Money worship is a type of money disorder. The core driver of this behaviour is the belief that having more money will lead to greater happiness.[1] Individuals with this disorder are obsessed with the idea that obtaining more money is necessary to make progress in life[2] and, at the same time, convinced that they will never have enough money to fulfil their needs or desires.[3] Younger, single and low-net worth individuals are more likely to engage in this behaviour,[4] which has also been linked to a higher probability of carrying over credit card debt from month to month.
