About this Quote

Henry Ford's quote talks to the concept that money should be utilized to improve the lifestyle, rather than merely to collect more wealth. He suggests that capital needs to be utilized to create opportunities for people to improve their lives, instead of simply to increase one's own wealth. This might consist of buying education, health care, and other social services that benefit the public. It could also consist of investing in organizations that produce jobs and stimulate economic growth. Ford's quote encourages us to believe beyond our own financial gain and to think about how our cash can be utilized to benefit society as a whole. By buying jobs that improve the lifestyle, we can create a much better future for everyone.
