What does Money mean to you?

I have been in situations where money was worth absolutely nothing. In these situations though, there were other things that had value in trade.
I think Willie Nelson put it best when he said...
"You can't eat it, drink it or smoke it... It's just a tool".
Like any other tool, it only has value if someone else wants it. I have a boatload of tools that I'll probably never use again. They meant a lot to me at one time, but now they are worthless... But if someone wanted them, then they would be worth something again.
The same with money.

I disagree with you about money leading to crime. When I was a paramedic, I dealt with a lot of victims of all sorts of crimes... I also dealt with all sorts of criminals.
Rarely did the criminal commit the crime because he or she needed the money.

money has special place in my heart, though some people say "money is a root of evil" but I like it a lot, maybe because I'm an evil too hehehehe
but as you see, money maybe can't buy everything but surely you need money for everything

Hey, it isn't "money" that is the root of all evil, it is the "love of money". If you love money, I guess the "good" or "evil" of it would be what you love to do with your money.
