no, money is evil, it can turn a good person bad.

Nope. Money is not a root of an evil. Having no money is the root of an evil. If you will work hard you can earn money. If you earn money you will not think to do bad things. When you don't have money and you starved, and you pity yourself, many thing comes on your mind. There the evil will enter on your mind to do bad things.

I can see that people nowadays are busy searching on money and everything depends on money. People nowadays never go to church just because they would rather earn money rather than praise God. Others do not pay respect to elders  because they earn money for them or richer than them. Well for you, is money above all things ?
Although money is a thing to must have in the society and even in the whole world and I use to work for bitcoin cryptocurrency to gain and earn a big count of money, I still do not consider money to be above all things. The only reason why I am working to gain money is because we need money to sustain and purchase daily life needs which can only happen if we have money. Despite of all that reasons to have money, I still do not consider money to be above all things because there are things that cannot be paid by money and those things are precious and priceless.

Money is just a tool to fulfill our needs in this era, however money can't satisfy us all our needs, There are areas which can't buy using fiat currency, such as inner aspects of our life,  might be spiritual and emotional fields. Money is the root of evil because we always work things to satisfy all our wants, if we dont have control to our self, there's no way you can find peace and total happiness,  Contentment are the key to live healthy and meaningful lifestyle.

For me money isn't above all things, but below all things. Because money is just an instrument and it is stupid to live for the sake of the instrument. You need to live for higher things.

No, not all things can buy by money like happiness or your family's love for you or your friends or family's trust.

No. Because we must not let the money to control us in order for us to avoid the happenings of having a negative feedback from the things you did if you put money above all things. God is the one who must be above all thing in order for Him to blessed each people that making him the number 1 and it will make him more rich and blessed.

We all know that money perform a big part in our life here in earth but of course you won't achieve a lot of miney if you doesn't put God first because He is the one who gave you that money and you need to give thanks to him. Making money above all things won't put you in a good situation but reverse. Yet when you put God first, you will destined to be succed.

Money has very important use in ones life or I should say the most important thing to sustain in today's world. You need money for everything from food to medical expenses without money you cant get food, shelter and cannot sustain life. But money is not above all things it is important commodity in life but killing for money, kidnapping for money cannot be tolerated. One should earn a money in proper ways and fulfill his and his family desire and remember to worship the Almighty which created everyone.

No. Even we need a money every time, it is still not the center of all things. For me there is more important than money and that is GOD.

of course not. let's we think. many people who are rich, they tend to be arrogant even impolite to the elderly. however, we cannot deny that money is important for us to survive. it doesn't mean that we make it as primary purpose of our life.
Some poor people are arrogant too, so the problem is not with the money par se, but the attitude of a person. If you have money and able to remain in control, that is how it should be, but when money is the one in charge, then everything is out of control because such a person would be no less a beast!

People do not depend on money, just without money you can not survive in the modern world. All in fact they want a family and have a comfortable home, and this requires a lot of work.

For me, its not all about the money.
God is the most important things in the world.
You don't have all the material things in this world if God doesn't helps you.
So don't forget God in everything he did for us.

In today's world, people simply have to work hard to secure a decent life. Nobody says that money is the most important, but without them it's just not possible to survive and create a family.
I agree with you! Most of the people needs to work hard for their family, in order for them to have a good life. Not because they're working hard that means that they already forgot to thank God for all the blessings they receive. It's just that they need to put more effort to earn more because what they actually earn is not enough.

Put God first! Then I would say Yes.

They say money can't buy happiness but it's better to cry inside a Limousine than to cry in a Bicycle. They also say that if you're slave to money then you'll die but that's part of our existence because we all die anyway. And so what's the point in all of these that we're here? The answer would be because basically, we are looking for money.
You're absolutely right, nothing compares to God!

Money is very good because it answers to many things - it can make life much better and enjoyable, it does save life. However, when we become a slave to it, that is when problem begins, because then one becomes susceptible to commit crimes like stealing or even killing to have their way. Actually poverty is the worst ailment that can afflict anyone - little wonder, some people can do just about anything to avoid it, but that's wrong, too much of anything have always proven to be bad!
That is the fault of the people or person who doesn't have any knowledge about money management and for me, money is above all things because that is how we live and without it, it is like the oxygen that it will be hard for us and after a few days of living without money, you will die because money is the most important thing in this world and your God can't do anything if you don't have money but to watch you.

God is still above all things but what's happening once a person gets attached with his money he will never thank God for the blessings he is receiving. It's not that bad for people to search for money as we need it to survive, I'm getting your point about the change of culture on this generation. Also this is just one sort of influence of the modern era about on how people are giving importance to money instead of those you had mentioned.

money can make anything, for the moment I prefer finding money for everything. but when I already have a lot of money, I can think of other things without having to constantly look for money in old age.
That is life dude. What is money in your life ? That is nothing but a chance of getting everything in your youth. We all are working for money and have no preference of happiness in our lives.
This weakness will arise when we would be on death bed waiting for death. No value for money, then.

I agree with you.  I read an article wherein they interview those people who are nearing their death.  They wish they did everything the want when they are young, others wished to travel, some wants to talk with their friends.  And that putting yourself on job without social thing is not funny.  But of course, we can balance both like travelling while earning money.
I always remind myself do not spend all my time to work. Although you are richest man, but if you have not happiness with your family, your friends, you are only alone, maybe forever if you never understand these things before you die.
This is true, this is why we should live our life to the fullest and enjoy as we can because we do only live once and working and searching for money for the rest our lives is very tiring.You would really end up on regretting if you do miss the beauty of life together with your loved ones.Money does really give a big impact since this would fulfill the needs on enjoying life but its not really necessary to aim for money money money.
