Topic: People are not motivated by money. - page 16. (Read 3271 times)

Yes, i do agree that some are motivated with money and some are not. I also think it is a case to case basis.

It is true that most people are not motivated by money but the fact is, money comes a long round to solve most pertaining issues of man.

If we relate this to crypto, then money is definitely a motivating factor.

Development of decentralized exchanges and other decentralized applications (Open Bazaar for example) has been extremely slow throughout the last couple of years, and this is purely the result of less incentive to work on something that doesn't compensate. In most cases it's working for the good cause, which is to decentralize the crypto ecosystem, but if it's not generating you any income, you won't be going full at it. It will remain a side project that you every now and then allocate some time to.

I'm pretty sure that if decentralized exchanges were rewarding, the development and usage would be at an all time high a couple of years ago already. We right now would poop on all these KYC/AML hungry exchanges, but instead, we're still tied to them.

Interesting that you remind Tesla. He truly wished to give to people electricity for free, but his plan and career was destroyed by capitalist Edison who were selling the electricity in the final.
You see the number of such people as Tesla is very short. It's true that people run for innovation and modernisation, but in the most of cases this run is just to make the life easier. And actually all this innovation usually costs a lot, just like release of new Apple smartphone, which gets more and more expansive.

they are not motivating by money because maybe they are not interested because they think that bitcoin was low businesses so they are not interested

If one can't make a living, there's no way for one to have innovation. Imagine if you are too poor that you cannot buy food, you have no motivation for all other things.

Depending on which side you look at, and indeed the desire to have something is one of the biggest motives in human life. At this time the majority of the desire can only be filled with money, different in the past, where technology is not as sophisticated and fast as this process

What you have said WAS true. Motivation to work doesnt involved money before, but its totally different today. When you say those people who has invented what we are using today example internet, smartphones, electricity, and etc. is all just for the pure passion of science, well thats correct, but when they found out that they can make a bunch of money out of it, then that makes it partially wrong. No wonder why government tends to butt-in when someone invented something useful in the future.
Now, lets apply this topic to ourselves on our daily living, and the REAL motives why we worked on something so hard. Lets say if you succeded in a field of your interests, its not just because it will boosts your morale and the pride of achieving something thats giving you motivation. But, behind that there is always money.

Everything has changed in todays era, what has been done before may not be necessarily applied today.
I guess its safe to say "  There are a lot of things that motivates a person, but money is always the secondary if not the primary purpose."

I agree, but it more better to say people are not ONLY motivated by money?
Money is a really effective motivator, but there are others (like satisfaction)

In fact, if we want to think more deeply, money is only paper written with a certain nominal value and given interesting pictures. That is important, but not the most important thing to live

People are very painful with money. they can say they are not, but when it's down now, it's alone and it's just a reference to an agreement that they must really win. Generally speaking, this can not be the right path through this, but if it is in front of it or it needs to act that you do not see it often.

This is true. People need money to survive a day to day life. It is not necessary that people will tell they do not meed money. More and more people are engaging into cryptocurrency because they see the potential of growing in cryptocurrency because they wanted to have more money. People are motivated by money.

Money is just a part of life What all we need is to live a satisfactory life and money isn't all to live a satisfactory life being poor with a good heart is better than being rich with bad intentions.It isn't necessary for us to do jobs which we don't want to do by killing our self respect and all it isn't necessary right what more we need is passion to do the job

Cave art is not innovation, it was a method to communicate and a way to tell stories.    Also, Tesla invented all these technologies to fund his other experiments.

People are definitely motivated by money, because it allows them to eat and pay for a roof over their heads. So without all of that, these innovations will not have been possible.  

Well, I think many people are motivated by business, but all the obstacles are money. so sometimes people are motivated by something to get money, because this age is an age where money is an important tool for building things.

Really true.Gone are those days where people are just thoughtful enough to make a free service.People nowadays work hard to earn a living.I think we cannot deny the fact already that we are mostly motivated with money considering if you don't have money,you will not survive in this world.

you can rarely find someone who will do something for someone for free though. times have changed and those noble men who do something for someone are only going to be found in the remote areas in this world where you can see some honesty stores. but its true that if you want something done quick fast put a big reward for it and everyone will come running.

Money is the number one needs of people,other people disgusting by the money,that's why they can easy to motivate the people by some good explanation but you need the big amount or capital of money

And how you pay for your school? How you pay to learn about science? Do you have equipment? How did you pay for it? There isn`t simple explanation, you need to think about it a lot. Even on your life example it`s clear that you have money or your parents, but tell me one thing, what would you do if you don`t have money for food? Don`t think about money for school, car, house, start from food? Do you see where I`m heading with this? What OP is wrote about and what you wrote is simple how person feels and what person thinks when he have enough money for all the needs, maybe not all but for most things you like you have a way to get to them, and then you can relax and think about other stuff. Money is the reason why someone goes into the sewage system everyday, money is the reason why most of the people get up in the morning and go to some shitty work, money, because only with money you can buy food in a big city, only with money you can travel and see the world, only with money you can pay for bills. When you don`t have money, you can be a fanatic, a monk, that lives in the forest without any needs, except for food and shelter. In real world you need money for everything, and of course that money is a motivation for all of us. Only when you have a lot of money you can relax like I said and start to think about other things.

basically everyone hopes to get a lot of money from the profits they are looking for. in order to achieve this, there need to be many right ways and strategies so that process can be effective
