Why do you put having money as the opposite of being compassionate?
In my experience, people with money are more compassionate then those without, because they can afford to be.
It is more Complicated than that, it is a Global problem we have to have an answer/solution for. Some are (very few) compassionate others are simply Rich Kids thinking they are playing Monopoly.
In my Opinion, Advanced Beings do not play games with each others Lives and put Hard Value on their existence. A Civilization based soley on Progress and Innovation would be obssessed with it .. thinking NONE of Money. Thinking just of a Better Future and leaving the Planet you came in, in Literally a better way

Just imagine this....
That sounds like one of those (more or less "religious") utopias that can never exist outside the utopists own in group. Because human nature.
