14. Please describe your reactions/ideas to the following quote: "He does not possess wealth, it possesses him."

I believe that what this quote is saying is that when a man has a lot of wealth, (money for example), they tend to get carried away with that feeling of "power" and take advantage of it, almost in an uncontrollable way. They are so infatuated by it that they can't seem to think clearly, like they are possessed by it. They probably will do things with that money that they would've never done before. People who can't control themselves with money will probably and most likely spend it carelessly, and in less time than they think, it will all be gone.
