Looking Out for Number One

When you look out for only yourself...it earns you nothing. You lose things like friends and family, the things you need the most out of everything. Scrooge is a perfect example of this. He put himself before everyone. He never gave to the poor, he never conversed with someone without making the other person want to cry, he never cared about anyone but himself! So now he is a person who lives alone, in the dark, with no friends or acquaintances to speak of. Putting yourself first does nothing for you. Because of that, I do not believe that putting yourself first is a good idea.
