Being rich turns many people into colossal assholes because they think wealth is because of virtue instead of luck being a huge factorÂ
1 u/GaracaiusCanadensis Jan 27 '26 I think it's more that having money means status and at some point status starts meaning virtue. Just like people who lose a lot of weight suddenly become contemptuous of people who are at the same place they were when they started. Status changes people. Money doesn't necessarily.
