You obviously have not read Marx's essay. Karl Marx completely bought into the stereotype of the greedy, heartless Jew money-lender -- the very personification of the "vampiric forces of dead capital sucking the life blood of the workers" which featured in his life's work. Actually, Marx was an habitual debtor, and his ramshackle philosophy is a pretentious, pseudo-scientific amalgam of Hegelian mysticism and displaced personal resentment. Paul Johnson's Intellectuals includes an amusingly sardonic psychological portrait of the old fraud.

Not with the same degree of misunderstanding that you and your friends have applied to it, no.
