The earth is a spinning ball of molten nickle and iron. It is not a value. It is not your mommy. Humans obviously put a great value on it as it is our precarious little perch in the universe, but it is our subjective perception.

So, you have no argument against the fact that one can have empathy and money. There is no reason why you can't have both. Look at the CEO of Twitter, he donated 1 billion dollars towards the fight against the corona virus. That is 28% of his total wealth. His generous act will do so much more than your bitter complaining about money.

You see how having a lot of money can do a lot of good for people?
