[quote=Anonymous]People are not rich because other people who also want to be rich have found good ways to get them to part with their money. Growing up we were rich but 3/4 of the things that people spend their money on just were not relevant. We had a big house but my mother certainly did not spend 50K on a kitchen remodel to get the latest designer dishwasher or concrete counter top. Her big expenses were things like new drapes or wallpaper (yuck I know). We had a really nice TV in the family room but it would have never occurred to anyone to put one in several rooms and spend a few thousand on each so they were plasma screens. College and graduate school did not cost hundreds of thousands of dollars so no one walked away with massive debt. [/quote]
