eldad9, you would be the one to say that. I figured you must be very concerned with it because you always use the line in the quran that speaks against taking interest as proving your idea that the quran is not true. I don't want to get into this with you. The point of the question is to make ppl think. I refuse to explain it to you at this time. I want to see more answers. Thank you for participating.

Of course, but living in Morocco has actually helped me learn to curb it. Not by "living poor" mind you; a lot of my lifestyle here is the same as back home - but by being far away from certain comforts and things that I love makes me appreciate them so much more that I don't think I'll ever be so greedy as I used to.

Absolutely - I bought everything that opened and shut - I was very kind to myself - then I lost it all and was reduced to a camper van - I cruised, resettled, re-grouped and bought some stuff I NEEDED.
I'm happier now with not much than when I had it all.
Being retired on a better than average pension helps.

I think that's the driving force in Capitalism, no?
I would say there are a great number of people with these problems all at different varying degrees.

The best kind of wealth is to give up inordinate desires.

When I was very young, yes. I fell sucker for one of those get-rich-quick scams. Once.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on ME!

Material wealth is real; it's not a mirage.
