The Root Of Evil

There is a saying that "money is the root of all evil". Closer to the truth is what Mark Twain said "Not having money is the root of all evil".

Not having money often causes serious Shalom Bayis problems, problems with children, stress, anxiety, irritability, sleeplessness and many other problems. Chazal [Eiruvin 41] say that poverty makes one crazy and sinful - מעבירה את האדם על דעתו ועל דעת קונו. 

So earn lots of money and use it for the good things.
