A little joke in order to begin this subject:

MONEY?

He can buy an house but not a family home
He can buy a bed but not the sleep
He can buy a clock but not the time
He can buy a book but not the knowledge
He can buy a status but not the respect
He can pay a doctor but not the health
He can buy blood but not the life
He can buy sex but not the love

As you can notice, money hold few importance and often, he bring problems and suffering.
I tell you this because you are my friends and I wish avoid you theses nuisances.
Then, send me all your money and I will suffer for you. Cash only please and in small banknote

What do you think about this?

Money control our life? is it possible to live another society without money as mean of exchange?

[Makiy0]

Two phrases: Money makes the world go round; lack of money is the root of all evil.

Your joke on money works both ways. Poor people too can't buy a home, sleep, time, knowledge, respect, health, life, love, etc...
But they can't buy a house, bed, clock, book, status, doctor, blood, sex.

For example, if a rich guy and a poor guy contracts an illness, the rich guy can hire the best specialists and afford the best health care and latest most effective drugs. The poor guy has to be content with 3rd class service and in countries that do not have a statute that requires compulsory health care to be awarded to all in need, countries such as the US and Singapore, then the hospitals can choose not to treat you simply because you can't afford to pay them.

Money causes many problems when you have a lack of it. Just being really practical here. Money can help to make life a lot easier and mre comfortable. It may not be the most important thing in life but it sure is important.

Money was not always the primary means of exchange in trade. Before money was materialised, exchanges were done in barter. Good for good. Coffee for cattle, vegetable for clothes, etc. So it's definitely possible but to revert back is impossible due to inconvenience.

Fortune is not a goal for himself.We can reach love, knowledge and respect of the others without going through the money square.

That's right health care eguality is different between poor and rich but it's our system which is bad.

Money was at the beginning a mean of exchange (in order to facilitate barter). He become now an instrument of ineguality, egoism and individualism. He promote the fact that a man worth more than another man.Accepting this concept is accepting this kind of equilibrium.

'Having intention to be rich is human' certain people can say that but these two words are opposed in definitive. We are all a little egoist. It's the human nature.

Even if we share our money with others it's because we wait unconsciously gratitude.

I follow this movement like the others. Me too, i would like to be rich. By those feelings, i support this concept. That's why i have a great respect for people who give up all for becoming like a monk,theresa mother or simply a countryman which cultivate is garden ( Like Candide in Voltaire )
Do you have read it? very interesting point of view.

Morality we will be better without money in this world

Morally speaking, maybe so. But in our world so focused on convenience evidenced by widespread use of automation, computers, cellular phones, wireless technology, etc. Money is a necessary tool for life.

And the other thing is, the more money you have, the more "convenient" your life will be. It is a rat race. Welcome to earth.

Welcome to Earth - Such unconciliatory words.

Welcome in the consumtion economy!
I offer you two watches for the price of one! even if you need only one!
More you can buy more we can create a need
We live in a vicious circle

Depend on how you use your money, that it may be the roots of evil or goodness.
