The lack of money is the root of all evil.Â
– Mark Twain
Meaning of this quote:
It’s not money, it is the lack of money, which is the root of all evil. People can cross their moral limits in pursuit of money. Sometimes people forget that money is just a one of the essential thing not everything. We should not forget the true value of our life. We should follow our dreams and passion rather than money.
The lack of money is the root of all evil:
There is no harm in the money. But there is a harm in the fear of lack of money. It is the fear of the lack of money, which is the root of all evil. There is the fear of lack of money because people always try to put the money above all else.
Even some people judge the other on the basis of how much cash they have. Everything has some bad influence. I believe in a life, positivity should get more value rather than money.
We should not forget that money is just an asset not everything. Money should not be the motivation to live a life. If we care about our passion money will take care of itself. We should focus on our good work.
We all have one wonderful thing called life. Life is all about the finding a purpose which can help us to move forward. We should be motivated by our passion rather than money because it takes nothing to give up when we don’t have any passion.
Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me. Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful that’s what matters to me.
–Â Steve Jobs
Money is either a good or bad influence:
Napoleon Hill, once said: “Money is either a good or bad influence, according to the character of the person who possesses it“.
Money can do the good things, it can help us to build the great hospitals or schools, in short, money can do all great things and probably solve all problems. On the other side, it can be used to do the destructive things and that’s the reason why money is either a good or bad influence.
As we build our wealth it is our duty to build our character too by helping the others. We should help the one who needs so that one day they also can be able to help the someone.
Wealth gives us the ability to explore the life. But it doesn’t mean we should forget to live while chasing the money. We, humans, are the most advanced species and we should not waste our valuable time in doing the things which don’t matter.
Money is the most important asset after all no one can live without it. And it is the most powerful tool which can really help us to build something positive which can make a difference in everyone’s lives.
 We don’t build services to make money, we make money to build better services.
– Mark Zuckerberg
We should make an enough wealth which can help us to explore our life. Life is meant to be happy. Money doesn’t buy happiness, but still, it can solve the major problems.
When we able to be the wealthiest person we should use our wealth in a positive direction. Money can have a good influence once we start using it in a positive way.

Money can solve almost all problems if we have a positive intention.
Follow the passion instead of the money:Â
Just thinking about the money is the small thinking. Donald Trump Once said: “As long as you’re going to be thinking anyway, think big“. Money is the motivation for doing a job for the majority of the people, and the reason behind this is the fear of the lack of money. In a life, we should follow our passion and dreams instead of money because it’s takes nothing to give up when we don’t have any passion.
Follow your dreams. money and happiness will follow you.
We should follow our dreams because it is more valuable rather than money. Remember one thing all great things started as a dream. In a life, you can achieve anything once you have the courage to follow your heart.
The lack of money is the root of all evil. Because of lack of money, people have to give up on their dreams. Remember that money is the most important asset. Many people fail or give up because they are motivated by money, not passion. Yes, we should think about the money, but along with the dream and passion.Remember that money is important as much as oxygen, after all, we can’t live without it. Not having money can limit our lives. Money can give us the freedom to do what we love.
We should not run for the money instead of that it’s better to take some smart decisions. We should invest in the assets which can pay the bills. Remember, there are only a few ways to save the money and thousands to earn more.
Follow your passion, do what you love and money will follow you.Â
If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and ability. – Henry Ford
Money is not the root of all evil:
I believe, Neither money nor the lack of money is the root of all evil. It is a love of money, which is the root of all evil. And it’s not necessarily the lack of money, but it’s the fear of lack of money. We should not forget that life is much more important and more valuable rather than anything.
There is nothing wrong with the love of money if we have really positive intentions. Money is really a great tool which we can use to help the others.
Fear of the lack of money is the root of all evil. Even millionaires can have the fear, no matter how much they have.
In a life, we should go after a dream and passion rather than money. We should not forget that money is just a tool which we used as a method of exchange.
The bottom line is, it is the misuse of money on the destructive things which is the root of all evil.
I do not think Mark Twain said that. It was George Bernard Shaw.
You may have to reach much earlier to get the first quote that this concept is based upon. Paul, the Apostle, in his first letter to his disciple Timothy wrote “Those who want to be rich, however, fall into temptation and become ensnared by many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. By craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows.”
I believe, through reading Paul’s advice to the young pastor Timothy, Paul knew that money was not the problem in itself. The key concept is that our relationship with money should be in balance. But a love (desire, affection, craving) for money can easily ensnare any one of us.
