[QUOTE="Cowboy Mac, post: 1795525, member: 59074"] I can't believe how short sighted YOUR statement is. You must think that people of higher incomes are a different degree of person. The baser people of lower incomes could never reach that status if they just worked hard, right? Because they weren't born with the Successful Gene. You should pick up a book and read once in a while. Start with the biography of pretty much any successful person and you will see that many of them had to work against the odds. You wonder why these cases of "success" are so rare compared to the amount of "failures" in the world (success is relative by the way)? It's because people are lazy. They would rather do the same old thing for the rest of their lives than work hard and claw their way out of the hole. They would rather COPE with how sad their life is (stuffing themselves with pizza, booze, drugs, watching tv) than THRIVE in their environment and reach their true potential (educating themselves, reading, meditating). Of course people come into this world with different situations. But, we do the best we can with the cards we're dealt. If that's not the best measure of a man, I don't know what is. [/QUOTE]
