"De los multimillonarios que he conocido, el dinero solo saca a relucir sus rasgos básicos. Si eran idiotas antes de tener dinero, simplemente son idiotas con mil millones de dólares."
Simplified meaning
Money doesn't change who a person is at their core. It simply amplifies their existing personality traits. For instance, imagine a person who is kind and generous by nature. If they become wealthy, they are likely to use their money to help others, donate to charities, or support good causes. On the other hand, if someone is rude and selfish before getting rich, money will give them more resources to act on those negative behaviors, like being even more inconsiderate or using their wealth to mistreat others. Essentially, wealth magnifies a person’s true character, whether good or bad. So, someone looking to understand themselves or others should focus on the underlying traits rather than the amount of money involved. Knowing this can help people strive to cultivate good qualities in themselves, regardless of their financial status.
