So, are there really any problems with some or all rich people, and if so, what are they and whose problems are they?
Of course the answer is likely to be, 'yes'. After all, there are some problems with all of us; so why would that not also apply to rich people?
What might be different, is what 'rich people see as their problems', and what the rest of us, looking in on them, perceive as 'the problems with them.'
Some of these problems will not be common to all 'rich people', sometimes depending on their amount of wealth and how it is accumulated or redistributed.
Some, however, will be common, such as what might be called 'stereotypical perceptions of rich people.'
Many poor or average people do not spend much of their lives pondering the problems of rich people.
They have not got the time to do so, as they are too busy finding or maintaining ways of making their own living and getting by.
Being on the outside looking in, many poor and average people do look on at how rich people are able to indulge luxuriantly in 'the good life.'
How they are able to seemingly acquire the best of every or most commodity.
The 'to die for' houses, mansions, cars, planes, boats, and frequent the most expensive hotels, holiday resorts.
And, more recently, buy themselves a seat on a spacecraft to move out of Earth's orbit, just to get an ' out-of-this-world view' of the home planet which so many of them are rapidly degrading to accumulate and maintain their wealth from.
Many of us are willing to take a 'live and let's live' approach about rich people. Sometimes depending on how rich they are, what is the source of their wealth, and how they use their wealth.
To be continued!
