The quote "he does not possess wealth, it possess him" makes me begin to wonder does money really control our actions. The I think about it the more the answer becomes yes. Most of the time what we do is ultimitaly done because we are foucus on what will get from it. In our soociety today we rarly do anything for the pure satisfaction of doing it anymore. This would make the money we aquiire possess us instead of vice versa.
However I also think that this quote is not completely acurate. I do believe that some people do have the power not to let money possess them. For example Bill Gates. He is a multi millionaire and he is still able to give money away as generousaly as he earns it. People like him make this statement true, however only to a limited number of peole.
