Rich people are nasty?

Quote from SteveNYC:

Do you also enjoy being hurt?

You could escape people but karma is nearly impossible to escape.

Just F.Y.I.

I don't hurt others in ways that karma can't come back and bite me. I don't physically harm others for joy. I have already been hurt by mankind in general and no I don't enjoy it. I just have to get revenge and seek justice on these wrong doers.

I'm a hater? My ego is the same no matter if I'm behind (in front of) my computer or not.

I hope I'm still as funny to you.

Nitro, where is the whole study posted? There is only an excerpt and a few comments. I would like to read the experiements.

There are more nasty people than rich people. Do nice guys grow nasty as they grow wealth? Do rich people become humble and nice when they go bk? People seemed to like Madoff. How about Buffett?

If your wealth came from socially responsible money, are those rich people nasty?

The link to the abstract is at the very top of the link I posted. Which by the way, deals mostly with correlation with wealth and breaking laws. The "nasty" is an interpretation of that act.

All of these studies are statistical in nature. Of course there are counter examples, not to mention that statistical studies are fraught with traps. The idea is to extract statistical truth, not absolute truth. Someone recently told me that suffering is the blow-horn of God. On average, human beings have a tendency to become numb the more money they have, and [become/want] to be very connected to others when things go wrong, financial or otherwise. Creature comforts and material wealth, like it or not, tends to lead to a trivial life for most of us. If we only took that comfort that money gave us and ...

Vigilante. You don't mind doing the dirty work. Yeah, sometimes you gotta make things even. But, if you are dumb about it, then it could backfire on you.

The bullied student either kills him/herself or kills/harms innocent students.

That's dumb vigilantism. Caused more injustice and didn't make any wrongs right.

Nope, I lied, I'm quite the retard.

See my trading thread, I've lost a lot recently. No money making in markets means that you are stupid obviously.

First of all, it's not a lot, at least in absolute dollars. Second of all, a little humility in this business goes a long way. In fact, I'd say that while ego is good in getting yourself hired in a trading role, it's bad for making money.
