Good Rich People, Bad Rich People, And Poor People
I was listening to someone today that was talking about the stereotypes of being rich and being poor. He was saying that many rich people think that they are "better" people than poor people. And that many poor people think that rich people are just evil and greedy people. But there are actually good rich people and bad rich people, and good poor people and bad poor people.
A bad rich person would be one that is greedy, takes advantage of people's time or money, uses trickery or lying to make money, and things of that nature. This is the boss who cuts hours, jobs, or pay of his employees to save money. Or the business owner that makes fake accounting numbers to get more stock holders in his company. Or it could be the MLM/Network Marketing associate that lies about what a product does, or about how much money someone makes (like themselves) to recruit people. These will never pay off in the long run, and are wrong in and of themselves. People's MLM companies have had many lawsuits because of associates "misrepresenting" things about the product or opportunity.
A good rich person is generous, wants to help others, honest, and hard working. Any good rich person has probably worked hard for their money, or worked hard to grow money they inherited. They are also givers. Bill Gates has many charity organizations and gives a lot of money away, but many would call him greedy and evil. And if you market your product or opportunity in an honest way, your downline will grow continually, you will get referrals, and people will trust you. Building trustworthy relationships is at the core of MLM. Stay away from any leader thats telling you how to make the quick buck off of people.
A bad poor person is a lazy person. This is the person that is always sleeping, barely keeps up on the bills, and won't do anything to improve himself. His family suffers because this person doesn't provide for them, and will not put effort forward to do anything but the minimum required to get by. He spends every penny he makes. This is the guy who drives the 87 Buick junk bucket with chrome wheels and has a $2000 stereo.
A good poor person is someone that is in a poor country, or is disabled, or has chosen to follow a career path that correlates to their passions, but isn't that well paying (like a pastor). We should help these people out and take the opportunities we have to give to them. A good rich person is generous.
Its important in any business venture to not look down on others for what they do, but to look at ourselves and make sure that we are trying to be good rich people. And we should help to educate those that are bad poor and rich people. Good lasts, but bad always fades away and leads to trouble.
