I don't actually like money... I have no desire for it, and it ahs no hold over me... there are, however, several people I would hurt or kill for free.....

No, I don't think so. In this society money seems the be all, end all. Everyone who chooses to live in it NEEDS money, if only for food, clothing and shelter. But I wouldn't hurt a stranger for money just so I could have a few more luxuries.

ye, i wouldnt hurt a stranger for a few more luxuries, but no one said that you had to use the money for yourself.... so if someone payed me enough, ye i would hurt someone because of what i could use that money for.
no i definently would not do anything for money
i would not kill someone for $100 000 000, nor would i do it for $100 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000

tell me who you are if you add me
Few of you are willing to admit the dark and greedy side of your nature and that is not surprising really as most of us want to keep that side of us to ourselves.
I liked that statement that "Money is the root of all evil and power is the tree of all evil" ! ( How true ! ).
The facts are that as humans we are ALL capable of any of the most evil and barbaric acts if the conditions and the stimulus is there.
Maybe money is not always the stimulus that is needed to be a barbaric or inhumane human but I am sure if you thought about it you would be prepared to give up your own life or the life of an unimportant other in order to save something or someone that IS important to you.
Looking back in history it has been proven that if the right conditions and influence is there that the human animal is the most barbaric and evil creature to ever walk the face of this earth.
How they ever got the name of "Humanity" I don't know and will never know.

yes Paps . i agree with that . i know we are all capable of taking the lives of another IF the condition was right . i surely would if i had to in order to save the life of one who is important to me , like my daughters for an example .
I remember a saying I heard somewhere; "There is only a 2% difference in the DNA of a human and a chimpanzee. It is that 2% that gave us Einstein...and Jack the Ripper." Seems appropriate.

i would do a lot of things (less those who could lead me to death, i wouldnt enjoy the money if i died), but only things that could only damage myself, because no one has to pay for my "money-ambition". So i wouldnt kill/hurt people or do anything that could damage them.
I would do alot for it, but not anything, if the thing for example is making a complete ass of myself for a million dollars in front of my entire school, hell I would go ahead, then I can buy them all back in the end anyways
