Truly, the love of money is a root of all sorts of evil. Whether rich or poor, if one puts faith in wealth, for it cannot satisfy nor truly provide peace of mind. Where one’s heart is, there their treasure will be also.

Not just money, but material things.

I know a few rich people who could walk away right now with their families, start over with nothing, and be joyful. I know many who could be given everything they desired, and it wouldn’t be enough.

As St. Paul said, we should learn to be content in all situations. That is very hard.
