[QUOTE=slade]No its the wisest thing to do.....too many people get money and spend it on junk and become a new person that their not. Money doesn't buy freedom, it rents it..then when you cant pay for it, your thrown back out into the streets.

"Enough" (subjective, but that was the premisse of the question in this thread) money does infact buy economical freedom with which you can get the things you want when you want them, which is important to some, and not to others. It would be to me anyways, more so then some alturistic notion of being able to cure world hunger and bring about world peace.
It would mean that if I wanted that new hardware for my computer(s) - I'd buy it. If I wanted a new car - I'd buy it. If I wanted to travel to someplace - I'd do it. That is a form of freedom, because it enables you to do things you want, and not what other factors want.
And yes, I've heard the cliche of "becomes new persons" .... heck we become new persons with each passing day, it's called development. Some apparently don't take to money well - I've never met anybody, so I wouldn't know - but I'd think it is more personality then anything else. At least I've not seen any studies showing "people change with money"....
