    That is not true. Normally is based in how you obtained that money. And how richer you are, probably you obtained that in no clean circunstances. There was some evil behind, for example exploting workers or others.

    A good person, normally won't become rich, because at first at all he never would be able to do what I've said above.

    I am not Marxist. I am anarchist close to Kropotkin or Bakunin(though less to this last) :-D

    In a cronyist capitalism, having lots of money is often an indicator of "questionable character."

    What about motherhood? Doesn't pay well. Is it stupid for mothers to put their children and families ahead of their financial principles?
