When you create wealth, it’s your responsibility to return it to society.

Robert Kiyosaki

Greg Saunier

India is known for much development that has happened since our independence, but at the same time, we have also failed on many levels. It is the responsibility of the future generation to ensure that all these failures are corrected and help create a civilised society with equal opportunities for one and all.

N. R. Narayana Murthy
