I have been a little troubled by the messages on the forums, the focus on money not being evil... and the idea of abundance and manifesting.
but how much is enough? if there are spiritual laws for example Loa. Isnt trying to manifest money abusing that law for the use of the ego. Surely it is better to look to manifest love and compassion.. not sit at home trying to manifest $10000.
I maybe in a lonely naive club but money to me is not the best way to contribute. Before mother teresa and Ghandi there was this guy called Buddha and also a man called Jesus Christ who had different ideas about money than steve Pavlina..... somehow i cant imagine Buddha meditating to manifest $10000.
What ever happened to love being the greatest power?? thats all i plan on manifesting.

I agree with this to a point. For myself I am learning the best part is becoming the person I am becoming as I work on reaching that "next level." Is this bringing me boatloads of money? Not at the moment, but... I am also never without money, and opportunities are opening up for me that will bring me more money.
I think JUST focusing on the money can inhibit a person. What about focusing on the value you can offer society? If you truly give value, you will get money.
But, I also acknowledge there is not just one way to "be," so there is nothing "wrong" in desiring money just for money's sake.
