To think there’s nothing wrong with loving money?

[ThatFancyExpert]

I’ve noticed that people are weird about admitting they like money. We all need it and life is easier when you have plenty of it. I like earning it, saving it, and spending it on things that make my life better. But when I say that out loud, people act like I’m materialistic or shallow.

Is it really so bad to just openly enjoy money and what it can do? Or do most people secretly feel the same but just won’t admit it?

It's strange when you realise that "money" is a totally made up concept.

ive never met anywho doesn’t like money, or denies liking it. Everyone I know is skint though so make of that what you will.

to me I love money for the freedom it can give you, not necessarily the “things”. If you can work where you want because salary isn’t an issue, or better still not at all, then it would make such a difference to people’s lives. Better food, better health, better relationships with family, the roof over your head paid for.

I’ll never have money though 😂

Anyone who claims to have no interest in money is either very eccentric or privately wealthy. Most rational people know having more money will make your life easier (even if it doesn’t actively improve it).

But some people really fetishize it and it’s never enough.

Knowing when you have sufficient money that making a load more isn’t worth the trade off is an important life skill.
