Wealth follows influence.

About This Quote

The wealthy and influential often get away with doing things that others cannot. This isn't because they are rich or powerful, but because they have influence. They are seen as respectable, making what they say more credible. They are also able to find loopholes in the law that other people cannot get around.

If you are wealthy, influential, or both, you will have to be careful about how you spend your money. You will have to make sure that you are not breaking the law or doing something unethical in order to get your wealth or influence.
