Money money money... it's not funny

So, we all know that money makes the world go round, and we all know that those who don't have money are therefore on the back foot.

I've never quite understood the concept if I'm honest, money quite clearly makes a lot of people spend their lives doing things they hate for people they don't like just in order to survive.  Is it just me or is that majorly screwed up? 

Life is fleeting, and yet mankind has come up with a way to ensure that a large chunk of life is spent working in order to pay your bills.  Now we're supposed to be the most super-duper advanced life-form in the whole known universe... so why are we so bloody stupid? 

Animals don't worry about money, they forage, hunt, scavenge, etc for food, they make their homes out of twigs, caves, or burrows... in effect they do what they want to do.  Yet here we are, the pinnacle of evolution, with such an idiotic concept.

Right now I know someone who's selling off stuff to pay bills, and someone who is looking at spending best part of 3 hours a day travelling to and from work... and that's not making anyone happy.  So why dear reader, does man always look to make himself miserable?
