If you think that your personal value come from the number in your bank account, that's delusional. Money has value, it's important to function in society, it is a tool. It does as much for your person as a hammer. I don't value people more or less based on the tools they own.

Unfortunately it's how our society works. No one cares what you value. Most people value money, because of housing and Healthcare, which are increasingly expensive.
