Why Are Rich People Never Satisfied? - Page 3

Okay, how about this wild card.

I am interested in money(that's why I know so much about the stock market).

And I am interested in political activism.

As you can imagine the two conflict, so I try to take the moderate path between all-out lassiez faire capitalism and communism.

I am sorry if the moderate path seems bitter to people.

The topic "Why are rich people never satisfied?"

This is not concerning those that inherited their wealth.

If they were easily satisfied they would have become satisfied way before they became rich.

I have a different slant on this subject. Some ( not all ) people with more money than they know what to do with have bought everything they ever wanted, gone everywhere they wanted to go, and tried everything new. They know there is nothing left to get excited about, or look forward to, so they are bored to tears.

Then help out the world achieve the same wealth(hopefully not the same boredom ), and that you can never be satisfied with.

Give a man a fish and feed him for a day. Teach him to fish and feed him for life. There is nothing wrong with the have nots getting off their backsides and earning their own.

Why Are Rich People Never Satisfied?

Exactly. In fact if you give the havenots the fish, the havenots will feel like they are entitled to it, and leech off you.

I have nothing against helping others, I support wholeheartdly, but it's sustainable development and communal self-reliance which works the best.

Since I work in the accounting field, I see plenty of rich folks, how they get their money, and what they do with their money. I can't see any real pattern to who does what with their money, but the main issue is that nearly every one of them works and works hard for that money - with a few exceptions for people who inherit. They tend to be greedy and grasping and bitter much more so than the folks who are working hard for their wealth - and there are exceptions there, as well, with those who inherited money that have then gone on to start businesses, etc., as Mousetrails mentioned about his wife.

"Rich people" aren't much different from "non-rich people" in my opinion. They just have more money.

FarSeer, thank you for common sense.

But I still believe that rich people(in Buffetesque style), should help out the world.

Offtopic but, By the way, it's nice to see accounting isn't a dying field, especially how many people are in debt.
