No money makes life pretty tough! My husband spent 9 of the last 12 months laid off of work, but we get by and we love each other. I would say that you appreciate life more when you don't have money than if you are loaded!
So I would have to say yes, it is pretty close to the root of evil, look at the horrible things people will do to one another and themselves for money!

Technically, "love of money is the root of all evil".
Money is not evil. People's desire to gain money, or power, or some other form of gain, and not stopping to consider the consequences of their actions is the root of the vast majority of evil.

it's the love of money that is the root of all evil. Money itself is neutral

An obsession with anything is unhealthy. Money is just one example. It's your state of mind that makes you happy or unhappy. It's not how much money you have. It's what you think is most important in life.

I think money has nothing to do with evil...It all depends o how you know to enjoy and spend the money

Greed and human stupidity are the root of all evil.

Money? I think the lucky ones of us come to realize wealth has nothing to do with money.
