I believe this is true if one is financially secured. One is forced to think of money over other things if the life of his loved ones is at stake. For example, if a family member is suffering from an illness and it demands a good sum of money for medication.Christina Rose wrote:I have never been one to put such importance on money. If we have enough to get by, we are good. Sure, having more is nice, but my priorities fall elsewhere, namely family.

This is great! We can beat the things we were not used to if a good sum of money is at stake.greenstripedgiraffe wrote:Not extreme things like murder, lying, stealing, sex - none of that is worth whatever money. But, I would do some things that I am not comfortable with for money. Like - I am NOT a runner. out of shape, overweight, etc., but if I were going to be paid handsomely for running a marathon or something, I'd definitely give it a go. Or, I'd run around in a cow suit for a day for cash. Depending on the cash amount and the task - I would do it. But, say the marathon example, it would have to be a few hundred dollars LOL

I agree with is, doing otherwise would be a betrayal of self which would make it hard for me to live with myself. So I'd rather not corrupt my morals or who I am as a person for money. It just doesn't seem worth it. Greed takes more than it gives.Amagine wrote:I would never go against my morals for money. There are many things that I would never do just simply for the sake of money.

I think dignity, humility and pride are important and there's no need to cheat unless you're forced to.
