Wealth vs Power
- What's funny?
- His wish list - "I'd want a closet full of designer dresses and some elegant jewelry to go with them. Put the closet in a really nice house and put the house someplace where I'd be important..."
- I detect a shift from money to power.
- Maybe so. But what's the difference, really?
- Money buy things. Power makes things happen. If you ever have a choice, take the power.
One of my favorite quotes.
Lately I come to believe that majority of wealthy people only have money.
If you receive investment from a wealthy man - don't EVER allow him to make decisions. You will regret the moment you trusted him with control for a very long time.

The catch is that power & money are so close intertwined that we forget they aren't the same. And sometimes make grave mistakes because of it.
