You encourage people to get rich. But whom exactly do you encourage? Everyone? You certainly realize that it is impossible that everyone gets rich, since a person can only be rich (in a financial sense) relative to others. But I think that all of us can have a richer life (in a not strictly financial sense), if we learn to share and care, instead of taking from others just to have a little bit more for ourselves.
