Money Changes People


Money doesn't change people. It unmasks them, and when it does, rather than admit to it, they'll defend it to the point where they'll abandon and even sacrifice their own friends and family. So, when they ask me if I would want to be a millionaire and I answer, `no', they say, "Don't be ridiculous. Everybody wants to be a millionaire". So, I say to them, "When I tell you that I don't want to be like everybody, you'll call me weird or a loner or every possible rebuke that isolates me, yet your blindness has caused your failure to notice that I am much wealthier than everybody".
