Brother RMB (Chinese Man Protesting Love of Money)
Global Times ^ | July 20, 2010 | Editors

An unidentified man who stuck real 100-yuan notes on the front of his clothes and wore and ancient Chinese shackle makes a statement in Kunming, Yunan Province Wednesday. A sign on his back reads: "Is money everything?" Local security guards tried, but failed, to remove him. He told onlookers that his aim was to say that "money has become a yoke of the present generation."

But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. But they that will be rich fall into tempatation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. (1 Timothy 6:6-10)
