I can't conceive of money being no object, it always has and as far as I can imagine, always will. The best thing about having an infinite amount of money would be that I could live unfettered. The best thing about not having any money is that I have to think about whether I would get any real use out of the things I buy.
I don't think love of money is the root of all evil, as there is also love of power and love of fame. That said, money can often buy power and probably fame to, so money can certainly be a tool for most evils.
