Who is bad? Money or the People? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 99/100. rjvb26 (282)   ranked 735 out of 37,907 in life2 weeks ago

A lot of conflicts had happen and a lot of lives had been sacrificed just for the sake of wealth/money/richness. A lot of people say that money is evil because it drives a person to be evil, but... is money really evil? I mean money is only a paper or a coin that is used for trading. So is money really evil or is it the peoples craving for lust, power, pride, richness and etc. that made people more hungry of money? The higher the hunger of money to people the higher the chance of doing bad things. So in your opinion, what do you think?

Money isn't evil, the love of money is evil.


myLot reputation of 99/100. rjvb26 (282)   ranked 735 out of 37,907 in life  2 weeks ago

Hi

I agree with you! It's the hunger for money not the money it self.

i agree with you...

rsa, below me, is correct - objects are not good or evil - its what is done with or for the object that is...

there is a saying, guns don't shoot people, people shoot people... a gun can defend a person's life from another person, or it can be used against an innocent person - but the gun doesn't pull the trigger

money has no value except what people put on the money - it may have a 2 and a 0 printed on it, but only when someone else excepts the paper in exchange for an item does it get value

Money is neutral to everything man does to it. Money won't do you any harm or evil if you yourself won't decide to do it. We humans are the ones that decides what to make out of it. We can use it for good and we can use it for bad things too. Money won't side with any of the two that is why I categorize it as a neutral thing.


myLot reputation of 99/100. rjvb26 (282)   ranked 735 out of 37,907 in life  2 weeks ago

Exact answer that i was expecting from a intelligent avid responder of my discussions. You are right about that, money has nothing to do with it, it is the people who do bad things by their will.

Hi rjvb26,

For me, money is a representation of the possible things that man can acquire... Money changes man's view about life. Whether we like or not we often choose to have millions of wealth than to have no money at all. But money was never been bad. It is how people treat wealth or money in their lives. Money was not evil at all, it is how people spend it..it is always about one's intention and a person perception in having so much wealth. We humans are making it evil for as we all know it is just a piece of paper and a metal coin that cannot make decisions.. but we do.

Happy mylotting!


myLot reputation of 99/100. rjvb26 (282)   ranked 735 out of 37,907 in life  2 weeks ago

Exactly! we are the ones who is deciding not the money

Hi rjvb26


What the comparison between money and man. I think there are some basic point need to make comparison . Some thing though bring under comparison I think that are actually can't be taken under comparison. When we compare two things then we must have some similarity of the things those taken under comparison.

Sorry to say I find nothing there to compare man and money. Some thing has so many contradiction that we can analyze the quality but in two different category. As what type of comparison will come to student and teacher. The Sun and the Earth.

But here I just say two lines here.....
Money is the concept that creation mans mind to facilitated the transaction. Once money was slaved to man. But the change of the day man are going now under salvation of money day by day.

We invented that to keep under control now we are controlled by that.

The is the comparison I just want to put here. That the relation of money and man...is master and salve. But now it looked like the status is changed through rotation and permutation process. Once money was slave man are master....now it look like man is slave and money is the master.


Thanks
Happy myloting.

Money is not evil, it is the importance man has put on money that makes it evil. I think it depends on the situation. A man with money filled with greed and scratches eyes out to get more is evil, while a man without money in need to feed his family and say steals it is not as evil in my eyes. It is said that as the human race we have put the importance of money over human life or the quality of life. It is a human shame that people are dieing every day because they do not have the money for medical treatment. How can we be so heartless.


myLot reputation of 99/100. rjvb26 (282)   ranked 735 out of 37,907 in life  2 weeks ago

money is not evil, People are not evil either, it's greed that's evil. Life in this world has no certainty so it makes people want money to prepare for any eventualities because it's a fact that money is involved in anything that we do. Money is power and power is addicting. So to feed for that addiction, people would want more money and the cycle continues. Bottom line is, without greed people would be happy and contented for what they have. Cheers!

Another nice answer coming from you keep it up

Ei that is a Tarsier right?


myLot reputation of 97/100. LetranKnight25 (4112)   ranked 645 out of 37,907 in life  2 weeks ago

happywell, yeah i agree with you that greed is evil but only considered when a person get's involved with it and do it with his or her knowledge . money can be used for good if the person chooses to do so, because if they prefer keeping on their own and getting more from others, that is greed. no doubt about itsadsad


myLot reputation of 95/100. ybong007 (740)   ranked 1,154 out of 37,907 in life  2 weeks ago

yep, it looks hideous isn't it, well to me it is, it scares me sometimes LOL.. You are not the first person who noticed it, in fact somebody here in mylot commented that it scared him too.

happyhello rjvb,

I believe that money is just a necessity. the notion that money can be good or evil depends on how the person use the money. Or how the person how can be obessive with money, it's no joke when some one get blinded to money because most people end up doing bad things to other like crimes or cheating to another. Just like those people who are cheating in business that got arrested in wall street few weeks ago, they were getting money illegally and that's bad. sad

So, in regarding to the discussion, i think the bad here is the people who used money for the wrong reasons and doesn't benefit others but him/herself. those people are called greedy i think, so don't get blinded by money. there are things important than just having so much money in the world. you can't bring it when you diethumbup


myLot reputation of 99/100. rjvb26 (282)   ranked 735 out of 37,907 in life  2 weeks ago

You are right... We accept it or not, it is the human who do the bad things for money not the money who makes the human do bad things... Money is a paper, Humans are living things and the highest form and can think...

no people no money.people carve for lust,power,pride and richness,they mainly do that for money.

which is bad which is good?No one could tells clearly.


myLot reputation of 99/100. rjvb26 (282)   ranked 735 out of 37,907 in life  2 weeks ago

People are the ones who created money therefore if human will tell that money makes human evil, then human is the root of evil. Just like what I've said, a money is a paper, and a human is a high form of living thing that can think.. They do even have their own will.

If we are not greedy to acquire more money I think this world is peaceful. We need money to survive in this world sometimes people are been a slave of money. Money is not the cause of evil but us because we like to be rich and powerful that's why even if what we are doing is not right and even if the people around us are suffering.


myLot reputation of 99/100. rjvb26 (282)   ranked 735 out of 37,907 in life  2 weeks ago

You are right! It is the greed of the people that makes people evil, it is not the money.

It's really very obvious I think. People are the ones who are handling the money and they are the ones who are in control of it. So, they are definitely the bad ones. It's really up to us on how we treat others or things when we have that money. Others would use that wisely and help others like those who are really in need. And others are those who are selfish enough who have that money already but still wants more, I just wish those people will realize something positive.


myLot reputation of 99/100. rjvb26 (282)   ranked 735 out of 37,907 in life  2 weeks ago

Yes i also wish that we people realize, that it is us not the money.

Money is just a facilitator in the end.. people are evil


myLot reputation of 99/100. joannaleed (1129)   ranked 960 out of 37,907 in life  2 weeks ago

Money is such a scary thing. And the people are the ones who are evil and can't control it.
