I think that many people follow money because its the one thing that everybody needs in life. Money is what makes the world go round. Without money people would stop working and the whole country would fall apart. Sure there are some people who love their job and would still do it even when they are not getting paid. But the majority goes to work every day for the monthly salary. Honestly, who enjoys sitting 8-10 hours a day in a small office and stare at a computer screen? You are right that value should be more important than money, unfortunately that is not the case.

money can indeed be a motivation in increasing hard work. but money is not a good goal. but money is only used as a bridge to reach what you want. like buying a car. and money is the bridge between those dreams to us. So the purpose of our life in this world is to get happiness. keep that in mind. Money is only used as a tool to achieve happiness. And remember it's not money that gives happiness. but God is the one who gives happiness. can be through warmth in the family, health and so on. and one of the ways or tools to get happiness is with money. but even though we have a lot of money. but we can't be grateful for what we have. then that person will find it difficult to find happiness. so gratitude is the best way to get happiness.

Depends on how you have a mindset in this case.
Money is one thing that can make life better or vice versa.
Lots of people are ruined because of money and in this case we have to be able to conclude that this is how we see money really.
When they are used in a way that can be said to be right, money can be one of the factors that are indeed a support for life but with a note that we are the ones who employ money but what is happening now is the opposite, we are employed by money so our focus is only money and money makes this does seem like it's true but something like this is definitely not an option because we will be devastated by something like this.

The problem is that not many people know how to get money to follow them instead of following where the money goes.
It's because that's the normal thing to do, you go where most money are going.

They are busy making money without knowing how to make it work.
It depends on the situation of the person, we can tell how to make it work for them but due to their situation, it can't happen. That's why keeping them educated and making them realize will open their minds on how to make it work correctly.

Money is a good follower, but is a poor leader.

Money will always lead you astray, but it will follow you well.

Any man that seeks to follow money becomes misled.
Money is meant to follow you, while you are meant to follow value.  Create value, solve problems, and do it well, you'll attract people to follow you; remember, money follows people with value.

What's your take on this?
The problem is that we can't even do without money. We spend it everyday and we are always forced to works for it no matter the circumstances that we are. Money gives us what we want and added value to us which is the major reasons why big men with big investors have easy opportunities to control us that are working for them. They have what it takes which is not a new thing and they can go extra miles to force us to do what we would never want to do.

Money is the reason why we would wake up in the morning, dress up, eat small food and off to the road. We do these almost 5 days a week just to get money to pay bills and take care of ourselves. I am still thinking because I can see that we are slowly becoming slave to money just to make ourselves uncomfortable just to get it t and fill up the gap of bills. The rich are so relaxed and want us to keep working to fill their portfolios.

What a beautiful world 😂

The problem is that not many people know how to get money to follow them instead of following where the money goes. They are busy making money without knowing how to make it work. But rich people know how and don't go into detail about it. This is where people are required to think creatively and be active in finding ways that can work for them because each person has their own way of making money. There are many problems that they have to face and it depends on how that person can solve them so they can start making money.
This is not entirely the fault of people, one thing that I have noticed long time ago is that despite the fact that people are going to spend most of their time working hard to obtain money so they can pay their way of living this is not something that you learn at school and it's something that you have to learn on your own, and as we know a great deal of people unless they are forced to are not going to take some time every day to learn how to manage their finances.

I know many people including a millionaire usually talk like this, but I disagree with their opinions since there's no such money will follow you or don't try to chase money etc. Because the value you've making are to get more money, they're just act like they're very spend a lot effort to contribute for the world etc without any money, but when someone offer money to them, they wouldn't decline it.

All people do anything to get money, most people didn't improve themselves and but they're prefer to destroy other people who better than them.
Weirdly enough that’s not me, I improve myself for money and that’s how I did so far. Like for example I was asked to write, I wrote and I made money and I became a better writer by doing it over and over again. Then I was asked to make a website, well I wasn't asked, but someone was offering good money for it, and I did, and then I get paid so I learned how to do it better, then I was asked for other stuff and I learned those stuff and did it.

Good thing is, youtube is filled with educational stuff and people decline to do it themselves, like 100$ worth of websites could be done via youtube videos in a day, and they just don't want to, and rather pay.

Money is a legal medium of exchange in this world that will never be bad to have

Quote
Money will always lead you astray, but it will follow you well.
Money will not mislead anyone because basically money is never guilty because money cannot move itself unless it is carried by the user throughout the world. So what is misleading is the user of money with bad intentions, not the money.

Quote
What's your take on this?
My opinion on this is very simple. First of all everyone who is still alive in this world all need money and that cannot be denied by anyone. Because every human being who wants to start a business in this world must always be based on money before he has the knowledge to run his business.

