Compassion, and only compassion makes a better person. Wealth per se does not make a better person, but, i think, it can tend to make a person more compassionate with time.

That all depends on who is the object making the observation. For example I can be the one who has the wealth and am a lot happier for it thus a better person in my opinion. Or I can be he wealthy persons friend and of course any of that wealth that comes my way will suscite better person comments on my part and thus on down the line. Do you know any wealthy people who are worse off?

Wealth does'nt make a better person. Money isnt everything. It can buy you evrything but it isnt everything. Love and family and friends are everything in the world. Everyone would love to have money but most people are just middle class workers living check to check. Sometimes, when people come into money it totally changes them and most of the time for the worst, they look down on the peopl who they were once side by side with and it tends to make most people think they are better than the next person so it doesnt necessarily make them better they just think they are better!

That is certainly right in most situations. Most people in the world try to work so hard simply because they want to achieve wealth. Wealth brings a human mostly good things which they always desire. Obviously, money is the most powerful thing

Wealth makes you more of what you already are. If you are generous & kind when you have modest means, you will have the opportunity to be fabulously generous with your wealth. If you are creep, you will be a bigger one.

no, what you do with your wealth could make you a better person though!

No. Money cannot buy breeding. Bad is bad and good is good, wealth only determines whether you are a rich baddy or a rich goody.

Only if you spend all of your money helping others and live a simple life.
Wealth only makes you a richer one, but it doesn't make you happy, or a better person if you're mean.

yea suppose it does really, but in who's eyes? i think that welath makes a better person if you are an outsider and are friends with the wealthy person as it makes more activities in friendship availiable, but in some cases it makes people snobby. but my opnion is yes in the point of view of a friend
