I need a reality show: For the Love of Money!

I was at a graduation a couple weeks ago at USC and I heard somethin that kinda touched a nerve. It’s a “philosophy” that resonates at graduations and among the poor. It’s the whole “don’t chase after money” ideology. You know, speakers always say somethin along the lines of “don’t pursue money, pursue your heart.” or “don’t make money your focus in life.” While poor people tend to say shit like “the love of money is the root of all evil” (sometimes the word “love” is dropped) or “we don’t need money to make us happy.” I don’t know about you, but I’m tired of money gettin a bad rap. Everyone makes it seem like you don’t NEED money. Well good fuckin luck tryin to trade goat milk for bread at the supermarket. I love money. I wish money and I never parted. I wish I had more money. So much more that I could slap someone across the face with a stack (that’s $1,000 for you non Ebonics speakers). I think if someone wants to pursue money then let them! Don’t discourage them from tryin to be as rich as possible. For some people, money isn’t everything but for others it’s the only thing. I don’t have a wife or kids, so who the fuck else should I be in love with? I’ma love the one thing that loves me unconditionally as long as I have enough! That’s why there are so many old people that can’t retire. It’s because they didn’t love money enough to make so much that by the time they were 65 they could take it easy. Now look at them. Workin at Wal-Mart, tryin to make what? That’s right. MONEY! I don’t want anyone out there to be fooled. If you don’t care for money, then I suggest moving to an Amish village. And learn a trade or two before you go otherwise you’ll be the hungriest, nakedest Amish person for a couple months. They just don’t give away butter for free you know.
