Some people will. Most times people start out with firm moral values but the lure of more and more money entices them to do first maybe unethical things, then immoral, then illegal. Depends on how much money is involved and their personal background where people decide to sell out.

I doubt many people would kill for money. Most people would prefer to be in harmony with their neighbors. Having a lot of money and no friends may be a driving force for some people. The criminals especially but normal people who have food and shelter see no need to sell their souls for money. Most people want to be proud of themselves and have other people think well of them..

It depends on the conviction of the people. Greedy people could probably be a candidate. For the love of money is the root of all evil.

Most will answer theoretically-- the clearest and most tangible answer comes from Osama bin Laden, where a $25,000,000 purse has been placed on his head for years and no one has come forth. Deep loyalty, love for one's children, brother or spouse, one's deep conviction, etc., cannot be subverted by money. Many people die for causes and beliefs: few will give thier life for money alone (and yet many will prostitute their soul for it-- interesting issue), with the exception of the occasional sociopath.

Money is an important thing that required for life but it is not all. It is your character that makes you reliable, honest and prestigious. It is always said wealth is gone nothing is gone, health is some thing is gone, character is gone every thing is gone. Thus we should always maintain our character which is above money. One of my Senior said "taking bribe is eating excreta, and if you are taking bribe (eating excreta) you can imagine how have you fallen.

Perhaps not money, but as someone once pointed out to me, everyone has their price. It might not be money, but it might be the safety and welfare of a loved one, or something else.

a lot of people would. Some people obviously have no morals because they'll do really perverse things for money. Of course, if you're desperate, people do what they have to do.

Depends on your morals. I wouldn't do anything for money and I've been tested several times.
