Mo' Money

My nephew, Jonathan, told me something pretty profound yesterday. We were having a conversation about how money shouldn't be the motivation for one's career choice. He was telling that Eminem said, "More money just makes you more of who you were before you had it". So if you were a jerk before, you'd be an even bigger jerk, if you were generous and giving, you'd be more generous and giving, etc. So Jonathan was saying how he wants to work on his character now, so that whenever he becomes successful, the money will be positively enhancing.
