rich & hated vs. poor & loved

Which would you rather be?



(IMHO, don't answer too quickly, as a number of American lotto winners felt their lives were actually happier before.)

rich = lack of passion (imo). I'd rather have passion for my work and EARN my money.

I read an issue of Forbes recently looking at the richest people in the world. The majority on the list worked hard to get to where they are today and very little were heirs/heiresses.

But the initial question of this topic was referring to a lottery win. Or maybe I just got the wrong impression. I was building from that either way.

I don't know .. i'm not really fussed whether people "like" me or not, so I guess if I was rich i still wouldn't care what people thought. RICH! fuck being poor!
