capabilities of people can make them even poorer , a person who has a lot of wealth can use it to get better Opportunities , what happens is that in most countries to be able to study you have to have a lot of money, there are countries that Allow free education, therefore that is what you have to see and Understand , in a country that offers you free education there are no excuses for Poor People , because if you are poor it is because you are lazy and you do not like to Work , but if you have Opportunities to get ahead by working it is something that should be done.

I dont think money is the root of all evil. It's more about how people choose to use it. Sure, some people do bad stuff for money like crimes, stealing, killing others, but that's on them, not the money itself. It is the person that is doing those stuffs who is evil. There are tons of people who use their wealth to help others and make the world a better place. Money can be used  for good if you let it. Blaming money is kinda missing the point - it's really all about personal choices and morals. Plus, without money, how would we trade or get things done?

-snip-

Right now the person value in society is based on how wealthy they are and what they own and how much that costs what they own.

Instead of that the fair system will be judging person value by the merits of the person doing in society not just how wealthy they are or how good they are to take from others with super greed but instead of this how much they give to others in terms of their skills talents and knowledge.

I guess then you are living in the wrong society. You should start looking for new friends that wont judge you by your wealth.
