I have tried to live the early, or fist part of my life in the way I was brought up and I had a Catholic upbringing. I wanted to live an honest life in all areas, including business. However, reality has shown me that to live in the world that we currently have it is impossible to live life along the lines laid out by Jesus Christ. Those of us who have been or who are "idealists" will never, ever be happy with life on this Earth because we will ALWAYS be dissapointed and let down. And, it will be impossible to build any businesses by being totally and utterly honest. One example of this is paying people a decent wage. Very often it is impossible to pay people a decent wage (and by that I mean higher than the minimum) because by doing so will mean that they company will not survive.
So, there is reality and idealism. I am now, unfortunately a realist because I want some happiness in this world. Opinions please.
