"The love of money is the root of all evil," the Bible tells us. Everyone desires to have money and lots of it. It influences human behavior because to have things that you want you have to have money to buy them. For example, if you want to buy a house you have to have money to put a down payment on it and then you have to gradually pay for it in monthly bills. If you don't have money to pay for the house, then the bank could foreclose on you and you could loose your house. Situations like greed is when the desire for money can be harmful.Being greedy shows that you only care about yourself and you can get in a lot of trouble depending on what you do. For example, gambling...enough said. When the desire seems normal or legitimate to me is when you take the money you earn, and instead of spending it on yourself, you donate it to a good cause like a local charity or church that is in need of it more than you are. You don't have to have a lot of money to have nice things.
