  Getting sick and tired of being the masses of working class...kind of feel left out in a society that worship wealth and babes

  So is it possible for all to be rich or only a minority will be living the high life of the rich and the rest like us observers for eternity:(

  Talk to a china guy who seems to be resigned to his fate as part of a working class getting minimum wage once he returned to china and we thought PRC is the new boom land to make it big!

  whether you are rich or not is defined by contrasting with others. so cannot all be rich.

  Money is the source of alll our problems.....if you have money like bill gates and left 5% to the kids which is 3-4 billions ..talk about self reliance for rich kids :)

  Born in a rich family like the gates or be a self starter ....both routes again closed for the majority of the populace.....20% or even less at the top leaving us as viwers of greed and passion

  can we all be rich? yes. is a person who earns $800/month rich? yes, depends on how you all see it. need to think, is he happy, does he have all he needs and nothing else? is a person who earns $5k/month rich? what about a billionaire? well just last week i read about a billionaire who commit suicide. it's mostly a matter of perspective, i can feel so broke with $100k in the bank and i can feel top of the world happiness even with $10 bucks left, i can only speak for myself.

  My question is how old are you? Still studying?

  How rich do you want to be?

  Millionaire? Difficult, do your sums and see. How much you earn per month, and multiply that by 10 years, 20 years and put in like a 10% increase a year. That amount what you get if you don't eat or spend anything.

  Well-to-do, meaning comfortable? That is possible, but of course everyone has a different level of comfort.

  Better to work towards a stable life, and that you are happy.

  To be rich requires non-stop hardwork (don't care about your education level) if you are willing to work from 5am till 11pm, everyday, always looking for opportunity, you can be rich. Be careful of get-rich schemes, there is no such thing.

  Although we can say it like that, let's be practical and face it.

  You need to have more money to survive in this world, to prepare for the unprepared.

  Just earn enough to live and get by, and appreciate the simpler things in life. There's a lot more to life than gaining material possessions =)

  rich?

  i believe we can all live comfortable lives...that is if we can eliminate racism and selfishness, and have a kampong spirit...

  No, cos like hisoka said, it's relative to others. But we can be richer than what we are currently.  The same thought motivates some but puts others in misery....one word, greed.

  Conversely, if we remind ourselves that we could be poorer, jobless - a rather remote possibility to some - then things appear in a very different light.  Appreciate things we already have - good health for instance,  then nobody cares if some are rich enough to buy a kidney, or even 2. Boy am i glad to have 2 good ones....
