About This Quote
I am a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it. – Thomas Jefferson If you have been around people who have a lot of money, then you know that they are not always good company. They do not have any standard but cash value. They don’t believe in friendship or family.
They buy things because they want them and not because they need them. Money-makers are tiresome company as they have no standard but cash value.
