    a guy like me comes to a den of traders and hardcore money lovers

    and mentions greed being a problem as a common human condition

    and is told how he needs to go fix himself

  5. I wish I could be there.....

    I wish I could be there right when it happens. When your government cheque bounces and you realize everything you did or tried to do was for nothing.

    I wish I could see your face when you realize .....this crap is real and you and your family are in trouble.

    Left behind, by your washington masters, as they hide in luxurious underground

    You my poor fella, don't have a pass.

  7. People are not destroyed by money, but rather by their own human failings (arrogance, greed, etc.).

    As a constant reminder, I keep this Chinese proverb on the wall in my trading office: "Money is round and it rolls -- and it doesn't care who it rolls to."

  8. Hmm... If my memory serve me correctly, Cinderella Lauper also sang a song called "Money Changes Everything".

  9. True.

    And the Bible says that the LOVE of money is the root of all kinds of evil (Timothy 6:10), not money (or gold) itself.

  10. Dang another Chinese proverb. Why do they have a ton of proverbs?

    I don't believe that proverb is correct and I ain't got time to write a dissertation on why it's not correct.
