"The World of Money" Paul Getty (rich, but also a slave to money)
violence of money
difficult person
Although he is the richest man, he can't enjoy the money. He thinks about how to save money, how to avoid taxes, and how to cut the price to the lowest price. Bargaining is power. It is simply a kind of ascetic, others look bright.
With his ability to appreciate art, he has insight into the evil of human nature, so he wants to find the beauty of human nature from the unchanging works of art
Money doesn't just mean money, it must mean something.
When grandson helped grandpa read and reply to the letter, he liked to do these things very much, and grandfather also said that he hoped to change and make a difference.
I have money, but I have no spare money.
He has a charitable trust. Although he has never donated money for charity, he can avoid taxes and the like. The disadvantage is that he cannot spend money casually, so he can only continue to expand and invest in art.
Getty: It's easy to be rich, but it's hard to be rich, because after you become rich, you have more choices, and desires also increase, but desires can devour and destroy people.
Facilitate deals, bribe relationships, and show that you can walk away at any time.
You can't trust the mouth of a rich man, even if he expresses his appreciation for you, or even presents it to you.
If you can't be a rich person with ability, or don't want to get any big benefits from them, don't get involved too much with rich people. Some people have no way to deal with rich people, so they will start with you, because you don't know what to do with them. The public of the truth thinks that you have gained a lot of benefits, but you are insignificant to the rich, because you cannot protect yourself if you don’t get the benefits. You can only put yourself in danger and become cannon fodder.
