According to Carnegie, the duty of the man of wealth is to set an example of modest and unpretentious living, and abstaining from a display of luxury where they provide service by distributing their surplus wealth to the benefit of the community.
Carnegie believed it was acceptable to make a lot of money. That is what can happen from those that are the strongest and the fittest. However, Carnegie believed those who were wealthy had an obligation to use that wealth for good purposes.
