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.

Statistically, the pinnacle of your entrepreneur career will be when you almost broke even that one month. I wouldn't spend a lot of time worrying about what happens once you've conquered the world.

If you're really worried about it, maybe run a lemonade stand for a bit and see if you feel evil.

OP is prematurely worried about the wrong things (unless it's a troll post)
