False dichotomy, but you hit upon someone that would surely be unfulfilling-someone who acts wholly to gain with no regard for anything else is surely half a man, doomed to wonder how he squandered his life in the end.

Now if he seeks to improve himself and pursue that which impassions him the result is quite different-even if he has little regard for the world at large. "The path with a heart" is personal and only you can determine what it means.
