Everyone needs a certain amount of money. Beyond that, we pursue money because we know how to obtain it. We don't necessarily know how to obtain happiness.

If I have enough money to eat I'm good.

The importance of money flows from it being a link between the present and the future.

If God has allowed me to earn so much money, it is because He knows I give it all away.

Anybody who thinks money will make you happy, hasn't got money.
