RE: THE F&%KED UP LIVES OF THE SUPER RICH AND POWERFUL…

in #life8 years ago

This is all too real for most people to comprehend. Most thinking, "Oh, they're rich, they'll just get rehab and be fine," or even, "They got everything in life they could dream of having anyways!" How about thinking they might have, like the rest of us, wanted to see their kids graduate or even die WITH a family?

As this article says, they are human like the rest of us. Despite their bratty attitudes in the spotlight, they really do share the same emotions and pain the less fortunate do. I really hope others can see this article and understand how real and powerful wealth can be. It's just like a rollercoaster, once it starts, no one can control it.

Did you hear about that experiment they did with a few monkeys/gorillas/whatevers where they taught them the concept of money by trading a banana and the coin back and forth. After releasing the coins, all the animals brought the coins to the closest female and banged her brains out. Soon, the female was sitting with coins stacked to the ceiling and the monkeys were pennyless. Just like these animals, they couldn't handle the responsibility of money and spent it all on leisures. It's how our uncivilized mind thinks: Us first; Others later.

Sort:  

For the ones (lucky or unlucky) that are born into it.., they don't know anything else, growing up in the bubble of such wealth.
