"8 Signs the Rich Have WAY Too Much Money
Our country is increasingly being turned into a plaything for the ultra-rich.
August 9, 2013 |




The statistics about wealth inequality in this country are both astonishing and alarming. But statistics can’t tell the entire story if they’re presented in isolation. Our country is increasingly being turned into a plaything for the ultra-rich.

Here are seven signs that the ultra-wealthy Americans have way too much money.

Never met anyone who thought they were "rich enough".
And I know some really rich people.

I would really like a bunch of money, but I'm afraid I would spiral, as do most people and everyone I've ever met that were rich monetarily. That's my own personal results, but it also doesn't mean I hate them for it either.

I am not rich enough, but I am certainly poor enough.

I here ya!

When you have too much fuel and not enough air then you're too rich... But seriously.

Earning a living is part of living life but if I didn't have friends and family a huge part of my personal wealth would be missing. Learning something new everyday and using my knowledge and experience to help others is another portion of my personal bank account. Doing what is right, not what is easy or popular, sometimes that means telling someone they are wrong or being lazy, other times it means helping someone who truly has done all they can but still need help. Recognizing when you are wrong and making things right again, being humble when corrections are due. All these things increase my personal wealth and I'd be a lot wealthier if I didn't stray every so often.

All ya'lls replies are bloody well outstanding! Double

I'm having cocktails with a new millionaire tonight back here in Rhinelander, WI (the powerball winner from MN is a life long friend). I spoke with him a few times since he came forward last Thursday. More $$$ than he would ever know what to do with, but I am hoping it doesn't change him that much. Loads of character already and a great person, hopefully he holds on to his humility.
