It is not wrong to be rich, unless you love the money more than your family and friends, are stuck-up, and not willing to help people that are economically in need for some important reason.

There's nothing wrong with being rich. The wrongness, if any, comes from becoming wealthy or maintaining wealth in such a manner that it harms others, i.e. unethically.
There is a good deal of money to be made by looking at what needs fixing, or at least improving in this world and creating products and services that fill that need. Look at Ben & Jerry's and Starbucks, to name two companies that address the needs of the planet and provide high-demand products at the same time.
I wish you all the best.

Depends on your veiwpoint. Capitalism allows the rich to stay rich and the poor to stay poor. If you're rich and you do good deeds with your money and don't take it for granted I don't think it's wrong. There are 'bad' people in all economic classes. Just because someone is rich doesn't mean they're a bad person. Flaunting wealth, in my opinion, is wrong because it reminds everyone how poor they are.

The Universe isn't interested with "how much$"...but, is very interested in..."how you acquired $"-and-"how you spend, or give, you$" -these answers determine if rich is good or bad-
