“Wealth does not bring about excellence, but excellence makes wealth and everything else good for men.”
— Aristotle Onassis
Simplified Meaning:
Having money doesn't automatically make a person great. Instead, when someone is very good at what they do and works hard, this can lead to making money. Think of a talented musician. If the musician practices every day and becomes excellent at playing their instrument, people will pay money to see them perform. The musician's skill leads to wealth, not the other way around. Also, being excellent in something you do well can make other parts of life better. For example, a chef who cooks amazing food will make people happy and healthy, which can lead to a successful restaurant. Therefore, focusing on being the best you can at your work or talents brings success and improves everything around you. So, it's not about chasing wealth, but about striving to be excellent in your endeavors.
