Do you believe that making money is the only incentive that leads people to work hard and try to excel?

I guess. For those who make a living off of it. For those interning, or working as a summer job, or something like that, it is alot of times the fun-ness of the job.
My sister loves her job

For the most part, yes. Why would we work unless we needed the money? If we didn't need it, then we'd just sit on our asses all day... like I do.

i think it does... it gets people driven... but for some may not! i think it depends on the person.

yeah, i think so. i have a summer job, and i hate it. but i guess i'm really in it for the money.

most of it....
but i want a job that i love.. making coffee. mm starbucks!

more than half of the time money is the reason people work hard. But [sometimes] someone would work hard because the person they like is at work and want to see that person everyday.

yea i think it is
cuz i mean ppl want jobs to they can have money
and then they excel because they want to get paid more money

so yea makin money is the only incentive

well.... grades too lol

yes, but i will always strive for some job that i can enjoy

Depends. There are people that like to do wahat they tdo. Lets take for instance, charity workers.

yesss !!

i believe money pushes people and its somewhat of a reward, but i think what pushes people to work and exel is LIFE

I think, when it all comes down to it, yes Money does play a very important part. When I think about it, if someone is trying to work hard and such to impress another, they are only truly impressing another because that other person thinks making alot of money is impressing. get my drift?

MOVED TO INTERESTS > DEBATE

i believe money can drive people crazy!! money doesnt make me insane, i just get hyper!!

I agree with Christina.

money is one of many incentives that has people working hard n trying to excel...though its probably the biggest reason out of the rest....

students --> grades
volunteer workers --> love for others

when it comes to adults and jobs....yea, money. u cant live w/o money.

i think it works that way depending on who you are and what kind of job you have.

Money is one incentive, yes, but I don't think money is the only motivation. One exampl is that a person can work hard to earn someone's love...

yes unless their job is something they enjoy doing and they dont care whether they get money or not like charity and social workers

no

Yes, to make a living, unless their job is really really fun and they enjoy doing it or they're doing fun volunteer work etc. Well, it would be more convinient if people liked their jobs eh?

You need money; therefore, you need a job. Why not look for a job you enjoy? I think that's how it works.

i think so

money is a bonus when you doing something you always wanted to do...teacher,rockstar,accoutant

yeah i think so cuz if there wasn't money involved who do you think would actually work?
