Is Money Really The Root of All Evil?

Is money evil? Many people think that money is not spiritual and materialist - why is this? What are your beliefs? Are they even your beliefs at all?

This is a subject that I have been battling with for a long time now. Coming from a poor background and being surrounded by poverty for a large percentage of my life, I have certainly picked up a great deal of negativity around money. However, I keep thinking more and more these days... why do people belief that having no money is spiritual? Why are we holding ourselves back from fulfillment and freedom by believing that lack is good for us?

Ask yourself this... Do you agree that having no food and shelter is spiritual? Is it spiritual to have sections of society with no homes and no warmth? Did you know that the biggest cause of marriage breakups and ill health is a consequence of financial worries and stress? How are we supposed to help those less fortunate without the flow of money?

Money gives us the ability to be free... to live a life of ultimate freedom! I argue it is 'not' spiritual to live a life of worry, stress, depression and bad health because you cant pay your bills, pay for clothing, buy healthy nutritious food and keep up health insurance payments. How is this spiritual?

It makes me wonder.... Are we doing each other a huge dis-service by spreading the word that people with money are greedy? That money is the root of all evil? That money is not important! Who told you this anyway and why do you believe their view so much?

I'm not saying money is everything but what money represents is pretty damn important!

With money comes freedom! With money comes choice! With money comes health! With money comes experiences! With money comes opportunity!

Now let's reverse the analogy that money is not spiritual for a moment!

Imagine this... You give 10% of your overall income per month to charities of your choice. You no longer worry about paying your bills and keeping a roof over your head. You are able to eat food of your choice... fresh meat, fresh fruit and fresh vegetables. You no longer need to live in a place full of pollution... you can live in the beautiful countryside or by the sea. You no longer worry about how you can pay your health insurance or those wonderful trips worldwide that enable you to experience different cultures and grow from the inside out. You can get massages on a regular basis and go out for dinner and go on dates. You can buy the books you love and attend courses and classes that inspire you.

Tell me now that money is not spiritual? Tell me now that money is the root of all evil? Why is it that only people with no money tend to belief these negative points about money anyway?

We are supposed to live a life of happiness, abundance, success & fulfillment. A life packed with incredible experiences and creations. And what is even more ironic is that spiritual teachers tell you this. Abraham Hicks, Donald Walsh (Conversations with God), Joe Vitale, John Assaraf... I could go on and on and on. All spread the beauty and importance of abundance, prosperity and wealth... in all areas of your being!

Do yourself a favour and begin to feel worthy of all you desire! Open yourself up to receive everything you want... freedom, wealth and prosperity. You can give, give, give... all day long and every day of the week, but if you are not open to also receive... you will create resistance and there will be a lack of flow in your life and the world.

Feed your soul with rich experiences, with incredible organic food, with an environment that supports your health and with wondrous experiences.

As always, I would love to hear your comments on this... and feel free to drop me a line on Facebook or Twitter.

Have an abundant week and start reaching for those things that make you feel fabulous... be guilt free and live your dream life! You totally deserve it!

Warm wishes

Money - Is It Really The Root Of All Evil?

Throughout history, wise men and women have commented on money. Publius Syrus stated, "Money alone sets the world in motion." Benjamin Franklin later said, "Remember that time is money." But, the most famous of all is perhaps, "Money is the root of all evil." Unfortunately this is a misquote from The Bible found in the book of Timothy chapter 6:10 which reads, "The love of money is the root of all evil." Just adding those two words makes a huge difference.

I can't help but think of all the good that has been done with money. For example, Bill and Melinda Gates gave over 3 billion to their foundation. Think of all the charities around the world. People such as the Rockerfellers, and Ted Turner seem to be obsessed with giving money away. In 2005, Slate.com's list of 60 most generous donors totaled $4.3 billion-with the smallest donations at $20 million and the largest at over $400 million.

Who benefits from all this philanthropy? All kinds of people and places and programs benefit from donations. McDonalds uses the money to build shelters with a place to sleep and food. The Gates foundation is organized around fighting killer diseases around the world. Other charities give to environmental and animal welfare organizations.

Of course, the average person is not greedy when it comes to giving either. The average American gives over $400 a year to various charities, and that doesn't count money given to religious organizations or the value of personal property they donate.

Of course, there are plenty of wealthy people out there who don't care. They wouldn't give anyone a dime. They love money just for the sake of being rich, and refuse to share their wealth with others. A wealthy boss of mine once said, "The only thing having money does is free you from worrying about money."

Back to our quotes, they are all great. Having money is indeed enjoyable. Not having it is indeed stressful and unpleasant, especially when the bills just keep coming. And remember, money does make the world go 'round. And, time is money.

You work an 8 to 10 hour day in exchange for money. The time doesn't belong to you, it belongs to your boss. The company decides how much money your time is worth. Wouldn't you like to be in control of your own money and time? Think of all the money you could save by starting your own home-based business. Your income is based on the amount of work you put in. You would save on the commute. You wouldn't have to feel under paid or frustrated. You could double, triple, or quadruple your income.

Benjamin Franklin understood that a person should be able to decide what his or her own time is worth. There is great wisdom in considering a home-based business which puts you are in control.
