The love of money is the root of all evil. To love money is for money to be the motivation, the essence or the reason for work. To love money is to make getting money your focus in life. Money is never to be pursued. You don't work for it. You work to fulfill your purpose for living, to produce value, to create solutions for problems, to meet needs and to maximize yourself. Money comes as result of fulfilling those objectives and not because it is what is being targeted.
