What a poor life I have had if I am only remembered for the amount of money I made.

About This Quote

A person has a poor life if they are only remembered for the amount of money they made in their life. This sad statement is usually said by people with wealthy parents. It is also said by politicians to justify their multi-million dollar salaries. The person who says this does not realize how much more important their life was. No one will remember how much money they made, but they will remember what they did with that money and how it helped others.
