I have a strong passion for entrepreneurship and plan on doing a lot in my life but I. Can’t seem to shake the fact that many of history’s greatest entrepreneurs seemed like total assholes and become extremely evil men who don’t care about any one but themselves and world domination. My examples are John d Rockefeller and J.P. Morgan I just have a massive fear that if I take this career path I will become a evil person to make a large corporation that is way to powerful and dose more harm then good . Any advice on how to shake this fear and get on with my goals for my life.

    You have been misinformed. Many entrepreneurs had a social conscience and did good in the world. Even Rockefeller. While he ran Standard Oil he brought the price of kerosene down from $1 a gallon to 6 cents. Many people around the world benefited. He also gave away millions to education and charity. I know it is fashionable to think he was some kind of monster, he wasn’t. Suggest you read “Titan” for more information.

    There are plenty of other examples I only mentioned him because you did.
