4 types of people in regard to helping others

Four types of people in regard to helping others:
1. The one who practices neither for his/her own benefit nor for that of others
2. The one who practices for the benefit of others but not for his/her own
3. The one who practices for his/her own benefit but not for that of others
4. The one who practices for his/her own benefit and for that of others
(The highest / best one is number 4 above.)
(from Anguttara Nikaya 4.96)
