I agree with this, money is an inanimate object that cannot do anything if no one uses it. I will give an example similar to this, for example we have a knife. It can be very dangerous if we use it for crime, but it will be very useful if we use it for something very useful and I think all inanimate objects like this will always have the same nature. Money is one of the things that is very sensitive, money can not only break the bonds of brotherhood or friendship, but it can also eliminate someone's right to live. I personally am very careful when it comes to money, because this is very sensitive. Even though at first someone is a good person, but with money it can turn into a bad person, maybe even more evil than we imagine.
Therefore, I am saying that the nature of money will depend on the person who has it and this is not a situation that is a mistake because all forms of actions related to sensitive matters such as money can bring out the savage side that we have or the opposite side where it will bring out the angelic side that we have in ourselves.
So it is important for us to maintain our condition both in terms of mentality and in terms of lust so that we do not become someone bad just because of money because indirectly when this happens then we can say that it is we who have fallen into and are used by money and this is certainly contrary to the initial concept that we ourselves should be the master and money should follow what we want.
It is difficult to achieve this especially with the many cases that stem from money and have even begun to lead to criminal matters but in the end it is we ourselves who decide whether we will only be an object played by money or we are the subject where money is what we will use as a tool.
Yes, as humans, the good and bad sides are things that exist within us, depending on how we can control them so that the bad side within us does not come out and endanger and harm ourselves or others. Only we can control that, because it comes from within ourselves. Something that is not impossible if one day we can show our savage side, even though at first we can control it, it will appear because there is a trigger, one of which is money. I even saw in several cases that I saw on the news, there were family members who killed their own family members just because of money. Another case is that their children will be very cruel to sue their parents in court just because of money or property. This is very scary.
Is money the root of all evil or men wielding the money that is evil? Just like it has been stated above, it is what we do with money that determines if money is going to be evil or a source of fear. Because if you have money and you use it to open charity organizations, hospitals, help the poor, and build society, money becomes a resource, a vital tool for sustainability and growth. But when we have money and decide to use it to oppress the poor, buy influence in offices to get more and oppress the poor, then it is no longer the money that is the root of evil, but the person wielding the money. Money has a controlling spirit. So, by the time you let money control you, that's the big problem.
And I guess these people who use money for evil are just waiting for an opportunity to reveal their true selves. Because a good person will remain good even when money touches their hands; instead of using it to harm or oppress, they use it to build charity organizations and support their society. So, money is evil or good in the hands of whoever wields it. My point is, money can be the root of evil for a person or the source of good and positive things, depending on how they use it.
Money is really just that a tool on which human beings are really that using it up on various means on which it could neither be positive or negative. This is why its not really that right that you should really be
knowing at least on the actions that you are taking into. Money is always been blamed whenever a certain individual do bad decisions or actions and since they do have that financial capacity then they could do almost everything and thats the advantage of having money. The bad thing on here or its cons is that whenever a certain person does have that bad intents then this is where they would be able to do all sorts of things
and since they do have the money then they could do anything they want neither good or bad. Every actions will really be that basing up on someones mind and decisions to be made.
It is really just that too wrong that we would be drawing up or making some conclusions directly that money is the root of all of this instead on trying to look into other aspects or reasons on which
it could be the main reason on why a certain person do commit out such acts or decisions.
