On Profit

According to writer Volker G. Fremuth, there are four kinds of people in the world when it comes to profit.

1. Those who want to profit off others without changing anything. 

2. Those who want to profit off others and would try to improve the world in so doing, and

3. Those who want to profit off of others and are willing to destroy the world to do so. 

 Finally, the fourth group are "those who don’t care to profit off others and are the inevitable victims of the other three".


“The trick", he says, "is to know which one of these people you are.”
