Replying to LO7939 --

Ben thank you for an engaging post which ended

==========quote=========
Finally, I'll answer the question, in context of both personal
and organizational wealth: Why is wealth important?
Because the ethical pursuit of wealth -- at any level --
requires individuals to grow and constantly develop their
abilities and their greatness. In the end, according to my
belief structure, individuals are the most important element
of an organization -- and it is for their success that an
organization should exist.

A, It gives me an opportunity to invite, again, a reflection on the
distinction of wealth and money.

B. Without disagreeing with your closing sentence the problem is that
'should' is not the same as 'does'. I wonder if the key question is not so
much 'who' benefits from the survival/ success of the organisation as
'what' benefits.
