Good day great hive mind, I'll love to think that everyone is fine,happy and loved.
Money they say, is the root of all evil, and with no doubt, it brings happiness, betrayal and pain along with it. Most people tend to love money more than themselves and even the feelings of others.

So many friendships have broken because of money related issues. Money has a way of changing humans mentally and physically which I don't see as necessary but it's just bound to happen. In many occasions, people will lend money to others and time to pay back will always be a problem. A very quick advice to everyone, don't lend or give out any cash you can't afford to loose or you'll be needing sooner than later.
Have you ever noticed the sudden change that occurs in some persons when they become rich or wealthy? Most of them tend to see their old relationships and friends as not classy and outdated, some even go as far as changing their line id ( phone numbers) to stay away from people that used to love, play and share things with them.

I've always believed that understanding could solve every problem with anyone but money related issues? Lol , people have different mindset and want to play smart when it comes to money.
SHORT STORY ON THE LOVE FOR MONEY.
Trusting others with your money or giving them a chance to a certain point of accessibility is a very risky process that shouldn't be taken. This takes me back to an event that happened when I was still working at a bookshop.
Back them in the bookshop, I had a colleague who was very quiet and when I say quiet, she doesn't say anything except she what's something from you or to a customer. On a faithful day, we where in the shop when a police officer came in and said she's under arrest for stealing, fraud and scam. I didn't believe it was true untill she stood up and was pleading with them and that was how she was arrested.

I was later enlightened by the victim of her crime who was her roommate named grace, according to her, she met my colleague in the village and decided to bring her out of the rural area to the urban society. For 4 times, she noticed that money was always being transferred from her account to an account she couldn't verify even after going to the bank. She tried switching accounts too but it kept occuring and it drained her mentally and physically.
She decided to use her neighbors account to save up little money she got because of what has been happening only to find out that, the account name and number matched the account that has been scamming her and she arrested the lady but the lady was found innocent as it was her so called roommate and my colleague who told the lady that her cousin wants to send money to her and she'll need her account to send the money as she didn't have one.
And that was how my colleague was arrested and was asked to pay in total, the sum of 137,000 naira she stole from someone who loved, sheltered, found a job for you and fed you. And that's why she was arrested.
You can see how people are ready to betray and go to the next level just because of the love of money? Don't get me wrong, money can also bring people together and happy but most times, this is the outcome.
Thanks for reading to the end guys, I appreciate 😊❣️
