CodeToad: "Money was the reason Lincoln went into the war. He was a railroad attorney..."

Money alone was not justification for war.
That's why in his Inaugural Address on March 4, 1861 Lincoln told secessionists they could not have a war unless they themselves started it.

Which they soon did.

Why are you so intent to confuse yourselves on these matters?
