I think it's absolutely necessary. Having money and power will bring us many conveniences, and it makes everything easier. I think almost everyone wants those conveniences, including me.
That's why so many people chase money or desire it. There's no eternal happiness in having a lot of money and power, but at least we can create it compared to having nothing.
Power and money are like abilities that everyone in this world must possess. As long as we ourselves desire a higher level of happiness, it will certainly involve money and power. However, when it comes to achieving both, not everyone is in the same situation, so there will always be variations in achieving them, which will give rise to quite diverse differences. Because money can always give rise to greater power in many ways, power can also be created by the amount of money we have.
