There are two inevitable consequences of having money that you must be mindful of. The first is a feeling of power over others. The second is a feeling that you are better than others. Once those two feelings arise, you are veering into the realm of pride.
Think of money as a gift. It's not just the result of hard work, for there are those who worked harder than you who didn't succeed. Also think of it as a responsibility - it enables you to help others.
Embrace the feeling of being the recipient of good gifts and of having a responsibility to others. It will save you.
