I'll just leave this here

[Sithara007]

The rich can spend money in whatever way they want. It is their choice. Don't forget the fact that in most of the countries, the super-rich are paying more than 60% of their income in taxes (in France it used to be 75%).

The game of life is a cruel one some people will have success others will fail.

Sometimes the only thing that makes a difference between the crucial line of failure and success is a persons determination appetite and hunger to succeed and not stay stuck in a rut. As they say

Opportunity will only knock at your door three times, so when it comes along be sure to grab it. Learn to listen to the voice inside, to the preacher, to the voice from your granddaughter, the beggar on the corner of the street.  Wisdom can come from many different directions.

Another proverb:
In Chinese, Confucius says there is one teacher among three people who walk with you. If three people walk with you, there is always one that can be your teacher. What does that mean? In our life no one is super, no one is perfect. We always have at least one mentor, someone in our life who can give us some guidance, wisdom, lessons. We learn from each other. Earlier in our life our parents are our first mentor and teacher, later our teachers, later some wise men and wise women are our mentors, then we find some spiritual teachers who also serves as a spiritual mentor.

To achieve one must read and hunger it's that struggle that makes success beautiful, others may chance upon a stroke of good fortune but it may not last long if they are naive about it think the lotto winners.

Anyways advice for the day.

many of them already start up a foundation to help poor people, but there are so many people that need helps maybe too many that the donation cant reach all of them and we just advice and suggest that rich people should give some to the poor but it is not an obligation for them to do so, it is up to them what they want to do with their money

There are some people whose door were never knocked by opportunity, sometimes the very place you are born into already determines your fate in life, no matter how determined you are it's not gonna work out at all.

Welcome to our world.Equality maybe sounds good but I think it's an utopia.In fact over the 50% of world's wealth belongs to the 1% of people.I have no more words.

i worked near minimum wage for years having zero quality of life as i saved up money, learned amazon and affiliate marketing, set up a few businesses with an american guy and we're going to do about 1.5 million profit this year between us, next year it will be a lot more because we reinvest everything. about 1/3 of our money gets taken away from us in taxes until we figure out how to go offshore.

my colleagues from my old job, many of whom i still speak to, earned the same money as me but chose to spend it on their social lives, drinking, vacationing abroad and the usual temporal nonsense. they are all net zero tax contributors, meaning the £1.5k or so they pay in income tax doesn't nearly cover the cost of the housing benefit, healthcare and other government services they consume

moral of the story is nobody owes you shit. make better decisions in your life if you want to have more stuff.

Well good for you. I guess time is also a factor. Your live suck now but it would be better later if you do so and so. Either you dance around like a cricket or start hoarding food for winter. Of course this is assuming you'd live long enough to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Life can be quite fickle.

The only issue I'd be having with this statement is that if a person is poor, not working, using welfare programs or even abusing welfare programs, they SHOULDN'T be using these sort of luxuries. I know I may be contradicting what was written, but in all honesty you should be making the smart decision for yourself and for your family to be using that money in the right way and not WASTING it on these sort of things.

I know I'm going to be called out for playing into what this tweet is saying is the worst, but you could get a much higher BANG for your BUCK for coffee if you don't go to starbucks, or do this, or do that. So, that's just my two cents.

A few small luxuries every now and then is fine but Starbucks is ridiculous, especially for third worlders. I see people who live on debt spend their time their to look like they got money.
