Money is important, we all know that it is. I'm tired of hearing that money is the root of evil -- the point of the matter is money isn't the root of all evil. It depends on the people who has the money. It depends on how you'll use the money. Will you use it for the good or for the bad? The four rules on money: Earn it honestly, invest it carefully, spend it wisely and give it generously. Give it generously = Self Actualization

Hi, friend. My answer to this question is definite. Yes, money is very important to us humans. No one can do without it. We use money to buy bread, clothes and other daily necessities. You may have seen beggars, haven't you? Why are they it that difficult situation? It's all because of lacking of money. That's why we work hard to earn money to support ourselves. Be that as it may, we need to think of money in a right way so as not to be a slave to money.

Money spins the world today. Maybe before many many years ago it had been better. I hate money, because we are their slaves and we can't do anything about it. F*** money :(

You don't need to have money, my friend. We work hard to earn money, but we are not slaves to money. Rather, money is our slave in many ways. It has to serve us whenever we're in need. Eating, shopping, trading... Thus we obtain what we want. So money in fact brings us joys instead of sufferings.

Absolutely my friend...money is very important to a human being. We used money to buy foods. To send children to school and buy their other school needs. We used money in everything we do. Sometimes money can even buy you friends and partner. For me money is very powerful but it's only a material thing and nothing else. But if you tried to leave in a province you can live your life with out needing much money not like in the city. In the province you can plant crops that don't need fertilizer. You can also grow vegetables and live in a healthy way. The needs of money differ in each individuals status of life. Some need it so little and some need it so big.

nehmer that is a really good question i think money gives power and with great power gives great responsibility. So you cant always use money to over power someone like in a hostage situation if you think you can pay someone to not kill you your wrong they will kill you even faster xD so yea dont show off how much you got keep in personal

nothing in this world will ever say, money is nothing. we need money to move around, pay the rent and the bills, buy food for the family, needs it to buy fuel and run the car, etc.

Yes, money is very important these days. You can't buy things you need without any cash in hand. i am working hard to make some cash online. as much as i wanted to have a real stable career, i can't. why? because my illness doesn't allow me to do so... really annoying, isn't? i am very thankful to Our Lord Jesus Christ because He has given me a wonderful opportunity to make some money that will help support my medical needs.

Yeah, as far as I am concerned, I think the money is really so important for our life,which we can be not short of. But it can not be regarded as the most important part in our daily life. Because we still have our family and friends around us.

hi nehmer, there are many far more important things in life to think about. health is one and happiness another etc etc. money is just a commodity, if you would like. but for the fact that in a society we have come to know and live in now money is required because of its intrinsic value. money serves as a medium of exchange to get some of the things we need to live and to live happily. money buys us health through the good, health-giving food we eat daily. money pays the bills for the energy/electricity that runs our house where can live in happily and comfortably.

I think it is important in this day and age for human survival. Most people if they lost their money they would have a hard time to get food for their family, and meet other necessary needs. I personally think that it is so sad that money has so much power over a lot of people. To me as long as my needs and my children's need are met any money that comes is not important.

There is no harm if one wants to earn money since without it life will be extremely difficult.Money is important for everone and everyone needs money enough to lead a comfortable life. However having too less money or having too much money is also not advisable since both situations can cause severe problems. the differnce is that the poor man wants to become rich and the rich man wants to earn more wealth. If a man has very less money he should strive to earn enough to feed his family and also save for a rainy day. If a man has too much wealth then he should keep enough for himself and his family members and what is extra he should utilise for the welfare of those who do not have any money.Money is used wisely will lead to good fortune and if used unwisely can become a hydra headed monster which can plunge the owner into great trouble.

Yes its quite important to get most material things that life has to offer.But at the same time we should be utilse the money at our disposal productively instead of wasting it.Though money can buy material comforts enjoying life in the true spirit depend on our mind.If we are positive we can derive pleasures even from small things in life.Money is important to an extent but its not the ultimate in order of importance to a human being.

Today, money is a good feeling factor in human's life. House, food , clothes etc can be bought with money. Therefore money is important in human life other than religion, family, love etc.

I think money is the root of all kinds of evil. Money is a form of exchange so that you can buy food or things that you need. We work on the job in exchange of salary in the form of money. Money is not too important because in ancient time we live on planting foods and raising animals. And also it depends on the situation where money is the king to buy everything except love.

Yes money is essential in our lives. To live we need money. Without money there is a lot of problems in families. But I would like to add that we should not have excess and we should earn it then there is value to the money we have.

it is important. Because we need money for our daily needs like food, shelter, school, medicines, etc. Money doesnt make us bad. As the saying goes, money is a good servant but a poor master. As long as we use it wisely and properly, nothing will go wrong.
