Annotation: Excerpt from Carnegie’s essay/letter helping show his personality and what he believes the rich should do with their money.

This evidence of his philanthropic view strongly supports his leadership in charity. His idea of how to use surplus wealth to help society affected many people who read it.

It gave a brief summary about Andrew Carnegie’s teenage and adult years.
