We can all get rich but to make such a profound and lasting contribution is something more people should open themselves to the idea of doing.
I think both of these things -- getting rich and making a profound contribution to humanity -- are very hard, require a lot of luck, and will be achieved by precious few no matter how hard you try. That doesn't mean people shouldn't try, of course.
Since these are all subjective terms I think I can say I agree at least to an extent - earning your own fortune is admirable in my opinion but changing the world through innovation is awe inspiring, god like.
