Money is a dangerous thing.
It becomes the only motivation for some people, whether it be quitting your childhood goals, abandoning your dream job, friends, hometown, or opinions. When families start to look at each other in terms of monetary value, it's the children who are left to wonder, who have my parents been all along?
Money is the ultimate curtain to pull down over the eyes of morality. A necessary evil, people call it. And it's true. We need it to feed our families, send our children to school, and stay off the streets. But when it begins to distort the very fabric of your personality, there is nothing to blame but human greed.
-A businessman embezzles from his company, ignoring that his high school friends would never have let him turn out that way.
-An artist sells 50,000 copies of last year's painting (a project he didn't even like).
-A working man saves money for a vacation he'll never take, choosing to gamble it away in the hopes of a larger fortune.
Money is a very dangerous thing.
