Thank you, you probably mean this as a compliment, but I don't think I am exceptional in that regard. I have met enough people for whom money isn't the prime motivator.
But Money is of course a motivation.Why?
To accumulate money and look at it? Spend time with it? Talk to it? :)
People don't want money, they usually want the things they think money will get them.
Money is important for someone who has a need of survivalSurvival in society...., you mean that, yes?
It is still possible to survive without money as well, but only if you are completely outside of society.
People who don't depend on society and society's rewards are harder to control, so that is one of the reasons why that sort of life is being transformed into more and more of a challenge, and made to look less and less appealing.