I think we still need to work hard and smart both in the current trend to earn money. There is no free money, there is no free way to earn money. If you need money to work for you (I am rephrasing OP statement, where they state money should follow us) then we need millions of dollars kept in the bank and we earning interest from the banks. I am pretty sure that the initial step still needs time, skills and energy to get millions of dollars. You see where we going with this? We circling around the fact that we need to work to earn money no matter what.

Although money is very important in our life, but that does not mean we should be slaves to money. Because the more we are greedy and obsessed
with money, our life will not be happy and only keep us away from the people we care about. Many events just to get money have to fight with family
or friends, and such things shouldn't have to happen if we can control ourselves and not obsess over money. Actually money will come by itself
if we have the skills that other people need, or the more diligent we are to develop ourselves the easier it is to make money. As you said money is
only a transaction tool, so don't be too obsessed with money. We must be very grateful for what we have, in our life it is not just money that we have
to look for, sometimes there are many important things that we cannot buy with money that we often forget.

This is typical middle class people's mindset which I strongly oppose.

From the statement money can't buy everything we agreeing the fact we don't have enough money to buy everything so we are simply consoling ourselves that we are rich by heart but that isn't reality.

In finance everything comes into asset and liability factor even your family and there is no emotions behind it then only we can achieve the status rich, obviously hardwork and all is needed but having the right mindset is important but it should not be towards the money it should be towards the status we want to reach.

Money is the god of this age.

A wise man once said:

"If you can't buy what you want, which could be anything, it only means you don't have enough money."

I think money is not a follower but it was the leader and we people are its followers. We do anything no matter how hard it was only to get a piece of them. That is how powerful they are but how can you say that money is poor/bad? Maybe because you believe on what the saying says that money is the root of all evil?

I think that was wrong. It's not the fault of money but it's about the person if how they will use their money. If only they will use the money on proper things like buying a food and paying their bills then that is a good example but it is wrong if the person spend all if not most of their money on drugs, alcoholic drinks and gambling.

Money is not a goal in itself but it is a means, we are in a world where everything needs to have money, food, water, electricity and the Internet. These are the simplest things necessary for the continuation of life. In today's world, all of them need money, even education needs money. Almost everything needs money, so you can't Living in the midst of urban life today unless you have money.
Of course we should not worship money and our goal in life is not just to get more money, but in the real world you have to get money to live.

[Nope]No hype delivers more than hope
Indeed, there are some people who are enslaved by money. It's just that it depends on a certain level and a supportive environment, their dedication also has a role.
I would not say that people with low economic levels depend on money. Their minds only get enough to get food, and I say this as motivation. "Slavery" can still be found in some places in the type of heavy work, where there is no balance between the level of work and salary. From this point, you will see clearly who is the real slave.

Money doesn't follow anyone, its there and who has skills, knowledge, energy or whatever things they have can be used to get the money and if we are talking about more money then it is going to fall into the hands of rich.

Money neither a follower nor a leader, its just a tool to complete the trade/transaction so don't get obsessed with that just find the ways then you will get more money.

there are some people who are enslaved by money. what is meant is a person who is always busy making money without caring about his family and himself. he has become rich. but he still felt not enough with the money he had. and he continues to earn money until he forgets the importance of being together with his family once in a while.

but for people who are middle to lower economic level. then it is natural that they are looking for money as hard as possible and work very hard. because they are not just looking for money. but they try to meet the necessities of life that must be met such as food and clothing and electricity bills etc. in the household.

who are enslaved by money are those who have excessive ambition. those who are already very rich. but they keep piling up money to the point of sacrificing their precious time with family.

That's why you make your money for you, let your money be your own slave and not be a slave of money because it can you do things oddly.

Nothing wrong to be rich with your hard and smart work but don't let money be eaten you and change who you are. Just like the literal rich folks, they're making their money as the one that generates more money to them.

Be like them if you want to or have your own journey in making your riches.

What's your take on this?
If you choose to chase after money all the days of your life, it can be very exhausting. Money is never enough so the chase may never end, no early retirements of any form, you will keep chasing till you wear out and most likely become poor if you don't seek a way to make money remain with you or come to you. Position yourself to make money come to you, so you can retire early and have a great life!
At the beginning unless you were fortunate enough to be born rich you have to work hard to reach some wealth, however the problem is that most people get stuck in this phase and never get out of it, the famous rat race as it is famously known, the way to financial wealth is to not get trapped on the rat race, but how this can be done? By saving your money, avoiding frivolous purchases and debts and finally by investing in good assets, this takes time but once you reach your financial freedom you will realize that it was totally worth to make the effort to reach it.
