I spent several years in and around the executive level. While there are some class acts the purely money-focused push them out. To wit:

“It has always seemed strange to me... the things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success. And while men admire the quality of the first they love the produce of the second.”

—John Steinbeck

Yep. Pretty much sums up up my thoughts. Though far more eloquently.
