I never said that shouldn't happen. We were talking, like, massive wealth, not merely having enough money to send your kids to great schools. There are certain prerequisites, you need a certain amount of money to provide yourself and your family with a quality life, but that only amounts to so much. Everything on top? Should go towards actually leaving a mark on this planet.
Do you recognize that you are being dogmatic and one-sided about this? Everything on top "should" go to wherever the hell you want it to go to. And you define leaving a mark on the planet as by having helped the common man. Again, a narrow definition.
...no, it's not narrow at all. There are countless ways to achieve that.
Countless ways to help the common man, or countless ways to leave your mark on this planet? I agree with both, but you were implying the latter could be achieved only through the former, which I disagree with.
