It is if you delete "all" from your quest.

Money is faith in the issuing goverment.

And the root of all evil.

There must be some middle ground, I am hoping.

And the root of all evil.

Nay, nay, puppy dog. It is the LOVE of money that is the root of all evil.

You are going to learn about money (maybe even "all") regardless of where you are. The knowledge you pick up here will, put simply, be more valuable... likely "most."

One fact to keep in mind is that your savings are a large part of your success, especially in the early years. Find the right balance for how much risk you're willing to take in search of better returns over the long haul.

Directions specific to your question:
Go to "Fire and Money" forum
Click on 2020 Performance YTD.
You will learn about the history of money, how to Retire Early and how to rethink options (possibly go back to work, but rarely an option here).

And the root of all evil.

That is not the entire quote. Money is inert
Timothy 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil

There was a time I studied the Bible. There are actually 7 definitions of love in the Greek language. When translated to English, we picked the one size fits all definition of love. So pick one for your relationship with money.
