What is money? Not sure, but storing it should be a problem. Rockefeller had to move to a bigger house with a circular driveway so the carts of money bags wouldn't have to struggle to get by each other and back up to get out. Horses are okay as we are probably going to find out in the years ahead, but they don't back up well.

Not sure, I suppose "money" is all things material in context of the Bible. Here is the correct to my correction:

"But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs."

Good advice, really --- while being or getting rich is fine, such is not what life is about.
