All are valid points.
But something is getting lost here in the phrasing of the central question.
The question is not whether it is possible to live without money -- we all agree it's not possible, and that in ALL circumstances it is better to have money than not.
The meaningful question is what is your
perspective of money?
I
am interested in money, but I say that anyone who believes that money is EVERYTHING is more limited in their ability to appreciate life than even the poorest person.
It should be possible to have an appreciation for money's practical value, and even to become very skilled in the acquisition of money, WITHOUT having to make a religion of it --
