Money is the root of nearly all evil. Right along with power.
Money is a tool, that provides choices in life and thus also incentive. Those who are addicted to the making of money while ignoring other aspects of life will find the other side of life rather interesting.
Eternally so.
A very wise statement, and so true. Like a weapon in the hand of the bearer - a tool for good or evil.
Wisdom and money can get you almost anything, but only wisdom can save your life.
- King Solomon
