We do all work hard for the money because we cannot deny the fact that money pays the bills, takes us to places, and satiates all our basic needs in life.
People tend to do evil things because they need money to support their family.
Money is of a great interest to almost everybody. Why not? Just like I have said, this can bring comfort to anyone’s life. Some even tries to console themselves with the thought that money is not everything because they cannot do something about getting more of it no matter how desperate they work hard.
While it is true that money can provide us almost everything that we need; the love for money is the root of all evil. This can kill a good person in you and destroy your spirituality. There is nothing wrong to wish for more as long as it is good earned money.
This can also be used to reach out for others like sharing your blessings. Money can destroy character especially if it is not well-earned and well-spent. Money matters, yes but it is still how you get it and how you spend it matters most

Yes it's important as it can buy almost everything for us but too much love with money is dangerous

Money is important because humans use money to buy everything that is essential, food, furniture, cars, everything.
Some people consider that showing to have more money make them more "important", that their need to make money, only to show up.

That is really true. Money becomes meaningless when it is not actually used for what it is intended for.

@cherigucchi Imagine a world where suddenly no one wants to use money anymore, goods are exchanged against other goods... the money would be worthless.

Exactly. It is nt the money which is evil but it is the love for the money itself.

Money can be used of what we need to have for our everyday living. It is hard if we don't have money because in the world we need it and we can't deny it.

It is important to have enough..but over reliance or the belief it is going to make you happy will not work. We all know people with lots of money that aren't happy.

You have to think about 'what money IS'---yes, it's 'what you trade to get products-&-services (and/or ACCESS to their us)'; but at its base, money is 'something that represents the value of a resource you've given away' (that's why they call it "making money," even if 'all it ever is' is "receiving agreed-upon gifts others have decided your lost time-or-energy-or-products are worth").
So money is important, because--without it--you might feel like you're wasting your time.

Yes it's important as we can buy things which comfort us. It can buy food which is essential for our survival. But it cannot buy many things which are also important for us like friendship, relations, love etc.
Still it's important in life.

Money is essentially good. But we should not do evil just to have it

That is right. We need it to be able to survive but that does not mean that it is everything we need.
