This is a very sad way of looking at things. No one gets to be the wealthiest person in the world because they are chasing wealth. You get there because you're chasing purpose. In Elon Musks case the purpose is advancing man beyond earth. Wealth is the collected reciprocation of value you provide to others. And I don't know anyone who hires another person because they wont to exert power over them. Most people hire others to further their personal mission. That's my experience anyway.
No I'm not saying everyone who hires someone does it to exert power, I just gave that as an example to drive home my point.. I guess it was a very bad example, my bad.
About chasing wealth, I think you might be right about that too..
Thanks for the comment 🙂
