安德鲁·卡内基《安德鲁·卡内基自传》· Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie · 领导
Do not let it be thought, however, that my younger partners were forgotten, or that they have not played a very important part in sustaining me in the effort of reconciling myself to the new conditions. Far otherwise! The most soothing influence of all was their prompt organization of the Carnegie Veteran Association, to expire only when the last member dies. Our yearly dinner together, in our own home in New York, is a source of the greatest pleasure,--so great that it lasts from one year to the other. Some of the Veterans travel far to be present, and what occurs between us constitutes one of the dearest joys of my life. I carry with me the affection of "my boys." I am certain I do. There is no possible mistake about that because my heart goes out to them. This I number among my many blessings and in many a brooding hour this fact comes to me, and I say to myself: "Rather this, minus fortune, than multi-millionairedom without it--yes, a thousand times, yes."

白话
卡内基强调,他并没有忘记年轻的合伙人,他们在帮助他适应新生活方面起了重要作用。最让他安慰的是,他们迅速组织了“卡内基老员工协会”,直到最后一名成员去世才终止。他们每年在纽约他自己的家里聚餐,这带给他极大快乐,快乐持续一整年。有些老员工远道而来,他们之间的互动是他生命中最珍贵的欢乐之一。他带着“孩子们”对他的爱,确信无疑,因为他的心也向着他们。他把这列为众多福气之一,在沉思时常常想到,并对自己说:“宁可要这个,不要没有它的千万富翁生活——是的,一千个是的。”
上下文
卡内基晚年重视与老员工的情谊,这段话是他对财富与人际关系价值的比较。
