What do billionaires around the world say about money?

(Baonghean.vn) - Your perspective on money can be an important factor in determining whether you become rich or not. Let's find out what billionaires around the world say about money.

1. Jack Ma - Chairman of Alibaba Group

“It's easy to make money these days. But it's hard to make money sustainably while being socially responsible and making the world a better place."

2. Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook

“My goal was never simply to build a company. A lot of people misunderstand that, as if I didn’t care about revenue or profits. What I wanted to say was to build something that would make a real difference in the world.”

3. Warren Buffett, chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway

“I will tell you how to become rich. Close the door. Be fearful when others are greedy. Be greedy when others are fearful.”

4. George Soros - Investor and Chairman of Soros Fund Management

“Financial markets are generally very unpredictable… The idea that you can predict what will happen contradicts my view of markets.”

5. Michael Dell, CEO of Dell Inc.

“I believe that you have to understand the economics of a business before you have a strategy, and you have to understand your strategy before you have a structure. If you achieve these things in the wrong order, you will probably fail.”

6. Sheldon Adelson - Chairman and CEO of Las Vegas Sands Corporation

“I never thought about becoming rich. It never crossed my mind. What really motivated me was to try to do something meaningful.”

7. Ingvar Kamprad founder of IKEA

“I’m a bit tight with money, so what? I think about the money I’m spending on myself and wonder if IKEA customers can afford it… I can fly first class all the time, but having a lot of money is no excuse to be wasteful. If you’re a good leader, you have to set an example. I have to do that for all IKEA employees.”

8. Meg Whitman - CEO of Hewlett Packard Enterprise

“When a small business grows as big as eBay did, it has a huge impact. It creates other small businesses that in turn provide it with capital, goods, and intellectual services.”

9. Sergey Brin - co-founder of Google and President of Alphabet Inc.

“You hear people say money can’t buy happiness. But deep down, I think a lot of money can buy some happiness. But maybe that’s not quite true.”

10. Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon

“I think frugality drives innovation, as do other constraints. One of the only ways to get out of a tight box is to invent your way out.”

11. Larry Page, co-founder of Google and CEO of Alphabet Inc.

“If our motivation was money, we would have sold this company a long time ago and gone to the beach.”

12. Michael Bloomberg, CEO of Bloomberg LP

I think the more money people have, the more they spend. If they don't spend, they invest. And investing is a way to create jobs. Money is kept in mutual funds or different types of banks and it is also pumped out into the market in the form of debt.
