About This Quote
Power and money are both extremely important. However, there’s a difference between power and money. Power is the ability to make decisions and decisions are made by those who have power. These decisions can be good or bad.
However, money is a tool used to make decisions more easily. It allows people to decide more quickly, thereby making better decisions. In today’s world, power is becoming more of a hindrance than a help.
It creates too many rules and regulations that slow the world down and prevent progress from happening as quickly as possible. The world has gone from a place where making decisions was highly regarded to a place where everyone decides everything for themselves. Some people have become so lazy that they’ve lost the ability to make their own decisions, let alone those of others.
