Money is a drug

I am not so experienced about money and any of financial matters. So, I am interested to know more about how money works. And if it really works, how can we make it work for us. This makes me read some cool stuff about money which I like sharing it with everyone. This is also another excerpt from a book in which money is visualized as DRUG. And I found it so true. 

"Money is a drug. If you become addicted to drug, it is hard to break that addiction." 

Money is a drug because people are happy when they have money and upset and moody when they didn't. Just as heroin addicts get high when they inject the drug, they also get moody and violent when they don't have it. 

Once you get used to receiving it, that addiction keeps you attached to the way you got it. Put another way, if you receive money as an employee, then you get accustomed to that way of acquiring. If you get used to generating money by being self-employed, it is often difficult to break the attachment to earning money in that way. And if you get used to government handouts, that, too, is a hard pattern to break. 

This sentence sounded interesting of the lot. "It is more than breaking a habit. It is breaking an addiction." It needs lot of will power to break an addiction. If you are changing paths of money earning, then you should have the will power to quit the addiction and audacity to pursue new path of money making.
