How do you guys feel about "money is the root of all evil"?
Money makes the world go around.

Fakin......My household income was 180K last year and things weren't that easy. I live in the NYC metro area BTW.
you got dem jays doeMan, I'll tell you why I am financially irresponsible. It's the feeling that I get when I buy something. I swear it's a natural high and I'm so addicted to it. I keep telling myself getting a job in High School is the best and worst thing to ever happen to me.![]()
Couple of reasons:
From a personal standpoint, when you come from a background with no means to save, you can't learn how to save. Period. Live to survive.
Now, when I was younger, I used to blow my Financial Aid refund checks on jordans and other **** but nothing truly gratifying.
Now at the age of 25, I got my first tax refund check and saved 70% of that. My truck's water pump gave out and , through lessons learned and old habits broken, I had enough in my savings to back up this emergency repair. It's a long and rigorous process to teach oneself of financial literacy. My credit is shot to **** and I'm receiving the repercussions of it but I'm working on it, plus I have a girlfriend (who is a teacher who is paid 12x a year and is great with finances btw) who helps me stay on course.
short answer is: living outside of your means. But one day, it all catches up to you and you either have to wake up or keep dreaming. I prefer to wake up.
I'm trying to get on your status. Got a long way to go.

Money is amoral. It is neither good nor evil. It only reveals our true character and priorities. If we are selfish without money, it'll only be enhanced with it. If we are generous with our money before we have it, we'll be able to help even more people once we have more.

Good way to put it. Really good way. Nice perspective.

The bible actually says the LOVE of Money is the root of evil. Money itself isn't the issue, but if a person loves money and is willing to do anything under the sun to get it then problems can arise.
Edit- I see CRC already beat me to it![]()
