He was so right when he said that. I know many who are doing well...
...but are jealous of others. I have a sister who talks about rich people as if they all stole something from her but she actually lives better than most of the world. She is not well off by any means but she owns her little house and she has a decent car that is as good as most of the family has. She made a lot of bad decisions in her life but also got a lot of help over the years - especially from my mom. Whenever she talks about all those rich people and how bad they are I always flippantly say "Yep, you know how us rich people are." She tells us how lucky my wife and I are and I reply, "Well, you know I was born into that rich family." She just goes on with her rant about how unfair life is without acknowledging what I said.
