The older logo is also explicitly shown in the flashback when Ford is telling Bernard about the early years of the park . <| sep |> I would argue that Bill Gates appreciates a $ 20 bill far less than you or I . Just because he has more money does not mean he values it more . If anything , the opposite is often the case . I did not say once that hoarding money was a good plan . Maybe you thought that was what I meant with the sports analogy . Money is just a means to an end . It is useless by itself , the only value it holds is in what it can be exchanged for . I agree that having money during your life is good , but dying rich is a waste . You might say that spending your money on other people is a good way to spend it because it makes you and others happy . But is it really a good action if it ' s done to make the spender feel better about themselves ? In the case of a lot of wealthy philanthropists , the competition has shifted from making money no longer a challenge to donating it . Some philanthropists donate money purely for tax breaks . I believe the morally best way to spend your money is on things that further the human race it doesn ' t have to be by a lot . Whether that means pursuing more education or skills , or purchasing productive tools , or investing in new research , it ' s all a net positive . There ' s a fine , subjective line there when it comes to helping disadvantaged people . Helping someone bootstrap themselves into being a productive member of society is a morally excellent way to spend your money . Helping someone to survive purely because it makes you feel good to help , or because you don ' t want to see them suffer , is not . It ' s doing the human race no favors to shoulder more dead weight when that money could be invested on more productive members of society .
