One of the worst things about having a lot of money is that a lot of people tend to spend it on whatever passes their fancy. Sure, boats and nice houses are all well and good, but they don't really get you anywhere in the long run.
For example, I've heard of a lot of people who win the lottery who just spend it on whatever instead of making a budget plan or investing some of it into a savings bond or something along those lines.
There is also the notion that once you have this large amount of money, you no longer have to work. You could live off your winnings for the rest of your life, if you wanted to. This can only occur if you put effort into it and budget your money accordingly. I'm not sure if you ever watched Yu-Gi-Oh! as a kid, but did Seto Kaiba stop working just because he was one of the world's richest men? No. He kept working to try, in his own way, to make the world a better place for orphaned children.
I also have heard of a lot of people who spend their money selfishly. They don't give any to their friends or family, or more importantly, they don't give much to worthy charities. I know I'm not one to preach about this, but there are a lot of people outside of our social circles who need our help.
I hope this helps, but really, you should be thinking of this on your own.

If your rich, people will start dis-respecting you, trying to steel your stuff, stepping on your new shoes. Doing whatever they can t give you a bad time, just because they're jealous.
P.S. I dont think anybody has a lot of time to write 250-500 words. You might want to take that out.

you should maybe do this in a search website collecting information. if you do that you could collect notes-then easily create an essay! ;D
