14. Please describe your reactions/ideas to the following quote: "He does not possess wealth, it possesses him."
The way I understand this quote is that, the man doesn't make the money, but the money makes the man. If it is a case like this, someone who lives like this clearly doesn't really appreciate things they receive. Some people work extremely hard just to live day to day, and they cherish everything they have, and others, not so much. On the other hand, some people take advantage of their wealth, and let it represent them. Some want to be known as "rich" because people look up to them or idolize them, and they like that feeling. Certain people would give anything to have half of what millionaires have or even just the slightest bit of money period.
