They both probably think they need more money.

They both think with their minds. Although a rich man could have been poor once, and would know how to think as a poor man does, a poor man knows only to think like a poor man, if he has always been poor.

I was born poor and accidentally married rich (seriously, I thought I was going to be supporting him through college). As a poor person, you always worry where your next bill payment, meal, etc is going to come from. Credit cards are much more appealing when you don't have money. Most people in this situation either live with what they have and are happy, or spend their whole lives trying to make money, because they see that as the cure for their problems.

Rich people seem more likely to forget the difficulty in pursuing dreams when you don't have the funds. They don't comprehend how wonderful it would be to be able to NOT live from check to check, or how much it can hurt when the postal service gets a day off at the beginning of the month.

Both have their share of smart people, dumb people, criminals and angels. I know poor people that try to act rich, and rich people that want to be "ghetto." Your financial state affects your personality in that it helps to dictate what you worry about, but it does not designate who you are, or who you will become.

They would and wouldnt think alike, i believe a poor man would have more work ethics so he would be more aware of that etc, with the expression a poor man thinks, speaks and eats poor is because a rich man would use fancy lingo in his line of work etc, he would be able to order caviar and most prob have a better education, but i would rather be friends with the poor man who would have more empathy and compassion

A rich man thinks about how to keep his money, a poor man thinks about how to get his money.

A rich man thinks he is not rich enough and a poor man thinks about how he can become rich..

A 'rich man' thinks where to spend, but a 'poor man' thinks where NOT to!!!

I believe they both think with their brains. Unless you are poor
or rich, no one knows.

I've thought about that, one time i saw 2 men that looked like twins, crossing the street on different sides of the street, one was in tattered dress & the other was well dressed-------i think one THOUGHT is education because they both may have bad, childhoods, rich can have drinking problems??? probably $$$$$$ actually, i saw a tall handsome man that was homeless in a St Louis bus station, many years ago, i've never stop wondering. thanks for a Great Question, i've been asking it for yrs!!!!

That,s why Poor Men are Poor Men --- Rich Men think -- I am so Important -- ***** the Rest of them ------ then they end up Lonely and Dissapointed
