How to use riches in a sentence?

1. Singer Justin Timberlake:

   I have always wanted to work on a soundtrack after getting to explore acting in film and having done a ton of music over the years, at some point wanting to combine those was always something that I wanted to do, this became like an embarrassment of riches because you're actually in the movie as well you're playing you know one of the supporting role to the lead in the movie and getting to do all the music. It's like - sign me up!

2. Andrew Carnegie:

   I believe Socialism is the grandest theory ever presented, and I am sure it will someday rule the world. Then we will have attained the Millennium... Then men will be content to work for the general welfare and share their riches with their neighbors.

3. Jonathan Adler:

   There's a lot of research on the theme of redemption. It's sort of a classic American master narrative, we have the Puritan settlers finding freedom. We have ex-slaves' narratives about liberation. We have the rags to riches stories.

4. Claude Adrien Helvetius:

   There are men whom a happy disposition, a strong desire of glory and esteem, inspire with the same love for justice and virtue which men in general have for riches and honors....But the number of these men is so small that I only mention them in honor of humanity.

5. B. C. Forbes:

   Real riches are the riches possessed inside.
