I don't know about others but I earn money just basically to support my family not for my luxury
No.
The root of all evil is very well explained in the boom of Genesis.
Money is just result but not cause of our problems today.

Having money or wanting to make money is a good it, but when you make money the only thing you want to do neglecting every other thing, then it translates to greed then it becomes evil
Yes I do. Even without the Bible verse we can easily figure out why there are many people fighting for money, because of money the family members are fighting, politics are killing each other, yes they do such evil things because of position but behind that why they love to have power is because of money, and many more. There are many reasons why people are fighting each other and some lives are ruin because of that behavior whether you are part of the doers or the victims.

Money was designed by GOD himself and those who love it more than HIM, their family and good relationships defiled it's very purpose. Because the purpose of MONEY is to provide for our needs, to strengthen relationship and to enjoy our living.

Yes money is the root of evil, because sometimes just to have money other people will do something bad just to have money. And sometimes family start a war because of money, husband and wife start a fight because of money. So i agree it is the root of evil.
A lot of things here on earth are good, some of it people use for their own convenience. One of these is money. Having money is good if we are not the servant of it. But if the money will be the master by loving it will lead you to do evil.
Loving money is the root of evil but not all. When we value money over everything, we tend to do something just to have it. But loving money is the only catalyst of evil but also the money alone. Having money nowadays is a must for everyone since it is the only way to sustain our needs and wants. But if it will be attained through negative way, evil will come along. We cannot blame those people who will do bad things in order to have money because we don't see their life in their view. They do it maybe for their family to sustain their needs. But still it is done in a negative way so it still promotes evil. Thus, we can see that money should not be valued over something and should be get and used in the good way.
Money is not the root of all evil, the root of all evil is the inherent evil in humans. It's the greed that humans possess that turns into evil.
I think money is not the root of all evil, maybe most of the time but not at all times. Money will make a person bad if he or she made it as the most important in his life. A person may also bow down to money if her or she is in great need of money and no way to have it, which wil be the root of crimes.

Yes because money can change a person from good to being evil. They say you will know the real character of a person through money. Money is being use by satan to deceive more and more people. He wants all the people to love the money so they may forget to call unto God. Many people fall on to this trap of satan. Use money wisely and in a good way.

Of course, too much love for money can be cause of evil. A person can do anything just to get money. He can lie, rob and killed. He can sacrifice his friends and love ones just for money. We should be the one who control not the other way around.
The greed (love of money) is a very important factor but not the only one. Consider envy, for example
I think it does when we love something sometimes we get greedy,
And for me being greedy could make you do something bad specially if you really need it.

Before we use barter exchange for transactions, and people invented the logic of currency in form of coins (gold, silver, etcetera) to make transactions easier.
Money serves a purpose in the society, and because of its functionality many people have developed strong obsession in it. Money is never the root of evil but the person itself.
Intentions, motives and other personal agendas might be the "root of evil" not the tangible things.
Human's nature is a root of evil but not money. Money have no consciousness. It is an item or verifiable record that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services and repayment of debts. It was created by people. But if you value money above everything else then probability of bad deeds increases greatly.
It's never a thing like money or anything else you can imagine which is the root of evil.
It's always the human.
Money and other stuff might be a catalyst, but it's never the root cause. It's the different nature of people which make things good or bad.

let’s consider the question before us: Do you believe that the love of money is the root of all evil? The misquoted version (“money is the root of all evil”) makes money and wealth the source (or root) of all evil in the world. This is clearly false. The Bible makes it quite clear that sin is the root of all evil in the world (Matthew 15:19; Romans 5:12; James 1:15). However, when we reflect upon the correct citation of this verse, we see that it is the love of money, not money itself, that is a source of all different kinds of trouble and evil. Wealth is morally neutral; there is nothing wrong with money, in and of itself, or the possession of money. However, when money begins to control us, that’s when trouble starts. 
God has said that the love of money is the root of all evil so i believe it is. This is because i believe in God and His works. Remember, its only God that can say yes and no one can say no.
I think yes. This money is so addicting that even priests nowadays preach God for the money that he made himself
