From responses tp other questions I've read most people say they want to see their relatives and that is the end of their answers. But when most people are alive they try everything in their power to get away from their relatives. Then all of sudden when they die they get the notion they want to spend eternity with them. If heaven is only a family reunion, the buffet better be excellent.

I don't know. If you read the bible is doesn't say that anyone will get to see their family. It says that God will establish a new heaven on earth, and raise the dead. Jesus even says that there is no marriage in heaven, so I don't know why they say that.
"You are mistaken, not understanding the Scriptures, or the power of God. "For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. (Matthew 22:29-30)

The reason why when it is people's time to go to heaven, the reason why people want to go is, Because in heaven there will be no more judging, and no more tears. The bible talks about forgiveness and when in heaven all our sins will be forgiven and so nobody will have remembered any sins and so it will be like starting all over. We will be in such joy, and love that nothing on earth i doubt will be remembered. Oh it will be so awesome! I can't wait to see my Jesus!

Mainly because no one wants to experience any of the tortures in Hell.
As for Heaven is for rich people, it's the first time I heard that. And that's rather hilarious. Wonder how many rich people abuse and take advantages of their so called 'power'.

Jesus Christ will be the light there and we shall sing and praise God for eternity.
John 14:2 - In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. 4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. 5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. 7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.

Because I will get to see Jesus and the angels along with bringing worship to God and walking the streets of gold plus seeing the mansions that Jesus talked about in the Bible.

Well, you've made a good point, BUT ! Why do people want to go to heaven so badly ? : Because they have experienced a little taste of what it could be, loving and kind and no HATE and no pain,, and PEACE and LOVE. Don't you want to look forward to that ? !!! ? I do...
