Money is the root of all evils, that is what many people say, but hey, i dont agree with that, because there are a lot of good things you can do with money... you can save a person's life out of money. I like money, really, that is why part of the reason why we are here is because of money! hahahah..

well since i don't have my own source of food, shelter, clothing, and i need money to buy them, so i like money...
what will satisfy me is to be able to help myself get out of the rut (w/c means having passive income = money), and help others do the same

Basically for the fact that I've got mouths to feed and bills to pay! If you are getting all the stuff for free then who would even love money?! ^.^

I like money because it gives me some freedom in this society, but money system can burn every day and it is real. Money can't fill your amptiness of heart, because you can't fill your interior (or soul) with external things. For better understanding watch movies like Zeitgeist or esoteric agenda on youtube and you will see the answers

Hi natliegleb,
In this materialistic world we need money for everything.From food ,shelter, clothing, hospitalization etc, only money provides it all. Money even earns us a good status in society and helps us alot in leading a respectable life. So in order to enjoy a stress-free life people need money. If any legit earning opportunity comes around, I'll give it a shot.

I am not a hypocrite, so I would admit that I like money.
Maybe it's not the reason for life on earth, but it does help make things easier. If not for me, for the people that I love.
Sometimes I think that the only people that say 'money is not a reason for life on earth' are the people that have money.

Simple, you live it is definitely a need for both basic and supplementary. To meet the needs that you need the money, the money used as legal tender. To get the money you have to work because the money does not fall from the sky. You should try it before get it. Especially in times like now, there is no free goods. How do you own?

Even I wonder why i like money. Its a piece of paper unworthy of even wiping your rear should you run out of water. I thought barter system was much better where you exchanged goods and that gave you need to stay connected with each other so that one could satisfy the needs of the self and the others. with the advent of money one lusts for it without ever understanding the need of the others or the self.
A barrel of gasoline in exchange for sack of rice and floor, is that a fair exchange.C'mon come out with reasonable exchanges....

my main reason to like money: it can help me get more happiness. and it's true:)
for example: when i was in high school, i always dreamed about going to college in US. but family did not have so much money to send me to US at that time. now that they have more money, they can send me to a university in US. I'm so happy.
other example: if i have much money, i can give an excellent health care for my family members. they can enjoy life with good health and be happy.
if given range of happiness factors from 1 to 10, i would rate money on number 5. the other half is your satisfactory personal relationship with some people and with God.
