MONEY IS A GOOD SERVANT BUT A BAD MASTER


          Money, it is said can buy almost everything in life, except happiness. And people who make money through fair means or foul often lose sight of basic human values. They become cruel, heartless, callous and corrupt. They feel that they are a law into themselves and that the others do not matter. They take to bad habits, vices and other evil ways because they allow money to become their master. They are slaves to their money. On the other hand, those who use their money for the good of society and mankind treat the money that they possess as their servant. Such people are often remembered for their humanitarian and philanthropic acts rather than those who spend all their money on themselves. If one becomes rich one should follow the example of the Rockefellers, the Tatas and the Birlas rather than those who have allowed money to become their master and spend all their resources on eating, drinking and being merry.
