thats true he does...he also donates millions of dollars worth of computers to school every year...but i am sure it has alot to do with the tax deductions then his good will....Bill Gates is by far one of the most intrigueing business men of all time, apart from Sam Walton and Warren Buffet, but Bill Gates is very devious with money....

hehehe....i can see how money can be considered so. i mean, people are tired, weak, and stressed from working so much (esp here in the U.S. and even Japan) just to make a good living. this exhaustion then reflects on the way one treats their families and loved ones, so i could def see what melissa means. i think everything is this world should be free!! haha wouldnt that be nice....

Best post in the thread, IMO...

By the way, it's "evil" not "problems" as the saying goes.

Margs, we all know that it's the shopaholic women that are the problem, not the men who are usually tightwads...

Bill gates has run dozens of small companies into the ground... not to mention buying software at stupidly low prices from desperate people, i.e. students or even incarcerated criminals... read about the story of "Cap'n Crunch".

Money is the scapegoat people like to use to hide the fact that true blame falls upon human nature.

Money is simply one of the manifestations of our nature.

everyone knows stupid people are the root of all problems.

actually emotions are the root of all evil

actually women are the root of all problems. If women werent the way they were, only a couple of things would have been invented.

1) Men would still live in caves. Building shit is hard work, why would we need anything else.

2) Fire would be invented to keep us warm in our caves.

3) Beer, for obvious reasons.

4) Blunt Trauma weapons, such as clubs, to hit shit with. Possibly sling throwers.

Basically itd be a whole bunch of dudes chillin around a fire drinkin beer, and occasionally gettin a mob and chasing some deer or something. Wed be drunk and probably wouldnt get it, which is why we would be vegetarians, and live longer than we do now.

Plus we would still BE IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN AND LIVING FOREVER AND NOT HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT MONEY AND CRAP TODAY

edit** as Dave Chapelle said "If men could fuck and live in a cardboard box..."

one of the best things I've done for myself was when I stopped spending money for about 3 months.. its a great way to stop living paycheck to paycheck.. i didnt go out - i just lived poor for a few months and built up a "pillow" of money to fall back on if shit hit the fan..

ah, i was reading your post and i was like "please mention that, please mention that" hehe.

actually woman are the root all evil
Proof:

First we state that girls require time and money.
Girls = Time * Money
And as we all know, "time is money."
Time = Money
Therefore:
Girls = Money * Money = (Money)^2
And, because "money is the root of all evil":
Money = sqrt(evil)
Therefore
Girls = (sqrt(evil))^2
And we are forced to conclude that
Girls = evil

Come to my city if you wanna see some pissed off people. My city's budget has reached empty and they're looking for everything they can do to fix it. Recently 30 police officers were fired and an entire police station closed. Any of the city funded annual activities have been cut among many other things.

Now the city is planning on merging the suburbs with the city to increase funding. I really don't hope a disaster hits here either cause we'd be fucked! The blood bank has a shortage of blood, the city is out of money and the Red Cross just announced that their funding is very low. But hey, we got 2 new stadiums for football and baseball plus a new convention center that cost millions of dollars.

Fuck rebuilding Iraq, this country needs to be focused on!

Ding. Also it has to do with being selfish, we only care about ourselves and that's it, who gives a fuck about some poor person in another country you don't even know? People want to focus on their own lives and maintain their own standard of living and NOT have to give up ANY shred of the quality of life they have here. If it were up to me this attitude would be fucking CHOKED to death... as it is a selfish one and no real benefit to the rest of humanity...

werd!

i think it all comes down to human nature, more specifically, ego...

Money has its annoyances indeed, that why I left such a shyte economy like South Africa and came to London, and now live more comfortably working in an internet cafe than I was as a computer programmer in SA.

Says alot about how shyte SA's economy is (thank you mom for being british and getting me an ancestral visa )

Humans are the root of all problems.

if it weren't for humans, the squirrels would be running the show

Money is not the root cause of all my problems, it is an effect. I caused my problems and thus caused my relative lack of moentary funds.

I got this off an email message:

____________________________________________________________________

Why you shouldn't study:

No Study = Fail ....................... ( I )

Study = No Fail ...................... ( II )

By Combining ( I ) & ( II ) :

=====> ( No Study + Study ) = ( No Fail + Fail )

By Taking ( Study ) as a common factor in the left hand side
And Taking ( Fail ) as a common factor in the right hand side

=====> Study ( No + 1) = Fail (No + 1 )

By Dividing both sides by ( No + 1)

=====> Study = Fail
____________________________________________________________________

Now, to myself:
