Money does not corrupt anyone. It is the LOVE of money that corrupts people. Money in itself is neither good nor bad. It is the person that handles the money that determines whether money is good or bad. The world was created without money so therefore even if there is no money in the world, the earth and everything that is in it will still remain. Of course life will be much tougher but not totally non existent

Money is barometer for everything today. yes life is pretty hard without money. Every desire one has to kill because of lack of it. Life for those who have no money or have very less money is very hard and they are shunned of everything. They dont have friends, they are branded failures and everything like this and people tend to avoid them like a plague. They dont get decent food nor medical care nor are sure of roof on their head and their children dont go to nice schools. So it is very important to earn decent amount of money. If you dont then life is very very very hard.

I do believe the quest for money can corrupt, BUT without money, bad people would still steal something, kill another to get something and people with problems would still fight and argue over something. Money really isn't real when you think about it. It is just a placeholder for needs and desires: needs and desires that would still be there if money was instantly removed. Now if you are asking if there is way to remove those needs and desires, I doubt humanity will ever solve that one.

Money doesn't make the world go round. We can always survive even without them. Don't get deceived by what money can give us: a number of houses, luxurious cars, jewelry, grand vacation in Europe or anywhere you wanna go, etc. There are still things that money cannot buy: love, family, friends, happiness, contentment.

Life isn't all about money, Mtherapy. I know you know that.
I guess that the greed for money is one of the worst things you can ever have.
I'm not denying the fact that we actually NEED money in order to live.
We just have to be able to let money fill some of our needs, not desires.
