[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The issue here is definitional. "Culturally rich" sounds snobby, pretentious, and self-important. If what is meant by that very unfortunate turn of phrase is is actually "well-educated", the responses would be quite different. It's not difficult to understand concepts like education and wealth, whereas "cultured" is often in the eye of the observer when used as a synonym for "superior to others" rather to refer simply to ways of life in a particular society. If the question is whether some people are well-educated but not affluent, the answer is obviously yes. And certainly there are plenty of relatively uneducated but affluent people, too. While education is correlated generally with wealth, the correlation is imperfect and not universally true. [/quote] +1000 This poster understands. [/quote]
