Officials were using this money to buy summer homes and other luxuries. Furthermore, the officials were caught, and Enron's filed for bankruptcy. Like Goneril and Regan, the greedy officials craved wealth, and after they were caught, they profited nothing.
Another popular way people think they can achieve wealth and power is by marrying one of a higher class. In Twelfth Night , the servant Malvolio believes he is of higher class than those he serves. Maria in act two makes a statement which Malvolio believes "all that look on him love him" (2.3.151).

Love never plays a main role in possibly marrying Olivia. Malvolio is more concerned with self- advantages. People of the twenty- first century marry for wealth all of the time. A prime example is the marriage of Anna Nicole Smith to J. Howard Marshall. Smith, a stripper, met multi- millionaire Marshall when she was nineteen years old. After receiving several gifts, Smith accepted Marshall's proposal. Less than a year after the proposal, Marshall died. Rather than mourning over his death, Smith and her stepson are fighting over the dividing of he estate. The greedy idea of marrying for money instead of love will always exist as long as people believe money means happiness. .

Once Timon discovers that all his apparent friends are frauds, he calls them all "Most smiling, smooth detested parasites,/ Courteous destroyers, affable wolves, meek bears" (3.6.105). Timon decides to move to the woods "where he shall find/ The unkindest beast more kinder than mankind" (4.
