obviously they scientists sometimes don't think about how much money they spend on their experiments and sometimes don't even think about income before their research is successful what they think is how their research can succeed and succeed.

I always hear the argument for capitalism "B bb BUT people won't innovate without the profit motive" WRONG

Humans want to solve problems, create, and innovate, they do not need money to motivate them.  Cavemen were painting art 20,000 years ago without the desire of money.

True scientists like Tesla, he didn't care about money it was about the pursuit of science.

Capitalism does not cause innovation, most new technology is found by government programs like nasa (internet, smartphones, etc)

Absolutely! Not all the people are motivated by money. It is not their reason to do something they need to do or must do. Passion and the future what motivated a person. They tend to do the things they like or obligue because they want it not just for the money but for the passion and satisfaction they will have and get. Nevertheless, some people makes money as their motovation like they are working not because they want to bit because of the wages they will get.

Everything you said is true and I wont argue with that more.

But I will surely make one point here that, money does motivate people to work hard. Now the examples you have given are far greater and are not relayed with the general people. If we go with the general people thoughts then note that they work 12-18 hours a day just because they will be getting their salary at the end of every month. If they even take the leave, go away with their work or under perform then surely things can worsen for themselves and they may get less salary. Just with that thought also most of them go on the work even when they are sick!! Just because they dont want to have less money in their ever salary.
That is it, however, even though it does not motivate people to work hard, that does not stop it from being additional benefit which we all know in the world we are living now; a lot of people have been fixated on the idea of just making money even if they do not like what they are doing.

Usually, for quite very few, I would say they could get motivated based on the passion they have for what they are doing, and even without the money, the fact that they are fulfilling their desires, is enough motivation for them. For people that create solutions to problems, bring up innovation, and do it well, sure thing, money will always be a side benefit.

You are right, money does not drive TO EVERYBODY to do things.Money allows us to access different goods and services to which we ourselves put the price. But, there are people who want a better quality of life, and those people do see money as something that motivates them to improve every day.

There are many people in the world, I could not generalize about what motivates each person.

Most intelligent people realize the pursuit of money is empty, they want to leave a real mark on the world and change the future for the better.

I actually believe we would be more advanced if we didn't have a ruthless capitalistic society.  Think of how many geniuses had their talents wasted because of extreme poverty which leads to constant stress.

I agree. Not everyone thinks that money is the end-all, be-all of their entire being. That said, money motivates people to work hard. Take joining the crypto world as an example. There are those who join the crypto world because they want to earn money fast, but there are also those who start using crypto for other reasons.

Purpose is everything and so is money these days, in fact money is purpose enough to motivate
us to work, strive, succeed and survive in today's economy and society. It's true there are powerful
and insanely admirable rich individuals that have focused their time and effort on making a change,
leaving lasting legacies on their names. But I think a lot of people are still motivated by money and
power. Influence and wealth is still of great prominence and importance in our life and reality.

You have mentioned a deep thought.
I think that peoples are not motivated by money but the thing they are been motivated with needs a lot of capitalisation which is only fullfilled with the help of money.
Money plays an important role in each terms and most of the peoples work harder and harder to earn some money and only the minimum of them work to really fullfill their dreams.

Yet you might agree that innovations would be impossible without capitalism, as it is the money that fulfill one's basic needs and let him realize his potential.
Another point is that all inventions require substantial investment in the required equipment, technical assistance, etc. - and here money is also of great importance.

There is a category of people who do not want to earn, but work in order to have money for life, and there are people who are ready for anything, only to earn more.

This is mere theory. Weak theory for that matter.
Who are these Cavemen by the way? We were told are people who were  incapable of farming, building homes, mining etc Lifestyle can be influenced by diet and environment. They probably have the idea of building beautiful homes but lack the resources and the willpower.

I agree with this abit.
 Some say that modern science and technology  deep rooted in occultism. You just have to research to understand how. This probably explains why the big inventions come mostly from government and corporations funded projects/people?
The current technological trends seem to be predetermined. The progress is not very evolutionary.  These cool technologies could not be invented thousands of years ago and all of a sudden we began inventing them. I read that the goal is to transform our World into a virtual world (from Iron age to non-material/spirit world) and make us like gods



Free market/Capitalism does encourage innovation but it shouldn't be as fast and advanced as the current technological progress. *Something may be interfering.*  Just my opinion.

People of the current time are motivating through money. All things improve, day by day, price is increasing, updating. To run around, to live a luxarious and comfortable life, everyone is running behind the money. And there are people who are not motive by money less comparatively.

indeed People are not motivated by money, because the price of all coins is decreasing, so people are not motivated to make money, if the price starts to rise pasti people will be motivated to find a lot of profit

People are not motivated solely by money, but many certainly are to varying degrees.  I am definitely.

1. The problem with socialism and other centralized systems is that innovators are at mercy of government officials, while under capitalism they have as money chances to convince investors as they want, or even find other ways of funding like crowdfunding or self-funding or loans.

2. The motivation argument is actually applied to workers. If you start giving away free stuff, a significant amount of population will just relax engage in leisure activities. This is why it was illegal in Soviet Union and other socialist countries to be unemployed.

but, of course we know until now, that however funds or money are still needed to develop problems and also innovation. otherwise there will never be anything we call ICO, Fundraise or whatever you call it.
