Money can buy you everything that can be controlled. It can't buy you good luck, perfect health, or immortality, nor can it bring your loved ones back from their graves in the cold, hard earth. Short of that, there is little money can't provide you - up to and including happiness. However, it is almost impossible to find happiness without money.
Money is not evil - not even a representation of it or a focus for it. The central theme is desire, and the only thing that separates evil from practical is the cost. Whether the desire is for a person, a thing, or some feeling or intangible thing, it's what we are willing to pay for it that determines whether we are 'evil' or not.
