[E. Pluribus Unum]

It's really quite simple.

Wealth is nothing more than unspent money.

If you spend every cent you get your hands on and more, you will never have wealth.

And then you will be able to call anyone who doesn't spend every cent and more "the rich" who "didn't make that wealth themselves. Somebody else made that happen."

Here's the thing too. These people didn't piss their money away in their teens and 20s partying and buying more than what they can afford. They probably held off on going to college, lived in a crappy studio apt eating canned and boxed food.

Now they're in their 30s and 40s, while their peers who partied in their younger years are going through tough times.
