    Elcadobes. You’re absolutely correct. It is a principle spoken of often in the Bible. One such is:- “For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.” ‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭6:10‬ ‭NIVUK‬‬ If all you think about is money, and getting more of it, you loose so much in terms of society and friendship. It’s also a corrupting factor and may lead to becoming another “Scrooge”: sad and lonely. Blessings

    I thought the saying was “the love of money is the source of all evil”. I think that can be true in a lot of cases!
