The question is about benefiting financially or otherwise.
I didn’t say you were an asshole for observing, I am saying you will be known as an asshole if you follow your own advice.
So as an experiment, go open a small business, run it without integrity, and see how far that takes you. Building contractor, hair salon, dry cleaner, restaurant, corner store, landscaping, whatever, pick one.
Cheat your customers and employees, stiff your suppliers. Water down the product, cut corners on quality, don’t return phone calls.
You’ll he a huge success, right?
