A Simple Plan

Obviously, the "simply plan" turns out to be much more than "simple".
However, after watching this movie, my final decision is this:
money is a plague that ruins lives.
Money stimulates greed, which can be defined as: an excessive desire to acquire or possess more than what one needs or deserves, especially with respect to material wealth (dictionary.com)
Some say that greed is part of human nature. Isn't it true that we always strive to achieve more? We send our children off to college and hope that they will come out with an education that will allow them never to have to worry about money. The question is, will we ever actually stop worrying about money even when we already have enough to live well on?
We see how Sara tells Hank that she would return the money if she was ever in Hank's described situation, but this was before Hank spills the $4 million in front of her eyes. Its amazing how suddenly, all thoughts of returning the money is thrown out the window and the creepiest smirk/laugh escapes from her mouth. Jacob, Lou, and Hank too (Hank who has everything a guy could have in life: a beautiful wife, a child, a good job, a respectable reputation, and good friends/neighbors) are all blinded and overcome by greed. Of course, at first, they think twice before taking all the money, but overabundance of the money soon overtakes them.
