LOVE OF MONEY By Hassin Mohamoud Wesley Brummett Stefanie Roberts Emily Holden

Is money the root of all evil? The love of money causes all kinds of problems What type of problems are associated with money? The love of money is the most often cited source of unethical behavior.

Would more money be the key to your happiness? Do you control your money or does it control you? Are there some benefits for the love of money? Is the way we spend our money pleasing to our God How and when should we spend our money and why?

"Do you earn your money honestly?” "Where does your money come from?" All employers should treat their employees with fairness and justice. Don’t fill your pockets by cheating people out of what you owe them. When you owe someone something – pay what is due. Don’t be dishonest. Support the economy.

The Advantage “The money which a man posses is the instrument; that which we eagerly purse is the instrument of slavery” – Franklin D. Roosevelt Sometimes money can be the key to happiness Earning money honestly can motivate one to work harder

The Disadvantage The love of money leads to theft, corruption, and murder. Money is a major cause of unethical and evil acts. Temptations persuade us to follow our feelings and hearts at the moment and take action right away.

Temptations lead us to foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. Money motivates people to act unethically. They lead us into vulnerable desires and instant gratification. It can destroy people’s lives, careers, and future Provokes us to become selfish and ignore others’ needs, rights, and concerns. More powerful to those who want to take risks.

What causes people to sacrifice their integrity and act unethically? – Popularity – Greed – Power – Fame

CONCLUSION How should we earn our money? How should we save our money? How should we spend our money? YSms
