Penny Dollar: Can I borrow that book of yours How To Become A Millionaire?
Penny Wise: Sure. Here you are.
Penny Dollar: Thanks – but half the pages are missing.
Penny Wise: What’s the matter? Isn’t half a million enough for you?
Which is kind of what all the ‘how to make money’ and ‘how to get rich’ coaching programs are doing.
And that brings us to money, and with money, to the saying that “money is the root of all evil.” Which actually is an incomplete quote. “Money is the root of all evil” came from “The Love of Money is the root of all evil.” Some dumbass(es) somewhere along the line lost the first part and started a huge pointless debate on whether or not money is evil.
The original quote, in context: “For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” (1 Timothy 6:10) KJV (The King James Bible)
And if you had the patience to read this far in this short article, I will now tell you how to make money (online)!

2. Google 200 dollar bill (use google images).
3. Reproduce in Microsoft Paint.
4. Print.
5. Get rich! Retire at 14!
I was just reading a thread on a forum about money being evil. And most people don’t seem to know that the quote was incomplete… good post.
yes, its very true what you wrote that the quote is the love of money is the root of all evil. what i find very funny that the same people who say that money is the root of all evil and that they dont want much as its bad to want that get themselves all in the tizzle if even £1 which belongs to them is being threatened in any way.
yeah, yeah, so much on the topic money doesnt matter at all.
