   One of the most common misquoted phrases, too. It's actually "The love of money is the root of all evil."

   Shirt is still cool.

   Indeed.

   So the $ should be preceded by <3

   Actually, it's not clear which nth root (positive, negative) they're referring to here. It's possible that having negative money equates to imaginary evil... that's probably best left to another shirt entirely.

   Shouldn't the t-shirt be free.

   That's a bit of a stretch on the use of the word "root".

   @Tracy: Thank you! This is a pet peeve of mine! I think it gives people the wrong idea when they hear the incorrect saying. Money is fine if used properly. It goes from not making any sense when incorrect to a profound truth when properly quoted.

   Hmm...this seems a little sneaky and stinky to me.

   Is it a money shill or is it a Neato-Blurb?

   Who can tell?

   I'm sure hope this doesn't become a trend.

   @Phos - we regularly feature stuff from the Neatorama Shop on the blog. They're always clearly marked as such.

    The actual saying is:

    "The LOVE of money is the root of all evil"

    Tracie and Moon (and C.A.) - I am glad you all remember the correct quote.
