“I don’t know what they want from me, It’s like the more money we come across, the more problems we see.” – Notorious B.I.G
Certainly, at some point you have heard the phrase, “more money, more problems”. First and foremost, I’m not a millionaire nor do I pretend to be. However, I have to laugh when people have said this to me in the past. Really, how hard can it be to have money in the bank and know your future is reasonably secure? The problem is that while you are accumulating this great wealth certain things will naturally attach themselves to you.
Simply put, everyone and everything is looking for increase in their life. There is nothing wrong with that but not everyone and everything is positive. For example, having money probably can get you a table on Friday night at the best steakhouse in town. However, it can also open the door to better and more addictive drugs, not to mention leaches. On top of that, you are now going to attract considerably more jealousy and envy from the people you know.
The TRUTH is I would much rather deal with begrudging co-workers or country club members than worrying about feeding my family tomorrow. How about you? Maybe being poor you have less problems but they are much more severe than the rich person’s are. So next time someone tells you wealth isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, consider the source.
