    Exactly. Although it is easy for me to generalize when I see such shitty behavior from rich people so often. I even have relatives who have 14 cars, give nothing to charity, and bitch about paying taxes. They disgust me.

      Y’know, Sometimes the same behavior can exist within the poor people too. I have a cousin whose always do what rich people does, despite he’s bragging about how corrupted rich people’s are. He always buy lots of expensive gaming equipment whenever he can (basically when he get enough money, from the jobs which he’s often complain), but never use his money properly for goods (he also a smokers btw). And just like rich people, he have lots of arguments to justify his lavish lifestyle to became “cool gamer” (he’s not a content creator, and also unemployed). His family sometimes complaining about his way of life that’s not very productive, but again . . . He always have cope mechanism for such good criticism.

      Idk if he’s still a poor or a rich person now, but what I see is something in the middle, worse than rich people themselves

        Whoosh.

        You somehow think my issue with rich people is they spend money. You just described someone who is an idiot with money, which has nothing to do with the point.

          My bad mate, It just that my cousin is such a dumbass that even if someone (like you) telling about the issues, he’s tackle down with repetitive explanation of “they’re/you’re just paid” (like all people, doesn’t matter if they’re rich or poor, are paid to maintain injustice). I really hate his opinion really . . . I know what your point means, is that it constantly make me remember that apathetic loser; Complaining other people’s complain (it mean everything to him, either critics or opinion)

          Again, sorry for getting out of context🙏
