Title: Is there anything more powerful than money?
Post by: titsmcgee123 on August 02, 2013, 03:30 am
Im curious as to what you guys think. Is there really anything more powerful than money? Personally, I don't believe so. To elaborate, I'd like to say that it is my personal belief that knowledge is the most powerful thing on this planet; however, I am not naive and realize that most people only care about money, and it's hard to be knowledgeable without access to cold hard cash. I don't think there isn't a thing on this planet that you can't buy. I think its a shame that so many people will do literally anything to get some cash, but thats just the way the world works I suppose

Love?

I'd argue that there is no such thing as love. IMO it is just an idea the media makes profit off of

the only thing more powerful than money is the bankers controlling it! i vote we should do away with all this bullshit and go back to a bartering system. sure there will be violence as groups form to survive but i think that would be better than this hell we live in today.
I ate some shrooms from MM earlier.

I think the answer is : People

Edit: People can chose to live  without money . But money cant exist without people.
alone we are nothing but together we are legion

I agree 100% But the barter system would be just as bad as fiat currency, as some people don't have anything to barter with.
I have a feeling though that in about 5-10 years fiat currency will be done away with and crypto-currency will be the way of the future.

^^^^ Gravity is a very weak force (I'm beating the entire earth just by standing straight up). The strong nuclear force would be a better answer.

yes, there is something more powerful than money.

Why do men chase after money? Because they want to gain the attraction of females. The more money a man has, the hotter the woman he can get.

SEX is more powerful than money. SEX is the root cause of our material attachment. Sex and women.

If not for women, men wouldn't care about money.

Women are the root cause of all of this insanity of the modern society, because women are biologically programmed to look for the man with the largest amount of resources, aka money.

Women truly are the embodiment of maya, the illusion.

But besides pussy, the only thing that comes to mind is a combined consciousness striving for the same goal.

Ive heard stories of famouus people with an entourage and they would play mind games with their followers, getting them to think/do whatever they wanted. There are people very skilled at this. All the money in the world probably wouldnt get a normal person to kill sombody. Charlles Manson got his followers to do what he wanted and he had very little wealth.

Not true at all, if you offered enough cash I'm sure many people would take a life. We are still the same savages we were 10,000 years ago, but now we have technology.

Almost everybody has responded tongue in cheek. But what do you mena by powerful? You mean that it gives you power, as in getting stuff or power over others?
