the Love of MONEY is the ROOT of all EVIL.

I think that you are definitely right on this one. I don't love money, but I know that our family has to have money in order to survive. I am not one of those people that is greedy with my money. When we have a little bit of extra money I am willing to share it with people that are less fortunate than we are. The reason that I am this way is twofold. First of all, I think that it is our duty as people to help others that are in need. Additionally, I also think that people will remember that we helped them if we ever face a time in our lives where we should happen to need help.

Yeah people tend to get this confused quite often. It is not money that makes people evil. I mean it is the nature of the beast. You need money to live a comfortable life. That is really just the nature of everything. The nature of money is that it is a tool that needs to allow us to live. Enough to live and perhaps some extra to save up for an emergency, that is the perfection combination. The problem is when people tend to get a little too hung up in their love for money. When they get obsessed with obtaining more money then they could ever need. Money has turned some well adjusted people into some pretty obsessed individuals. The fact of the matter is this. Money does in fact make the world go around but you got to know when to say when. So its not the money but rather the obsessive nature that causes us to go for too much.

Love is money is not root of evil. Money makes mare go. Money rectifies every problem. Every one is running after money and this is causing to keep the people of this world busy and busy. Poverty is not good. We can say that poverty is root of all evil. Theft, corruption, and foul means are born by poverty. Poverty seems like a crime and punishment. No one should live in poor and miserable condition. God gifts us 24 hours a day and these 24 hours are like golden coins. we should save them. we should utilize them to learn and earn. we conclude that no one is poor if he use 24 hours to earn the money in right means. This will make him rich and richness covers all of the evils and sins.

hello friend! i just like your blog.i really like that the love of money is the root of all evil.i agree with you.yes it is not say the money is evil but if you love money so much then you need money so much for this you have to do so many wrong work because if you are honest you can not earn so much money.yes we have to love our ALLAH not money.money is nothing. thanks a lot.

If you place money higher than God and your family in your life, then it can really become a root of all evil. It will tend to control you no matter what. As money can change and control everything in this world, you'll be susceptible to such things as luxury, overspending, pride because you think you are richer and more powerful etc.

The love of money may be the root of all evil, but it is also the key to earning a Ferrari. Money is not everything in this world, but it gives you a better position in the world. Like the famous saying, "They said that money can't buy happiness, but I would rather cry in a Ferrari.

You know what's the sad thing. Poor people often spend more time thinking about money than rich people do. If you have enough (and that does not necessarily mean being rich) you are liberated to express yourself in other ways, but when you don't have enough to pay the bills, to feed yourself, to do what you really want to do, money becomes like an all consuming virus in your mind. Saddest of all is that some people have plenty, but still think they are poor.... I think that is really where the 'love of money being the root of all evil' comes in. When money becomes like a hunger or an addiction.

Money? What is that? L.O.L. I really think the more money some people not all but does make them become different in some ways. I have been struggling for a long time but I have learned just to make it by week to week and day to day with what I have it is hard but I get by. Maybe money is the root of evil to some people? I can not really say, because I really don't know. Sure money is not everything and I have learned that for a very long time. You are right we should love God for what he or she gave us and be thankful for the money that we do have even if it is only a little hope this kind of answers your questions. Have a good day.

Love for money is not bad at all and I think nobody hates money. What is bad is excessive greed for money which is at the root of all evils.

I agree. YOu have a point there. Money is just a tool for commercial purposes. It's a legal tender that has the buying capacity. It's the greediness among us that is evil and not the money itself. When people have much money they tend to change their attitude. My Uncle once told me that money is power, without it you're nothing. I didn't agree with him but as i grew older and phase some challenges in the real world, somehow there's an inkling of truth in it. But power in the society is not the only power that i need. If i have God in my life, i don't need the power that money can give only in this world.

It's true that money isn't everything in life and people obsessed with money forget that they don't take it with them after the end of Earthly life,but unfortunately it's also true that if you don't have ,money to live a decent life no one will even look at you in this life,so money for me represents a necessary evil,but I don't want to get rich at any cost,I just need enough money to enjoy life.

I think love for money is not bad but when one have enough money for living then also thinking about making more and more money and greed for money leads to many evil things
