Why is this world obsessed with money?

Hello,

I'm very curious,

Personally I would give it all up,

I would rather have my happiness than money.

What are your opinions on this matter if anything?

Thankyou
Can you tell me how much of this money you have?

Answers:
i agree with you in theory, give up all my money for happiness. but that is such an abstract thought. give up all your money-does that mean give up your houes and car and clothes and everything you own? or just your bank account but you still own a house and a hummer and all your things. and happiness for the moment? or happiness for all time. its just not really that pragmatic, so in short yes, give it all up for the abstract idea of happiness.

i have about $200
I'm with you. Let's start a commune.
Because we can be

Show me the money!

I have like no money, and I don't miss it, but I have to admit that it is nice to have just for convenience's sake. :)
Well money makes me happy.Thats why I like it.
I don't care to tell you how much money I have but I too would rather have happiness than money. Some people think you can buy happiness but you can't. I'm glad you know that you can't buy happiness.
because it can be traded for goods and sevases and working wemon

ive got like, ten bucks
The world is obsessed with money because money makes the world go around.
I don't know, it's only paper!
Cause money makes the world go around.Money is the launage of power and respect.
money buys things. things tend to make you happy. ppl tend to want to be ur friend if they know u can pay for them. society is stupid.
People feel like they never have enough money to buy the things that they want.
I NEED A COLORADO QUARTER!!
because prices are so high and you need money to live and enjoy and have FUN
CASH
RULES
EVERYTHING
AROUND

GET THE MONEY.DOLLA DOLLA BILLS Y'ALL
Because its a "god" to many, like drugs, sex, etc. I'll tell you how much I have if you tell me how much you have ( money, that is)
I dont know dude..I am the same way I would way more rather have happyness than money
moeny seems to be the general trading currency and since most people dont have much to barter with other than moeny, ie; a valuable skill set, we are slaves to the thing that is green, if you live in the united states that is. otherwise the truly wise can learn to live without money, but most of the people whoget a taste for it never want to give it up. Its just a "I want to be like hi8m" thing where people arent happy with their lifes and dont realize struggle that people go through to obtain something that should be much more scarce
without money, you can't do much. there's a cost to everything.
Peoples' values are misplaced and people are more skeptical in this day in age so they keep to themselves more. The "role models" of society, the people that lots of people keep track of their lives, are celebrities who are celebrities because they're rich.
Because the world is capitalist!
Money is the root of all evil. God will provide all the needs and desires of your life, if your focus is on God and his path for your life. If ones focus is on money, they choose to worship money as an idol and therefore, they place that before God and no good can ever come from that.
The love of money is the root of all evil.

Money is power and at our most primal level the need to be dominant rules our humanity.and in today's world money dominates all.that is why money controls us.

It is sick. And it sickens me.
I just put in my notice to quite a job of which I make more money than anyone else I know. I did this because I would rather be rich in family than money. Unfortunately, we as Americans have decided that the material objects have more meaning than the intangible ones.
he who says money cant buy happiness never had to argue with sprint, turn on their own electric after hours, borrow until their friends hate their a**. make me rich, i show you a happy s.o.b.
Ask the RZA, the Gza or Method Man.C.R.E.A.M or cash rules everyting around me.

LOL!
"the LOVE of money is the root of all evil", not money itself. money represents labor or work and can be used for good. money also leads to greed and power. never heard of a poor politician.
Health and happiness 1st but as Im so unfit , unhappy Ill take the money please!! Seriously money is only an issue if you have loads of it or none at all!!
