Do most business people are motivated by desire of money only, as the statement contends? Admittedly, some businessmen may be snobbish and care about nothing but money, however, in my point of view there are also a large number of people who are kind, charitable and put self-fulfillment in the first place.
The claim may sounds reasonable in some aspect to a large extent. Take some social problems happened the food industry for an example, probably we are quite familiar with the SANLU event several years ago. It is really bring to the milk powder market a great shock that the famous company in china produced the poisonous milk powder for many years. Many Chinese infants had shown the symptoms of malnutrition and some of them even became physiologically malformed. There is no doubt that this case many businessmen care only money and ignored even the basic social responsibility. That is do harm to others people’s right to live a health and happy life.
Besides, there are also some famous businessmen who are adorable. One of them , Li Ka-shing who is the richest Chinese businessman, also plays an important role in Chinese philanthropy. In wenchuan earthquake, he donated approximately 1 billion RMB to the wenchuan people. And of course, that is just one of his donations. Another famous entrepreneur is Chen Guangbiao, who is a 42-year-old and has pledged to give all his money to charity after death. But what matters the most is his real actions of helping others. He once said that it is his duties to help the weak and though the process of giving he actually gained much more which makes him feel self-satisfied. In all these cases, it is obviously that the true
motivation of making money is their adorable desires of helping other people, to undertake the due obligations. entrepreneur
What is more, actually, most people may be motivated by many desires rather than the exclusive money madness. For personal motivations, they may want to be famous or they want to enjoy the life much better than those poor people. On the other hand, they may choose to work hard to gain money just because of their responsibilities to take care their family. Therefore, it is too simply to say that
In a sum, businessman may be motivated merely by money in some really specific circumstances, but in most cases, they care much more about other things like charity, self-realization and social responsibility rather money only.
