Gospel of Wealth

How should immense wealth be managed? This timeless question is at the center of Andrew Carnegies influential essay, Wealth, often called The Gospel of Wealth, penned in 1889. Carnegie proposed that the answer lies in philanthropy—not just any form, but initiatives driven and supported by the wealthy while they are still alive. He championed projects that not only uplift communities but also engage the public to ensure their long-lasting impact. From public libraries and parks to universities and hospitals, Carnegies vision was to create a legacy that endures beyond the benefactor. He believed it was the responsibility of self-made millionaires to uplift those less fortunate. By his passing, Carnegie had established over 3,000 libraries globally, and today, numerous Carnegie foundations continue to advocate for social causes that mirror his ideals.
