Default Re: money or love

Not for love or money is an idiomatic expression.

Meaning:
Never, under no circumstances, as in I'd never visit them again, not for love or money. A version of this expression, which alludes to these two powerful persuasive forces, was recorded in a.d. 971.

Now, if you want to know which came first in human existence, my guess would be love.
