Even as children, though not working ourselves, we seek pocket money from our parents. Money also gives you power over others.

Broader and deeper knowledge has several advantages over material wealth, knowledge can be used to make money, but it cannot really be purchased with money. It is acquired by individual effort. The Mundaka Upanishad speaks of two kinds of knowledge; 'aparavidya' or lower knowledge the material world and 'para vidya' or higher knowledge, knowledge of the imperishable Being of God. One of the three main paths to be followed to attain liberation is Jananyoga, or quired by the study of the Vedas, rituals, and astrology for one's well being in union with God through knowledge. Krishna says in the Bhagwat Gita; "Realization and competence through spiritual practices are never lost."
