People and wealth

You can take a self made millionaire & a poor guy and drop them both off in a strange city with $5k each to start a new life. 
10 yrs later the former millionaire will probably be a millionaire again & the poor guy will probably be poor again. 
It's the person & the mindset that makes the difference. Even if we took all the wealth & divided it up equally amongst everyone. Given enough time most the money would be back where it was before it was divided up. Some might call bullsh*t. I say the people that do complain a lot & have a lot of excuses.

Well, W., lots of truth there, perhaps, anecdotally, but wonder if it has ever formally been studied. Also probably depends on how they got the money at first. Wouldn't bet on a trust fund baby. Aa-V.
laugh Explains why Trump has gone bankrupt so many times.
Self made multi millionaires. The days of millionaires being anything special are long gone .
It takes money to make money, wish I had a nickel for ever over confident multi millionaire that died by a river fishing for dinner by his van.
While Alicia Keyes would still have the same talent, I'm not so sure those lottery winners would win the lottery again. laugh

One thing however is for sure. The broke people would be better off with the $5K and the previous millionaires
would be a lot less happy with only $5K. So, lets try it ! laugh
