Yes! They do! Iâve been trying to get that point to stick and people just donât follow.
The president thinks insurance costs $12 a year.
My old bossâs sister didnât think we should be paid enough to afford smart phones because (her words) âYou peasants work for us, peasants donât deserve enough money for those things.â
I was once invited to a dinner event. Turns out there was a raffle. I mentioned that if I had known Iâd have stopped at the bank for some cash. Nothing was said, but the âYou donât carry a minimum $200 everywhere?â was felt in the body language of everyone within 50 feet.
Old boss would get KFC every day. He was hospitalized and had to have bits of intestine removed. First day back he was eating KFC because âWell the doctor fixed everything, so why not?â
If old boss didnât take home a million dollars in a month the company was âHaving a bad time of things.â Thatâs not sales, or total gain, thatâs his paycheck. He owned the building so the company he owned that operated inside the building paid him $33,000 a month, and that didnât count towards his paycheck. Monthly, his company would pay him rent greater than what he was paying me yearly, and it was so little to him that he didnât count it as income.
To a rich person, something punishable by a fine is just a thing you have to pay for permission to do. You want to go to the movies? Sure thatâs $8 a person. You want to park in the fire zone? Sure, thatâs $750 for parking. No big deal.
Rich people live in such a different place than everyone else.
