Definitely! I've been reading all kinds of books about making money, creating wealth, building wealth, motivation, financial freedom, prosperity, self-help, personal development, anything and everything in between. I need to be obsessed to make money so I could make money so I can move out of my parents' house. So yes, I AM obsessed, as well as fixated, on making money, but in a different way. I don't believe in the saying "it takes money to make money". You can find that out on my blog that's in my profile. So whenever I find an opportunity to make money for free, I take a look at it, take a close inspection of it, and THEN jump on it all over. If it's not a scam, pays moderately, and is certified in any way, I jump on it the first chance I get, just like Associated Content! Sites like this are like finding gold in the Gold Rush of the 1800s. When it pays you, and is legit, you've struck gold.

It's greed that makes us do this. The lack of money is the root of all evil ! LOL

I am also obsessed with making money. I am always looking for new ways to make money. I just never seem to have enough money to stop obsessing. I probably wouldn't stop obsessing over money even if I had enough though. I would start obsessing about how to make even more.

I would not say I am obsessed with it but I do have a desire to grow my home based business to prvide strong financial security for my family. The thing with me is I work a bunch of hours now so I don't have to later and I have a business that really provides something that people need which makes it very rewarding. Being obsessed not a good thing but do not confuse it with having a drive to succeed. Thats is a good thing.

My mother is right now. She spends hours at the computer doing all the online programs. She keeps sending me links and I finally had to tell her enough! I don't have the time or the energy to put in like she does. She's become a monster!

I have been obsessed with making money at different times in my life. Right now I am not feeling obsessed. But, this will change, I am sure, and maybe quite soon. lol
