Money isn't important.

People are more motivated by a lack of money.

Hardly. People are more motivated by the potential of having even more than they already do.

By your reasoning, Bill Gates must be the most unmotivated guy out there when it comes to getting even richer.

those who say that money is not important are hypocrites!!

Money means nothing. The things you can do with it, however, do mean quite a bit.

Still, the only thing that really matters is happiness, and unlike what many people seem to believe, more money does not equal more happiness. Some of the happier times in my life, I had no money at all... right now I have plenty, but I'd give all of it up for the happiness I had then.

Money might not equal happiness, but it surely does make misery easier to bear...

Money is a tool...and a very useful one.

And, while you can't buy health....you might stave off death if you have enough money to buy the best care.

And, maybe people will only like you for your money..but you can find those who have more money than you do who don't care about your money.

I'll take the money.

By your reasoning people wouldn't want to spend their money. They'd rather horde it so as to always have "more" of it.

As for Bill Gates, I'm not inside his head so I really can't comment on what motivates him and what doesn't. Money isn't the only motivator, and at his level I expect power is just as much if not more of a lure than money.

Another factor to consider since you brought up Bill Gates is diminising returns. If you were to offer $1000 to Bill Gates and someone earning minimum wage, in exchange for a service of some sort, the person earning minimum would likely go to much greater lengths to earn the money than Bill Gates would.
