why do people fight over money when money is really nothing but paper, or metal?

why, what would you do if and when you needed money? how would you obtain money for yourself? People feel desparate, when they have little, they have not learned to be satisfied, what do you think is missing in their lives,that they fight over and for money,

Hi, for some reason money is like a disease everyone wants but they don't realize the harm it causes. Money is power for most people. Most people who get a good education more easily find good jobs with a better pay. However, sometimes a person without a high education can also get a good job. People are misconceived into thinking that money is everything when its not. Money doesn't lead to happiness. On the contrary, happiness is being happy with what you have not matter how much that is.

obviously with the advancing technology systems used to activate any and almost ALL transactions today, paper money will be non-existent very soon!  i mean, how many people do you know that actually write out and use a paper check from their checkbook to make a purchase nowadays?    besides, communism is a necessary step to the demise of our humanity and society!

Money makes the world go around. If it wasn't for money, the place we call home would probably be 50% better then what we live in today. As for myself, I am a soldier of the U.S. army national guard. IV been to Iraq and back and seen how terrible it was over there. And the one reason that place looks like it does is because of lack of...you guessed it. MONEY. I live in an apartment right now with no furniture, nor food, TV, ect. I sleep on an air mattress and I have my laptop with wireless. I am waiting on my re-sign up bonus in a week or 2 to buy the things I need to get ahead again. Couch, TV, phone, ect. and while I sit here with no money yet, I wonder myself "what the hell do all these people really do with their money, all these rich people who just blow it all away because they can" they don’t think about the people who really need it and would put it to good use. Like I said before, i am a soldier of America, and most soldiers who sign up for the army don’t have money so they see it as a way out, a way to get ahead. And they go off and fight a war for people, allot of people, who couldn't give a care in the world. Don’t get me wrong there are also allot of those who really support us troops. But if you think about it, it’s the poor fighting the poor. Simply put. As for me, I don’t really know what people do with their money. But I know he who has a lot will become greedy, and what he already has, he will not be satisfied with. It’s a shame that nowadays it seems you have to have money just to have friends, a love, ect. When I was in school I never had any friends because I was considered low class or poor because my mom didn’t have a job and could buy the things I needed or wanted. Money is everything nowadays. And if you have enough of it, heh, you'd almost be able to play god, you could get away with murder it you had enough money. The world is headed in the wrong direction, and it was headed there ever before it came to be. That’s the way I see it!

The kind of things I want or need to make my life better are things you cannot buy with money. Actually it's things that, if you could buy, they'd become worthless immediately. For example, you cannot buy love, or a person's friendship. Because if it's bought, they're no use. The material things I could pay for, I'm not really crazy about. I mean I could use a new house. But I'll manage with this one, and I don't really need it so desperately I'd pay any price for it.

I don't justify it, but the one most common that I see going against is "Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth."  Since most of us want money and material items, this one is the easiest to fall on the wayside with... there are tons of excuses.. "I need this because, I need more money..." blah blah.  But in no way do I ignore commands or attempt to justify my actions if they are against them.  I ask for forgiveness if I find myself in that spot and fix the situation.  Good question.

Many people equate money with happiness, even though test after test in psychology shows that lottery winners are some of the most depressed people on earth. \nIf you think people want your money, what have you been doing with your money that would make them want it? Do you buy things for friends and family? Are you flamboyant in any way with your money? Do you use your money as a way of getting approval from others? \nMoney helps people get things, money may not be happiness, but it is power. A person who has a lot of money has access to things that people without money don't have: security, property, perks. \nIt's not easy for some people to get money, and even if they have a good job, it's often never going to get them enough to be on par with Donald Trump. \nCoveting money is a popular American pastime, and watching "Survivor" should show you how crazy and cutthroat people are willing to get in order to have a shot at winning a million. \nAnyway, I don't know why everybody wants your money, but I make enough to be happy, so I don't want it, and the above insights are free, I won't charge you. Have fun rollin' in it! $$$$$$$$

Life is mean to people that don't have also, or in other terms "poor people", because people don't understand things they don't know. People are all for themselves these days. They are all about bettering themselves, and their family. They don't care about anyone else, and you are a "poor person", then you can't do anything for them so they don't care about you, therefore run over you. Since America is based on money, and money only these days. If you have a lot of money you can do a lot of things. Why...... because America is based on money, which is a good thing for the people who have the money, but It's LIFE for the people who don't

I know this is probably stupid, but i worry about money all the time. As much as people don't want to admit it, money does make the world go round.Without money, you could loose many things because you couldnt afford to take care of it. I'm always worried about bills being paid or being able to buy my children what they need. I quess that just makes me human.

I think money is great when it comes to buying the essentials such as a home, and food, ect., but when it comes to material items I think we should learn to live without it. Some people try to buy other people's love or friendship...and that isn't right.

America fought almost entire world war 2 with paper money.And today on an average every American spent already the entire money of next budget with credit cards.And America`s deficit budget makes it necessary to break records in printing currency.The joke is that the money you do not have is not of much value due to inflation.Relax.

Because its not your money.  They believe the money belongs to whoever, "needs it", and not to the person that earned it.  They only way they can make sure it is distributed to their supporters to to first take it away from the people that actually earned it.

Maybe they don't have the cash, maybe they are worried about your safety, most likely they have some concern...you should be talking to them instead of Yahoo Answers....

This happened in Germany after a war. The currency they use used to be like equal to a dollar. And then the value went so low that a billion of them was worth a dollar. Then the value of money is worthless and everything is too expensive to buy. Then nobody can buy anything and the salesman have no customers so everyone does not have money.

Why are you people always so cheap?\n\nPeople have to make a living.  Stealing is a crime and getting things that are supposed to be purchase is a crime.

Because that would make everyone in the world more greedy.  If everything was free, people would think there was no problems, but there would be.  It's true when people say money makes the world go 'round, because there would be no love for other people.  People would just care about the free stuff, not each other and their health.  Does that answer your question?
