In his book, Mark Stevens refers to money and wealth as something that transcends its common use as a way to buy things. He describes it as being something that is similar to a religion, since wealth and money are considered by many to be one of the more important things in life. This is because of the way money is often connected to other things that are important in one’s life, such as independence, and our relationship with family and friends.
