61--------The love of money is the root of all evil
Greed will lead a person into many other evils such as cheating, oppression and violence.
(one also hears, money is the root of all evil, which places the blame more on money than on greed.)
62---------A fool and his money are soon parted
Folly will always show up in the way a fool handles money. Wise people are the ones smart
enough to guard money once they have it.
63--------It isn't whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game
Playing well and fairly is more important than succeeding. This saying is sometimes used to console
someone who has lost a game. The ideas is that in spite of losing, one may still feel like a success if
one has played as well as possible.
64--------Money can't buy happiness
There are some things money just can't buy. This reminds people that money is not an ultimate value
although it often is treated as one. The saying may be used as a comment when a wealthy but lonely and
wretched person commits suicide.
65--------Nice guys finish last
Success is valued more highly than kindness and politeness. If unkindness and impooliteness
contribute to one's success, they are sometimes excused as \or \it takes.\
This is more often applied to men than woman.
66--------The one who dies with the most toys wins
This recent, cynical saying makes fun of three common American desires--
competing, accumulating property, and having fun.
67--------Just do it
This proverb is actually a recently invented advertising slogan for the Nike Shoe company.
It may also be the best three-word summary of American cultural values. It means, \being
indecisive, Don't bother consulting a lot of people. Don't waste much times on planning. Just do it
and do it now.
68---------You only go around once in life
Enjoy life, do what you want to do, experience everything you can.
69--------Put your money where your mouth is
Get serious about what you are saying. When you have spoken in favor of something,
prove that you mean it by risking some money on it in a bet or an investment
70---------The best defense is a good offense
Be pro-active and goal-oriented, not timid or conservative.
Aim to conquer, not merely to protect yourself.
71--------The road to hell is paved with good intentions
Like talking, intending is not doing. Actions matter far more than intentions.
Actions determine where a person ends up.
72---------Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today
Doing is better than waiting. If you wait, you might lose your opportunity
73--------Action speak louder than words
To know people's hearts, pay more attention to what they do than what
they say.
74---------Idle hands are the devil's workshop
When people have nothing constructive to do, they get into mischief. The child who is bored
may pick up a crayon and color on the wall, something that would not happen if the child were
happily occupied in some other activity.
75--------You've got to take the bull by the horns
Grab directly and fearlessly for the toughnest part of a problem.
Don't look for an easy way out.
76--------Money doesn't grow on trees
You have to work for things. Success does not come on its own.

If you have received something without working for it, it may soon be gone.
You will not be as careful with it as you will be with something you earned.
78---------Too many cooks spoil the broth
Individual action or action by the smallest group possible is better than consulting
a lot of people. Too much consultation will waste time and create problems.
79---------Stand on your own two feet
Grow up; act like an adult. Don't ask me to do something for you. This may be said to a
young or immature person who depends too much on others. It is like a cow kicking a grown
calf that wants to suckle.
80-------If you want something done right, do it yourself
This discourages people from trusting anyone except themselves.
It maybe said to someone who ask another person to do a job for
him/her and then complains about it was done.
