Podcast Manuscript: The richest person is the one who deserves the most friends. Wealth is a matter of the heart and not of the pocket. It is not that which others do for us that makes us possessors of great wealth, but that which we do for others. All true riches are self made. Only when the hand and the heart are put into one’s work does it yield a lasting worth. In the final true analysis, the picture forever belongs to the painter who paints it; the poem to the poet who writes it; the loaf of bread to the worker who earns it. Wealth may acquire these things but it cannot own them.
