r2Dtoo Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 (edited) Well, it used to be the top 1%. Now it's the top 2%. I wonder how long it's going to take to get to the top 47%. Edited December 23, 2012 by r2Dtoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarbTherese Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 (edited) I have none of the above, in fact far far less, nor aspire to same - and yet regard myself as rich beyond measure .....in fact I once had the above (bar the final point on the list) and probably far more and never ever even passingly think to look back with desire, quite to the contrary. "Rich" is always going to be a matter of one's personal definition and definitions are not necessarily the fact of the matter.

BarbTherese Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I feel sorry for the worldly wealthy, life can be very hard for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Normile Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 The rich are blessed with either the ability or the will to acquire wealth. There are those whose parents were the ones blessed with these abilities and they were blessed with wealth by their parents. How they handle that wealth in life is of course up to them and will affect their salvation. Brabara Therese, do you feel sorry for the worldly wealthy like Billy Graham who do great works and charity ? Or is this pity for those you perceive as the " bad rich " What do you base your sorrow on ? Is it the medias view popularized these days that they stole monies from the poor, if so how do you feel about business owners who hire people allowing them to enjoy the comforts of life such as a roof over their heads and a full stomach and the ability to provide for their children, should they not be lauded as the providers they are ? ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevil Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 The earth used to provide these things. Now rich people do.Just think where USA would be if they didn't have people taking the initiative to develop industry. No companies, no jobs, no running water, no electricity, no sewerage systems, no tv, no internet, no university, no hospitals, no roads.Just lots and lots of starving, desperate people.
