It’s true. Money has no character, no personality, no values. Its
actions only reflect the desires of its owner. Money can build great
hospitals and schools, or it can be gambled away or squandered on
meaningless possessions. Money may build museums to house beautiful
works of art, it may construct beautiful houses of worship or it may be
used to create instruments of war and destruction.
As you build your personal wealth, make sure you build your character by
setting aside a portion of your income to help others. Choose a church,
a charity, or a cause that you can enthusiastically support. Then give
of your money and your time in support of that cause. The primary
beneficiary of such noble actions is always the one who gives, not the
one who receives.
