Does money corrupt, or is money attractive to questionable people?
I was gonna include a third option about how money is easier to achieve without considering the morality of your actions but that's not really a philosophy as much as it is an objective fact.
Money doesn't equal power. They will have correlated retaltionships but correlation doesn't equal causation. For instances where there is an initial absence of both, the introduction or money is more common to follow the person's pursuit of power. Most people who weren't born to generational wealth won't achieve a wealthy enough accumulation until later in life and it well it may be hard to teach an old dog new tricks, it's nothing compared to motivating some one who has reached a point of enought financial security to retire.
I would argue that there is a bidirectional casual relationship. Having more money gives you more power because you can directly spend that money to do things. More power means you can better influence people to give you their money.
Lol what are you fuckin 12? Power isn't your mom telling you to clean your room. Get the fuck outta here with this bidirectional casual relationship shit 🤣 you can't argue logical reasoning with made up shit🤣
