[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]His family was always jealous of our money and believed it much more than we really had. As if just being upper middle class made you extremely wealthy when in reality it isn't that different from middle class. I think this played a large part in our marriage's downfall although on the most prevalent issue. He ended up abusing my money with no repercussions from his family. Took out credit cards without telling me and ran us into debt. Once the sister was saying she was really busy with his mom and I offered to help and she showed me all the projects she wanted me to fund. She lived in the home at no expense to take care of the parents. Also asked me to fund a trip overseas. I had meant maybe I can get my husband to call more and send care packages. The bigger issues were that he couldn't relate to any of my friends. He loved the lifestyle and thought our friends were nice but couldn't converse well and make any really strong friends. He also just had a lot of bad habits that I didn't pick up on during the courtship and his mind started to deteriorate as he grew older. Maybe this could happen to anyone but eventually found out he had a lot of mental health issues. So the biggest issue I've found is that [b]a lot of poorer people have mental health issues [/b]which makes marriage difficult. This also happened to another friend of mine and I've now seen how many adopted children from poorer families have mental health issues so these seems to be a recurring trend during my lifetime.[/quote] This actually isn’t the case. Mental health problems are distributed fairly evenly among the classes. [/quote] There is no way they are evenly distributed. I'll have to do some sleuthing to prove but just common sense and general reading and history has proved this wrong. Maybe some people don't have the means to get help but there is no way that upper middle class people have the same amount and intensity of mental health problems as the lower classes.[/quote] This isn’t true at all. Studies also show that upper middle class kids are far more likely to do drugs than poor and working class kids. You’re experiencing cognitive dissonance which is why it’s Hard for you to believe. I also believe you’re a troll.[/quote] Not a troll. And basic real estate proves that poor neighborhoods have more crime and are more unsafe. Not desirable. [/quote] I was responding to the part on poor people more likely to have mental illness. Thats a lie. And it's clear you have a deep hatred for poor people. [/quote] The rich need reasons to justify their place above the poor. Whether it's race, good neighborhoods, addiction, class, etc. Fortunately or unfortunately, the rain falls on the just and unjust and human nature is consistent across income bands.[/quote]
