[导语]金钱用对了就是福气。其他好事也是如此。如果使用得当，它们会祝福；如果被滥用，它们会诅咒。许多人似乎不知道钱是用来干什么的。
Money is a blessing when it is used rightly. The same is true of all other good things. They bless if used well; they curse when abused. Many people do not seem to know what money is for. They want it above all things. But they want it to spend chiefly on themselves.
Some boys appear to think that money is to buy good clothes and foods, toys and amusements. Some also seem to think that money is to buy leisure with. They consider that the highest happiness is to live without work. But that is not at all what money is for. We should get the nearer truth than that.
Its value is in its use. A million gold dollars would have been worth no more than a million stones to Robinson Crusoe on his island home. There was nothing to buy, and therefore, no use for money. That is not what money is for.
The Bible says “the love of money is the root of all evil”. That is, money sought for its own sake is the cause of all sorts of evil—lying, stealing, cheating, robbery, and even murder. This is the best reason for avoiding the love of money.
