In church today we learn about giving and really this thought came to mind, only to find it as the topic of discussion. Sorry for the late reply though, I m sure many have dropped their thought, I hope to go through them as well //
It depends on what wealth is to you and I, I found out that money is the least type of wealth and thats has been missed by many, money has wings and it will fly to where you send it or where there is solution. So if you can have Ideas, trust me, that's a higher realm of wealth than money, the most important type of wealth you want to have is people, human resources, which includes their time, energy, passion and even their money. Having this type of wealth is the gold standard, it cant be compared to being famous, because, really wealth includes influence and one can be famous and not influential like the example you had sited.
SO for me with this understanding of wealth, of course I ll be wealthy and thats gonna be the side I stand..
now let me peruse the other comments, thanks @samostically for this healthy topic you shared
Well said @jaydr. For instance, if for some unfortunate reasons a wealthy and influential man later goes broke, people in his network or those he influenced positively when he was rich, can team up to support and elevate him - I have witnessed this many times. People are still the greatest commodity anyone can have, just like you said.
Exactly, and you know what, they ll put him back up above them, because he has been able to maintain a structure with his stature.
Yeah, that's it.
