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 ?

Yes, that is the reality of our lives, learning and working, the ultimate goal is to make money. Money plays a very important role in our lives. It can buy everything.

No.
Though money is necessary in our daily life, it is not really the most important thing in life.
What is money when you're not happy?
When you have so much money, you would be always in fear of loosing it.
The most important thing in life is genuine happiness where you can only find it when you help other people in your family, local community, and people in other countries who need the help.
You extend the love to others without expecting in return.
With love can find true happiness than all money you can get.
Love is above all things.
Even the simplest act of kindness to the less fortunate is love.
Love that is patterned by God's love towards all humanity, the rich, the poor, everybody.

- Yes, and want to help others you need money, you can not help anyone if you have no money, all problems can be solved with money or a lot of money. Your love only helps others in the spiritual aspect, it can not help a poor person become rich, nor can it end hunger, money is still the most necessary thing to help a poor person to become rich or ending hunger. I always believe if we have money, we will be happy, no money we will not have anything

I'd say YES. I am in a comfortable financial situation now, but my condition was quite bad 4-5 years ago. Looking back, I have a feeling that I could have done quite a lot of things to my family and relatives, if I had money with me then. Money is perhaps the most important thing in human life. Without money, you can't achieve anything in life.

Money is the main reason why most all people here are after for it. But let us not allow money to control us in everything we do.
Because if that happen money maybe able to controls ans lead us to become greed anyway.

Money should be controlled not money would be controlling us and you are right we would really become greedy if we do always think about money. We do accept the fact that we cant survive if we don't have money since we cant sustain our needs in able to live. I would go for the decision between yes and no we do need money but it is not above all things.

Money is not that important if you cannot live a long life. for me spiritually rich is more important than searching for luxury in the world that everyone wish for. Of course we need money to live and survive but what is enough is more than enough for me.

True, and besides money is just a paper or a tool to ensure your material need here on earth and your family, but people should consider the creator were always above of all things and not money , it will never make the best among the people who were living in your place, it may dictates social status but should not lean on it like it serves as your God.

Money is important because nowdays almost everything requires money. If you don't have money, you can't fullfil you basic needs, but it doesn't mean you should discard other things such as friends and family. At the end, you have to have someone whom you can spend the money with, for the sake of hapiness.

Money is always given priority and the human values were getting forgotten. This is because of the power of money, where people with money are getting more respect and the poor are neglected everywhere. This will change when more people are into the digital currency world.

Somehow yes, money is very important these days, you cannot live without money. Not unless you have your own house, farm and other stuff. But there are things that money cannot buy, these are happiness, true friends and family. I hope lets just all balance the greed in money, lets always remember that money is not above all, we do not need a lot of money we need love and respect to others.

That is not correct because when you have money, all your friends and your family will not leave you and it will create happiness to you and that is why money is very important these days because if you don't have money then everyone will leave you because there is nothing interested in your life aside from a loser and no money guy.

That is pathethic. Yes we all need money for living. We need money for our basic needs like shelter, clothes, foods etc but it doesn't mean that money is everything and money is above all things. If your family, friends, and your love ones truely loves you they will not leave you no matter how poor you are. We should not based on how much money a person has, we should based on his kind heart instead.

Money is not above all things but I don't want to be a hypocrite because money is always needed everywhere.
Nevertheless, never stop chasing money because in the end - happiness for yourself is all that matters.

Money corrupts. For me, a lot of things are way worth more than money. Family, health, friends, these weigh more than money. I agree that it also is very important in our lives since we need to spend every day but many ricb people would tell you that happiness isn't found with wealth alone

Money isn't the most important thing in the world, but it is important.
One should not do anything to make money.
For example, prostitution, pornography, killing, stealing, etc. are all just for money.

If I go to church instead of making money, then I with my family will just die of hunger and we will not be able to afford anything. I think this is a normal need for each person to provide for his family.

Sorry to disagree with you mate, For it's written in the bible, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and all these things shall be added into to you." If we put God first, God will provide our needs and wants. He is the most powerful that your biggest problem is just so small compared to Him. Of course, we have different religions and beliefs but I hope I could somehow inspire even one person that can read my post that it's not all about making money that we are here on Earth, our very first purpose is to please God, our creator, thus we must return to Him.

I strongly agree with you that we are not here just for making money. The main purpose of our existence is definitely to serve our Creator in order to qualify for heaven. However we all are somehow astray from the right path. Unfortunately, we are brought up in such an environment where materialistic things are preferred over humanity. In short, we badly need to return to our Lord.

Well thats true, bitcoin was made for just money, it doesnt mean money should above all. Money is important in way of living, people should praise God, and put him in your priority.

Worldwide there are many traditions which are valuing God is more than money and anything else in their life. But I believe we do not need to go for religious things here, because as per the economy and what are the practice as we are having, money must be more important thing to decide everything. That is the reason many people started valuing it similar to God.

Bitcoin was designed to be used as money for online transactions. So, we can say bitcoin will become as everything for every common man in this world.

If that’s an attitude, please change it. Yes, money matters, but you give God your time first. I don’t know what or who you worship, but give them respect. Why should you even bring religious matter into this? Well, to answer the op’s question, I’m saying yes, I choose money, but not over all things. You can’t live with only money. You need a lot of things in life, and that includes God (religiously), Love, Happiness, peace of mind. Common, money with no love and peace of mind is just a trash paper. We need a lot of things, not only money.

I can't blame them. Like as parents, they need to ensure that their children have food on their plate. As a regular employee, you want to buy things that you want. It might sound negative for others but God will always be there but unlike money you need to work for it to have it.

It's true that money is a necessity in our everyday life. But for me and my family, we always put God first even if it means we have to set aside our jobs. We grew up in a religious family and our parents raised us this way and they made sure that we know the value of our spiritual life. We go to church twice a week even if we're sick. For me, money comes after God and family.

For they who are born into a religious family and deeply respect their religion, they will put God first in their lives. I also have a religious family and because existence of god we can control ourselves not to steal etc. just to earn money, indeed money is everything and is needed in our lives but we must know the limits to get the money well.

I strongly disagree in this statement. Money is so important yes. It can buy your desires/luxuries and your daily needs. According to the Bible, money is the root of all evil. If you want money that bad, it will have a bad effect on you. If you have so much money, your desires will be limitless. Your happiness has a limit. Money cannot save you from death. If it is your time, then it is. Do not get blind by the nature of money. Have a look at what's happening on your surroundings. Don't forget the people besides you.
