In the philosophy of money, this term, borrowed from Aristotelian philosophy, refers to the fact that money consists in itself: it does not itself have any compelling force to do anything. Money is neither good nor evil, but ethically neutral. The decisive factor is solely the choice a money owner makes with the means of payment in his power of disposal, the way he uses the purchasing power embodied in money. – This principle clearly rejects all (popular) insinuations according to which money – is the root of all human evils (root of all evil), deforms the personality (deforms the character) and leads into disaster (leads into desaster), – provides satisfaction and fulfillment of all human wishes (satisfies all humans wishes and leads to happiness), yes even – the money owner into happiness (bliss, understood here as absence of all evils and full possession of the good; absence of any evil and full possession of all what is good; this is a basic, a primal definition of Marcus Tullius Cicero who defined bliss in Tusculanarum Disputationum, liber V, cap. X, § 28) „…NEQUE ULLA ALIA HUIC VERBO, CUM BEATUM DICIMUS, SUBIECTA NOTIO EST NISI
SECRETIS MALIS OMNIBUS CUMULATA BONORUM COMPLEXIO“). – See omnipotence doctrine, equivalence principle, money abolition, money ethics, money faith, money philosophy, money arithmetic, money purpose, greed, mammonism, pantheism, monetary, thrift, symbol theory, ungoods, centralization, monetary.
