RE: The World would be a lot better if 90% of families had $1 million to their name.

@kwakumax based on just numbers and on paper you may be right, however

people are not poor because they do not have money. They are poor because of their state of mind.


The richest countries with natural resources have people living the lowest quality of life. This alone proves my point.
Have you heard of miliionaires kids who inherited great wealth and ended up on the streets homeless? pretty common

There is a lot more to wealth and good quality of life than just money. Wealth has to be managed and increased.
Bill Gates you mentioned did not inherit wealth. In the same time period in which he created, grew and has preserved wealth a lot of people could have done the same. To expect a hand out is the poverty mentality I am talking about that will always keep people poor and entitled even with a billion dollars in their hands.
