A good example of this was the case of a man whose father had enormous wealth, so that he and his family could live for many generations quite comfortably; and this man was anxiously looking for some work. He came to ask me about it, and I said, "I am very surprised that you are looking for work, and want to do something. What are you looking for?" He said, "Some business, some industry, something to produce. That is the only real field of activity: where you can produce money." I said, "Is there no other field where you can produce something better than money? You have enough to live on." "But what will people say? I must do something", said the man, "and I can only think of doing that, and nothing else!"
