why do rich and famous people enjoy taking advantage of people with less money so much?

Question

All they have to do is live life and leave others alone. Why is it so hard for them to do that?
Why must they be such JERKS???

Answer 1

Not all wealthy people take advantage of others. If I quit working tomorrow my income would go on with or without me (income from investments). But I provide social services (specializing in crisis work such as domestic violence and sexual assault). My income goes into accounts for my kids who are all learning the value of working toward the betterment of man kind at home.

It may be accurate to say that some rich people are jerks. It is equally accurate to say that a lot of low income people are greedy, ungrateful and have a sense of entitlement. I've seen it in my work. But I'm sure that doesn't include you.

Answer 2

Money doesn't always accompany character .if your're so smart how come your're not rich ? that my friend is an improper question the kind one might hear from the rich !
the age old prejudice is between the haves and the have nots . it may never change but listen to what Einstein had to say about it."Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value."
Albert Einstein
so i guess it's up to us to learn to be the bigger person !

Answer 3

Because they work hard to get to where they are and they want everyone under them to know that they are rich and famous, or at least rich. The nouveau rich have made the money and need to show it off, or what good is it to have all the money. IT is so much better to take it out on those who don't have it, as they can't show it off to people who have as much or more. The Nouveau rich are not like those that were born with money, those people know how to use their money and how to treat people, they ignore everyone under them, they jusst don't exist.
