I'm sure for some people it does make them lazy, but I think it depends on how they got the money to begin with. People like Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, and other very successful individuals are naturally hard workers, and money hasn't made them lazy--it's never enough for them anyway, so they don't think they can rest on their laurels.
On the other hand, some people win the lottery, become rich, and never work another day in their lives. Same goes for some people who inherit great wealth. The latter group never has to work for it, so they grow up with the belief that money is always going to be there and have no perspective on issues like poverty.
Aside from the laziness issue, it's still a very good idea to find passive income strategies and to not let your money be lazy. The rich know this, which is why they invested in hedge funds like Bernie Madoff's.

Sometimes, being rich is somehow making them lazy because they can afford to let others do anything for them. Well if that rich person strives really hard to pursue what he got, then he really deserve to have that life. But doing it again and again isn't that good especially for pur body. We would live a sedentary lifestyle if we let our laziness takes into place. We should still do something. In that way, in my point of view, it could makes us feel the life we have after having the rich life we have right now.

I know some of you here will be relating this to "Let Your Money do the Work for You" and all of you will assume that people doing this are lazy well I will have to disagree with you. Yes they may not be doing all the physical labor needed to earn what regular workers do but managing a business or beinge one of the top in the company is absolutely one of the most hard work you will have to do. Imagine overlookong all departments at the same time future proofing your business it would be tough and a lot of stress for any business owner out there. So for people thinking that all rich people are lazy think again.

A person's satisfaction is different, or he believes he will get money in the next few days like someone who works in several companies. This type of person like you said before they will spend money when they have it.
But there are some people who think of the future with the money. They think that the value of money will change every time, and the value of each item (staple) will increase over time. So the solution that must be done is to choose the place of investment for his life in the future. This method is indeed effective for making the money held still has the same value in the next few years.

Pretty sure, some of us think right now that when we have lotas of money, we will spend most of our time enjoying it and gaining more at the same time. Most of us applies that ideology, yet it appears that some do not. When they got money, they rest like exhausted horses after a good run. Does money make people lazy? Do you think it's just a good thing to do that?
Come on man, why are we against the rich? Just because they are rich doesn't mean they all are lazy about it. I actually feel that they are not lazy because they are actually making money because they worked very hard for it and also very smart. We can not judge these things just by gossiping here. I mean come on why do you thin they are rich? I guess they worked thats why they are rich. If they are having leisure stuff all around them then it doesnt mean that they have gotten lazy. But they are acquiring life style which they can afford daily. Its not laziness.

Money will make someone lazy just for lazy person. But for the person who makes the money is for make ends meet and make his life always guaranteed, they will not be lazy when he got the money. Instead, they will be increasingly encouraged to get more money than usual. Assessing good or not to the person who has earned money then he becomes lazy is not good IMO.
They will not be able to take an advantage of the opportunity to continue to earn money, while he needs money for life after the money he gets is used up. A person's life will not be separated from money, he will always need it in any situation. How many people have money, with the time process the money will run out and this is the function to always look for and earn money.

I don't think so. When you have money, you probably have a more active life. You can spend more time taking advantage of the good things that life has, and that is not synonymous with laziness. You may not be so productive in your professional life. But on a personal level, it can be very important.

Generally people who get wealthy building their wealth are less lazy than those who have been wealthy by inheritance.

Being rich will make you lazy for a couple of months. In that duration, you have to enjoy how much you can and then you have to force yourself to get back on the track. It's up to you that you want to go for the bad side or good side. It's always hard but if you choose a good option then remember now you have both time and money and skills so nothing can stop you if you try to completion and new idea. People are always hungry for new ideas and if you can impress them they will impress you in return.

I don't think they necessarily become lazy, but they could lose focus. When you no longer have to work, it does take effort and dedication to continue working on projects.

Very interesting subject, it's not like that always. Mostly everything depends on person's nature. For example someone may find it amazing to have ability to come in top of business and develop it while others prefer to collect money and spend their life the way they want. But if you see, when person has nothing, he has wish of everything and tries his/her best to get it (not everyone). When they had nothing, they know value of what they own currently, are more careful on their steps, it's stimul for them while people who have everything usually have no stimul to make something or develope.

Some rich people become so lazy because they inherit their parent's wealth without working and some rich people are not because they work night and day just to keep earning money as it is one of the most important things we need in order to survive meaning to buy food, clothes and more.

No being rich is not similar to being lazy. Many people are bot working in their houses because they claim that they are really rich. But what they do is they are focusing in becoming richer person. And there's nothing wrong with that.

That's a ridiculous kind of statement. I mean I'm sure there are a lot of lazy people who were born rich. But the reason why your statement is somewhat ridiculous is because being rich, and having a good job, education and so on are a lot more synonymous with being rich.
It's like you have a warped view of reality.

Most of rich people are still working hard despite of their wealth. It's continous and sometimes only sleep is their time of rest. That's why you at some cases, most rich people are having a family problem due to lack of communications because all majority of their time spend on their work. And even they spend money like hell, it's their money after all. What matters here is they understand what they are doing. Does money make people lazy? Why should it became like that? How money will came over and over again if people will become lazy. And if we are getting decent money out on a certain work, it will boost more our productivity and effort to do that work, right? ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

It is wrong to judge that way, most rich people play their money for more earnings to be earned in the future because they realize that by letting them make life miserable and doing nothing, such thoughts are closely related to a person which is successful, do not waste time and money, while still being able to do business and work I think there is nothing wrong with doing, if you do not want to live miserable life in old age without any grip, most people earn money just spend it buy that is of no benefit.

I am sure that everything depends on a person and sources of capital. I noticed that a person who did not earn money by an own labour did not know the value of money and usually this type o a person lived with pleasure not doing anything what did not give a pleasure. However there is another type of rich peoples who earn money by own labour and this type of rich people do not spend their life only for pleasures. Anyway it is just my observations. I have not been a rich man so I cannot think like a rich person as well as I have not lived as a rich person so I do not know any particulars about their life so I just may suppose how they live.

Laziness if more of an internal quality, rather than a quality that's there based on your wealth. It's a personality trait. Some people cannot sit still doing something, they always need to be involved in a project. Some people can have a lazy personality, but be forced to work because they are poor. So it's more of an individual thing.

Not at all, being rich is the fruit of a person's hard work. Working hard just to get what they want or even become rich does not define laziness.
