You're so far out of synch with reality I'm starting to wonder if you've got an oculus rift glued to your face.
Let's look at this statement from your link.
And even stranger, it implies that money earned is a perfect indicator of a person's value to society -- if you're broke, it must mean you're a loser who contributes nothing to anyone's life.
The article itself is a lie.
Nobody has said that your value is less just because you don't earn alot of money. Guess what you are priceless.
What annoys me is when people who refuse to work as hard and take as much risks as the ones who do so, and succeeded, also expects those ones to share their wealth.
And then condemn them for refusing to do so, and also, try to claim that they had a luckier or more fortunate life, blah blah blah.
My mom didn't have a luckier or more fortunate life. She had the worst possible child labouring life for a child. She made good money in the end, because she swore to herself she never wanted to be poor like her parents. So she chose to do whatever it takes to make lots of money.
So, I'd say, the one spewing lies is you. That rich people are rich just because of what? Better privileged upbringing? Not by their own efforts to chase money? Those are lies.
Like you condemn people for chasing money. But to be rich is to chase money. If you don't chase money, then you choose helping others as a career, like a nurse, which is fine, which isn't gonna make you a millionaire, but nothing wrong with that, as money can't buy happiness and contentment, money can buy you physical comforts, that's all, until the nurse who personally CHOSE not to chase money condemn those who chase money, that they do not use their money to share with those who make less.
Now that is what is ridiculous! Because, as I said, end of the day, you WANT their money to help others. Why not chase the money yourself in the first place so you have your own money to give others who needs it? You CHOSE not to chase money. It's your choice. But don't make it look like those who did chase money, did it effortlessly and so they should give away all their hard earnings.
And I think the gist of what I am trying to say is. You don't have to chase money to be successful. Success is relative to each individual on what is meaningful to them in life. But people who chase money have to make sacrifices to get those money.
Same with people who don't chase money, usually sacrifice money for other things more meaningful to them.
But it's just irks me when people who didn't specifically make their life goal to chase money, suddenly feel entitled to other people's money, the specific ones who made their life goal to chase money, the ones who don't believe in chasing money, feels entitled to the money other people who chase money made. That is like, seriously WTF!
