7、你知道什麼事情會讓老祖宗痛苦不堪嗎？就是當他們知道你們之中有任何人變得揮霍無度、奢侈浪費、對於他的錢財毫不在乎的時候。
Do you know what would hurt grandfather a great deal? to know that any of you boys should become wasteful, extravagant, careless with his money.
8、讓金錢成為我的奴隸，而非讓自己淪為金錢的奴隸，這種想法越來越深入我的內心。
The impression was gaining ground with me that it was a good thing to let the money be my slave and not make myself a slave to money.
9、我沒有發大財的野心。單純賺錢從來不是我的目標。我看到我們國家美好的未來，我想加入讓國家變得美好的宏圖之中。我有建設的雄心壯志。
I had no ambition to make a fortune. Mere money making has never been my goal. I saw a marvelous future for our country, and I wanted to participate in the work of making our country great. I had an ambition to build.
10、一個人在法律允許的範圍內積攢了一筆錢，政府無權共享其收益。
When a man has accumulated a sum of money, accumulated it within the law, the government has no right to share in its earnings.
