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?

Money is definitely a motivator if you want to live comfortably. As our world depends totally on money for achieving a comfortable life or at least meeting your obligations, earning should be one of your main goals if you truly want to experience a hassle-free life. But there lies a difference between rich and being satisfied. A person may be rich but he may feel empty on the inside especially if they have no friends, etc.

The way to deal with this is to balance a healthy lifestyle with your peers and earning money. While the latter should be one of your main focuses, you should not totally discredit other means as this will keep you active in other aspects of your life.

I don’t think our world depends totally on money for achieving a comfortable lifestyle like you say. What you would define to be a comfortable life would differ from the next person.
If you want to truly want to experience a hassle free life, search for inner peace within yourself and then get the money as money is obviously important. Only then would you lead a hassle free life. There are people who are happy and satisfied with the little they’ve got and do not need money to “live comfortably” as they’re comfortable with their way of life.

I think what he said was quite harsh, but I will agree that it is true. Nowadays, our world is entirely dependent on money, without money you will never be able to live comfortably in a world where money is used as a measure everywhere.

It is often said that money cannot buy peace or happiness, but I think that is no longer true today. I firmly believe that you will not be able to get a wife without money, nor will your marriage be happy without money. And without money, you cannot find a peaceful place in this world.

What's your take on this?

I agree with you that in order to receive money, you need to create and sell goods (works, services).

Also, to redirect financial flows in your direction, constantly communicate with other people. Only communication with other people will help you create a profitable business.

It is very important to focus on your own mission.

It is necessary to constantly improve your knowledge and skills, as well as acquire new knowledge.

Yes, without a communication, I don't think a business will be created other than that to do good communication, not everyone can do it,
it takes skill to do it so don't take it for granted,
Never get bored to learn new knowledge and skills.

Money should never be the purpose. Money is always a means to get purpose. The most important purpose of every person is to become the likeness of God. Everything else is side.

that's all you need to know about our world. everything else is just pasta on the ears

I don't understand what you are saying, because I don't think about any creature that would be like God. And it's good if you don't bring God's name in terms of money or in an unnatural world because this is about everyone who wants to achieve their own goals and there are also those who make money the ultimate goal of their own efforts.

So you should be smarter in sorting this out with the god that you believe in or are currently believing in, because I also know that the one who gives fortune is God, but don't expect any creature that will be similar to God in this world. Unless you have another understanding that I can't understand with my common sense.

When it comes to money then people would be most likely be forgetting these divine things on which they arent really be having that involvement when it comes to God or whatsoever that they would be needing to ask for which it is really that a very common human being behavior on which we are really that been driven that desperation on finding ways for us to make money which is something that really not surprising if you do ask me.
Cant really blame out others though because we do know that having money turns out to be a necessity because if we dont then we wont really be able to survive this harsh reality where
everything in price or value is rising.How you would be able to survive if you dont have money?

We all know money has many values in life but in reality money is not everything. Suppose you have huge amount of money but you are physically sick or you are mentally disturbed even with huge amount of money then how can you say that money is everything in life. We are all always chasing money. We always go forward thinking how to earn money and how to increase my wealth. But when you realize that despite having huge amount of money you are still in mental turmoil then you will realize that money should not be chased all the time. So I think in life you should run for a beautiful life instead of running after money all the time.

where I live there is a saying "Don't be lazy in bed unless you can make money in bed". I think money is definitely a motivating factor for many people.
money is not everything but money makes everything easier. because of money I have to fight, it's sad that I can't help my parents or siblings because of money problems.

the biggest target in my life is to have a lot of money so I can be a generous person, hopefully my life can be useful for others.

Money is not everything? Well, I'll tell you this, money can give you power. It tends to put you in the position where everyone value you more than those who have lesser ones.
Even within your family circle, those who have more money tends to be the most respectable person.
That's the reality of money, it doesn't only buy you happiness, but will give you the power. It grows your pride as well, being generous would give you that, as people respects you and look up to you.

Money is truly a motivating factor and even without been told, we should know that money answereth all things.
I strongly agree with you on the things you've said about money because I've seen situations where money allowed money get into their heads and making them misuse the money and this situation is mostly associated with free money(money gotten without effort).
One thing is to have money and the other thing is to let the money get into your head and one of the reasons why people allow money get into their head is the is to meet up unnecessary competition.

Money is good but when not used wisely, it becomes a wrong tool.

