Good insight. Power in and of itself doesn't corrupt. Guns don't kill people, people with guns kill people. Money isn't evil, the love of money is evil.
People just gotta control themselves.
Had a friend who became a self-made multi-millionaire. He remained humble, and we would often spend time together, dutch-treat. It just made things more comfortable for the both of us. Anyway, I asked him about money and how it affected his life. I found his answer simple, yet profound.
"Money is an amplifier", he said. "If you are by nature, kind and generous, this will be amplified; if you are cruel and greedy, that too will be amplified". As I have grown older, I have found those words to be remarkably accurate.
