Topic: Dear Rich People | |
---|---|
The fact is most of the rich people out there didn't work a day in their lives. They inherited their wealth. They keep it by hiring someone else to keep investing that wealth. Not every rich person out there is a Donald Trump, Bill Gates, or Will Smith. true...there are rich people that worked very hard for it....some lucked out there hard working poor people as well. i personally like the simple things in life I know a lot of hard working poor people who make sacrifices on a daily basis just to make ends meet. I have far more respect for them then the people who have endless amounts of money whining about paying income taxes. |

there are rich people out there that worked very hard for the money they made. not all rich are evil or came about it the lazy way
just like if someone is poor and struggling doesn't mean they are lazy either. there are lazy rich and poor that just want to whine. it goes both ways but to lump all in one catagory isn't right IMO |

A couple who work, the rest never have. |

They simply lucked out. If I had been lucky enough to inherit millions from my family, I probably wouldn't work either. |

Most of the people I know personally tend to be middle class though. |

If I had been lucky enough to inherit millions from my family, I probably wouldn't work either. lol me too. but i'm talking about getting to that point some actually worked their butts off to get where they are. they may have been good with the stock market etc to help get them there. there is nothing wrong with that at all. maybe part of it is luck...but can't discount hard work either |

The fact?
Yep. Can you define rich and prove the fact? |

most of the people i know (not as rich as trump, but they are rich) have money through hard work (although they won't adopt me lol)
maybe it's where you are that you don't know them. most of the wealthy i know struggled to make what they have |
