What is your attitude towards money? and why?

Like it? Love it? Hate it? Fear it? 

Add New Argument

Here's the thing about money. You only need enough of it to survive. Every penny over that is just icing on the cake. So, as long as you are educated enough to make enough money to survive, you're OK. If you are really educated and you make a hell of a lot more than you need to survive, then it can go either way. You can either get addicted to the excess cash and what was once enough to survive is no longer enough or, you enjoy the excess but not to the point where you can never go back to the simple things in life ;)

The zigzag stitch is created using a sewing machine, and its design allows it to stretch and flex while still being strong enough to hold the fabric in place. It is also highly versatile, making it ideal for a variety of projects. For some heavier fabrics, a straight stitch may be a better option. This stitch is not as flexible as the zigzag stitch, but it does provide more strength and stability. It is great for sewing large pieces of fabric together, such as when making quilts or curtains. https://teamsewing.com/best-portable-sewing-machine/

You shouldn't love money and you shouldn't hate it. You should respect it.

Side: respect it

Your position is identical to a banker who seeks to protect his right to print from his printing press all the money he wants in order to take all that you could ever own.

Paper money, which I assume you are refering to, is fraud. Why do you respect the fraud of the money-printer?

I like what Jake had to say. You should respect it.

Let's face it, money can bring so much good to this world and it can also bring so much bad. Just like science.

It creates the incentive to build and create such awesome things. It creates a life long goal in life. It keeps you on your toes and focused. Money helps us progress.

But, it corrupts the greed within all of us. It creates a system where you have to hurt others in order to not be hurt yourself. Now, money is not the only thing to create this. It is purely human nature. Money is just ONE OF MANY ways that exploit human nature, and it shouldn't be blamed for the greed we witness.

Side: respect it

I love money...that's because I never have enough to spend! I need someone to set up a fund for me and maybe I can get some of what I need most!

Side: Love It

I tend to distrust money. I don't exactly feel comfortable around people who have money, although when I myself have it, it's fantastic. When I know that someone has money, I almost always look down on them, kind of in that "oh you haven't suffered as much as I have" way that many people do in various circumstances. It's an unfortunate position to be in, and it's difficult to explain.

Side: Distrust it

"He that is of the opinion money will do everything, may well be suspected of doing everything for money." Ben Franklin

The desire to have money is evil. Some call lying, cheating, and stealing; business. Find an honest business man and will find a poor person.

Unfortunately I need it in order to get by in today's world. I don't want to not have enough of it but I don't want to have too much of it either. Of course I strive to live the highest standard of living I could possibly have, but of what benefit would millions of dollars be to me after I have met all of my necessities in life? It could give me pleasure, but it wouldn't make me truly happy in life. I would probably just give it away to someone who might actually need it. I'd rather be poor than rich.

Side: need it
