Is it bad that I 'dislike' rich people?

I’m not saying I have every single person out there who has more money than me, but I absolutely despise people who are out there with a ton of money and constantly show it off purposely trying to make people jealous? Is it wrong that I despise them? Maybe because I have been brought up from a not so rich family, more on the poor side? Maybe I’m a little jealous? I mean yeah I get a bit jealous of people who have a ton of cash and live in mansions, most people are right?.. But people who just have loads of money and decide to abuse it.. It’s not at all right.. You could think of it as a bit of a stupid complaint, right? Or maybe you think I’m an idiot for posting it, but I just wanted to know what all of you think? Do you think its right that people should be rubbing hundreds of thousands of pounds/dollars in peoples faces? What’s going on? ={

Answer #1

No I agree with you. I don’t think differently of people who have money. It only changes my opinion of them when they start showing off, thinking that they are better than people who don’t have as much money. Money does not make a person better than everyone else.

Answer #2

Yes! You’re so right! People can become so snoppy when they have so much money!

Answer #3

I’ve done business with wealthy people and people of more modest means. I would much rather deal with those of modest means. Rich people usually have such a sense of entitlement and think that they are so very special that you should bend over backwards to help them then not charge them. Rich people also tend to think everyone is trying to rip them off and are suspicious of every little thing. People who are not rich usually appreciate good service and a fair break. There are exceptions in both groups but in general the more money someone has the more difficult they are to deal with. Look at Donald Trump. Need I say more? Of course rich is relative. By a lot of people’s standards I’m rich. The CEO of my company made 90 times as much money as I did last year. By his standard I’m a pauper.

Answer #4

You despise pretentious people. Join the club. Anyone that thinks they are above anyone is dumb unless your me. jokes.. but i am quite tall. especially on ladders.

Answer #5

It’s not what you have or how much money you have that makes you important. It’s the way you act and treat others. :)

Answer #6

i agree. i dislike people who abuse money too.. i mean the people that are rich and saving for college or other important stuff, thats fine but those people who spend money on stupid things like 500 dollars for a haircut, or just saying things to show off how rich they are, i really dislike them. i feel like “there are soo many people who could build a life with how much you spend once for your haircut, you could atleast donate a little to the charity”.. i mean be rich but be the nice kind of rich, not the snobby mean kind. but rich isnt like something fixed.. for the homeless people, im rich, for me, the movie stars are rich, for the movie stars, people like warren buffet, are rich.. its kinda like a never ending cycle i guess..

Answer #7

I think if someone works hard to get that money or their family, then it is there money and they can do with it what they choose because they earned it and it is theirs to do what they will. I don’t think it’s right for them to try and make people envy them but if they wanna buy an expensive mansion to live in and pay for it with the money they earned then it’s not our business to worry about it.
Purposely trying to make others hurt is a completely different matter. I don’t hate people that have a lot of money at all. Many times they work hard for what they have. They are just people.

Answer #8

Many different opinions I am seeing.. I agree with you all though, especially where Lily said about they earned it do they can do what they want with it, but it’s the fact that people earn loads and don’t put it towards their family, holidays, a nice house.. They buy rediculious things like a motorbike that’s worth thousands ride it once and never ever touch it again. Think of what thu could of bought with it instead or even given it to a charity? Think of them who have been brought of on £30 a month or so… It’s pathetic.

Answer #9

Not all of them waste their money like that but even those that do, it’s their money to waste so I try to keep my nose out of their foolish choices. XD

Answer #10