Money can never buy happiness. but without money, one cannot have happiness. everything in this world needs money, without money there is not much we can do. according to the theme of the title above and as you said, that money is a driving factor and without even being told that money can answer everything we need. in essence, money is used for things that are vital for humans today, as a means of transaction.

However, money is always the scapegoat which is always blamed by its users. often also used as a tool to facilitate actions that lead to crime, corruption, and all kinds of it. money was created as a medium of exchange rate, and its function was very useful until the time came for fiat money to be replaced by electronic money. however, money is always the root of the problem rather than its true function.

You truly hit the mark! Even though you can't buy happiness, money can still make you happy, right? Money is, in reality, the driving force behind everything, especially in today's world, but it also serves as the source of evil and selfishness.

And in my place there is also a saying "Don't complain before you try" on something that already looks good. If you think that money is a very easy thing to solve all problems, then try to make as much money as possible from now on through various jobs that you can take. Because you can still do work such as farming in the garden or trading in traditional markets with minimal capital to earn money.

Almost everyone also wants himself to be very useful for others and to be a benefactor in his life. But not many people want to make it happen because some of them are so preoccupied with complaining that every day there is always an excuse not to start something better job so they can earn more money. So I hope you're not in the group of people who like to complain or anything like that.

Money is a label not the quality itself, by that I mean the price to anything can be inaccurate and not actually correct. So saying money is the motivator I will say is incorrect, its one of many factors. A large thing thats changed in recent years is people are rejecting the sometimes hours per day commute as part of their job, its a waste of time and effort. Ultimately time is money far more then many other things can be said to reliably be, so wasting time every day when its not required to do a job has been reconsidered by many workers and avoided where possible. Obviously not everyone can change these details but certainly I see time, money, work and motivation has shifted some in recent years.

Not everything requires money. There are some things that no need money. For example, people in the village can get food from the forests, they don't need money to do it. But I can agree that money has a crucial role in human life, without money we will get difficulties in many things. Especially if we live in a city, money is almost the key to get any things.

Well, people always need money for any transaction. We buy everything with money, it is very clear in our daily life.

Money is no doubt important for our day to day activities and expenses. But not everyone sways to the tunes of money. There are people that are content with the little they’ve got. They live a modest life and has very little needs.
Admittedly, people that live in the city spend more money than people that live in the rural and countryside where things are more reserved. But, generally I do not agree with the OP that money is the motivating factor as there are some people that aren’t motivated or swayed by money

We are all here on this market and on this forum trying out to find ways for us to make more money or having that income aside from our day jobs.In our world which is really been having that inevitably
recession and on going or unstopping inflation then it would really be just worth that you would really be finding ways for you to make more income.
We are really that thriving on daily living and survival which it would really be just that normal that we would be aiming to make or getting some money but its not something
that easy where someone could able to deal with it easily.

There are things which cant be bought by Money which is;

-Trust
-Love
-Time
and other things which are correlated to this but we do know that it is already that part of necessity on which for someone to live a life.
Having tons of money could really give out that happiness since you could buy all the things you do like and could travel with your loved ones and cherish
out precious moment together compared into those situations that you dont have money trying out to experience this and this is why
i do partly agree but most of the time i do disagree with these kind of sayings.

Interesting points for the question: "does money buy happiness?"

Although you are right, I observe some things in life:

- People don't trust who doesn't have money, because they are seen as lazy, irresponsible, waster, freeloader.

- Women reject men who don't have a decent income, career, properties, or will stay glad by the side of the man while he can offer her a confortable life. When there is a confortable life, trips, restaurants, daily shoppings there will be "love" and a smooth relationship, but once you remove the money factor a lot of disagreements will appear frequently.

- The person who has lived a long life and hasn't made considerable fortune is considered a failure and often feels like this.

In theory there is more values and loyalty than on practice, unfortunatelly. Money should be a tool, but ends becoming the main purpose of most people's lives.

There were lots of factors or things which can motivate a person. A family or a loved one can motivate us. A physical thing i.e gadgets can motivate us too although money is still related with it because we need money to be able to purchase them. On the first one that I said, I think money can also be involved. We need money to travel if we are working from a far and we want to see our parents in our hometown. Money can also be used for our family to have a vacation, to buy them dress, phone and other items.

I think I know the unnecessary competition that you mentioned there but this wasn't totally bad IMO. In fact we can use it as well to motivate ourselves more.
