Depends on how you look at it.
If you consider Money to be a tool and not all powerful then yes, it is a bad thing.
If I work all day long, I want something for what I worked for.
Why would I work and work for nothing?
With that said, I would work and work to make sure that my house doesn't catch fire or be flooded, etc --- even though it might still happen. So why would I do it -- so I could sleep and stop worrying about it. Exactly like why I have insurance.
Most likely I and most people would be better off monetarily if I would take the same amount of money each paycheck and put it in a savings account, and then get catastrophic insurance policy. I don't though because 1) I am lazy 2) employer pays a portion of my plan 3) I like sleep.
