A Friend In Need

As a businessman, you shouldn't have the time to be moving around with friends that wouldn't be able provide you support, if you're ever in need of some assistance. Nobody can do it all no their own - you can't, neither can I, nor can anyone else. That means that we'll always be needing people; and that's why it gets complicated a bit.
This is because most business people have acknowledged that understanding human behaviors and tendencies is more complicated that playing 3 dimensional chess. Human beings can pretend and cover who they really are, and their real intentions, hence it's very difficult to choose people that should be around you.
Even more difficult is knowing people that you can actually call your friends. Most people take the word friendship lightly, but it's not - a good friend is supposed to be with you through the thick and thin. And is always ready to assist you when you're in need. Except you're still a child, that all you need friends for is playing with toys, but life gets more complex as we grow up.

The wealthiest people always surround themselves with like minds - people who they feel that they can trust to a great extent. Remember, you can never trust anybody one hundred percent. The reason is simple - you cannot even trust your own self 100%, let alone trusting another person absolutely.
What you actually want is someone that you at least trust will always have your back to a great extent. You can actually try testing your friends as a businessman - by asking for financial assistance from them, even when you don't need it. But you can paint a picture that you're in a financial squeeze, then you observe if they're able to provide you support. It's important to have friends that can be there for you, if you're ever in need; especially as a business person.
Hello @humor0404!
It is true that not everyone knows well the concept of friendship and do not value it, however, I believe that there are people in whom we can rely on and trust in the moments when we need them the most. Certainly in business you have to pay special attention to those around you, but you will always need people you can trust to achieve your goals. Greetings!
Even though the concept and the understanding of you can not trust any body is still in tact. One thing I still believe is most especially as a businessman, one still need a friend which one can trust. There can still be that type of friend
People we call our freinds should be people who thinks like us and are ready to help us out when we are facing problems and challenges and not does that will run away.
