Only hard if you're that kind of person. Not everyone is like that. And those kind of people have difficulty believing this.
It's a "courage isn't the absence of fear" sort of situation. I don't think there's many people out there who would not be tempted at all to take some of that money for themselves. Rather, people are willing and able to rise above that temptation.

#186The incremental transformation from non-profit to for-profit... does anyone have legal standing to sue? Early hires, who were lured there by the mission? Donors? People who were supposed to be served by the non-profit (everyone)? Some government regulator?
