My question to you is..

are you ready to be rich? Nearly everyone I know says that they want to be rich. But with your new wealth comes much new responsibility.

Ultimately your compensation is a direct representation of your work ethic. In other replies someone mentioned it depends on which region of the U.S. you reside in. "We" (and I know I am preaching now) need to remove ourselves from such a local mindset when it comes to wealth. For example, if Donald Trump moved to any state of the union, or any country in the world, he would still be the manager of an international business conglomerate which, in turn, would make him an extremely wealthy individual independent of his surroundings. (hmmmm??)

To directly answer your question, no amount of wealth (and notice I did not say money) is enough. I am a firm believer that to whom much is given, much is REQUIRED! If you've proven the ability to amass personal wealth I feel that it is your social duty to continue to utilize your skills for the benefit of your/our community.

Look around you, that's how they got where they are now. Why can't we do the same?
