Money will not buy you happiness, but it will get you a better class of misery.

I completely hate money. It's the worst thing you can have. You'll become evil with money in your pockets...

 

That's why I quickly expend it all... I'm heading to the music store in a couple of hours...

You need money to listen to as much as you can, you need money to eat and you need money to get a beer. I it weren't for those things, I wouldn't care about money. It's not the money that counts, but what you can do with it.

Money = overrated

But if you want to assume money is evil...
then you might be interested in this little matematical proof.

Time = Money
Money = Evil
Girls = Time
Girls = Money

Girls = Time X Money

make a few substitutions...

Girls = Money X Money
Girls = Money^2
Girls = Evil^2
(Girls)^1/2 = Evil

Therefore, girls are the root of all evil.

You would think I'd have taken a more serious approach to life at the age of 37 wouldn't you?  Not a chance!

Nothing to spend it on but CDs AND BEER!

I don't love money, but I love having it!

I have love for neither money nor god.  Actually, money is a necessary evil for all the stuff I want to buy, plus rent and bills and so on, but it is merely a means to an end.  As for god, don't believe in it, never will.
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

Valarius and JrKASperov:

Let's make sure we get the Scripture correct.  It is the love of money that is the root of all evil; not money per se.  After all, Solomon was the richest man who ever lived, yet he was considered beloved of God because he did not ask for money but for wisdom.  So God gave him both.

There is nothing wrong with making money, having money or spending money.  Although hording is certainly "evil" within the Scriptural definition, the mere fact of being able to afford "non-essential" things is not, in and of itself, evil.  There are "good" rich people and "bad" rich people - just as there are "good" poor people and "bad" poor people.

It is ultimately the motives, intentions and reasons behind one's wealth and how one handles it  that determine its "danger" as an "evil."

Peace.

I may have not done that right... there's a more elegant version of it somewhere.
