Who likes money???? - Progressive Rock Music Forum

Well, you basically need it to survive in the world today. So, as much as money spawns greedy, selfish bastards like most of the American upper class, I would have to say that I sort of like it. That is, until I move out of my house and live in the woods.

I don't believe in demons
I don't believe in devils
I only believe in you

HAVING BECOME RECENTLY UNEMPLOYED BECAUSE OF THE DROUGHT HERE IN AUSTRALIA(RECENTLY BROKEN.........SORT OF)I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY,REALLY,REALLY,REALLY MISS MONEY

LIKE MOST PEOPLE I LIKE MY CREATURE COMFORTS,AND CREATURE COMFORTS REQUIRE CASH

OH WELL AS OUR FAMOUS OUTLAW NED KELLY WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE UTTERED AS HIS LAST WORDS BEFORE HANGING,..... "SUCH IS LIFE"

THINGS WILL IMPROVE

YOU DA MAN VELVE!!!

Evil

It’s not a goal that people consciously set for themselves

Yet millions… billions… have been embraced by its seductive coils

It can hide behind a variety of disguises

Power

Desire

Competition

Justification

Self-Interest

Though most profess their innocence

Each of us has faced it in our lives…

Each of us has touched it

However briefly

The bible calls it sin

And has identified its root;

The love of money

If the thought of an honest wage to cover honest expenses seems like a sign of stunted growth

If it doesn’t matter where the profit comes from

Or where it goes…

Watch out

Trade and barter are real

Cash can be used for any thing or activity

It’s an abstract

Money comes from nowhere and promises everything

If your motives aren’t clean

Money itself becomes evil

But… when we don’t have enough money

Enough evil

The world tells us we’re losers

So, what determines our place in society

Is not how much kindness is in our hearts

But how much evil is in our wallets

Money = the Mammon.

the Bible states 'one cannot serve God and the Mammon'

Clear case to me

Epic.

FZappa told: "we're only on it for the money"...

I have a love hate relationship with money. I love to
have it. But I hate being responsible for it.
Can't live with it. Can't live without it.
Cliche' anyone?

Wearing feelings on our faces when our faces took a rest...

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

I bleed coffee. When I don't drink coffee, my veins run dry, and I shrivel up and die.

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.
