If you had a service that could serve 1,000,000 people you'd be rich. The more people you serve the more money you get. The more people you can make happy, the more your customers. The better your service the more ready your clients are to pay. People who don't want to serve others are selfish, near-sighted, and unwise. Great investors know how to give, know how to serve, know how to invest in services that people will pay back.

People want to know more than others, so they go to school, learn by themselves, and try to get an educational advantage. There is a tendency for some people to be insecure about other people knowing more than they do. This is because it translates to other people having more advantage than they do. Therefore people try to keep themselves at an advantage by either 1) learning more than they teach, or 2) teaching less than they learn. People who learn a hundred things a day are not worried to tell you half of them. People who learn only 5 things a day sometimes want to keep all of it to themselves. The security of teaching a lot of ideas to other people comes from learning a lot more ideas than you release. Therefore generally teachers who learn a lot, teach a lot too.
