The catch: One does make a lot of money by being a good citizen.
- denton-scratch 5y agoNot true - one can make a lot of money while being a good citizen. Not a hoard of billions, but quite enough to live comfortably on. Yes - I slipped 'while' in as a substiutute for 'by'. Arguably the CEO of Oxfam is a 'good citizen' as part of his job, from which he earns millions. So he earns that 'by' being a good citizen. I meant that it's perfectly possible to have a well-paid job that doesn't involve exploiting people or the environment, or generally being a dick. FVSO 'well-paid'. If 'making a lot of money' means becoming a billionaire, well, I don't think cornering the world's wealth is consistent with being a good citizen.
