Extract from "Today Matters" by John Maxwell

Several years ago, James Patterson and Peter Kim published the results of a national survey on morals in The Day America Told The Truth. They shared some of the things people said they would do for money. Here are some of the things people said they would be willing to do for $10 million (along with the percentage of people who would do it). They would...

* Abandon their entire family (25 percent).
* Become prostitutes for one week or more (23 percent).
* Give up their American citizenship (16 percent).
* Leave their spouse (16 percent).
* Withhold testimony, letting a murderer go free (10 percent).
* Kill a stranger (7 percent).
* Put up their children for adoption (3 percent).

If those findings don't show that some people believe money will bring them happiness, nothing does!
