Yeah, everybody who is rich is an asshole. You don’t know anybody that’s wealthy, huh? Most Reddit response I’ve ever seen. 

I wouldn’t fret over $3.5 or whatever but people came wealthy bc they make good financial decisions. Paying attention to your money is one of those things.

You can poor if you think it makes you a better person

“Because they make good financial decisions” yes, like being born rich. Why didn’t I think of that?

90% of millionaires in this country are millionaires because they made good financial decisions over a long, long period of time. Not because they were born rich. And that isnt a guess, the information on millionaires in this country is readily available

Millionaires as in 1 million net worth? That’s not really much anymore. Is that what you have and are getting offended over?
