    Honestly IME it’s support others. I’ve found they’re more likely to share and donate things than people who can afford to do way more

      I said something like this in an earlier thread with a similar question. Someone responded to me that for the rich, everything is transactional. I think there’s a lot of truth in that statement, and it’s because the rich can afford to act like this. If you’re not rich, you will have to depend on others to help you out at some times.

    No joke, everything. When you’re so rich every failure and mistake you make can have you fall, only to land on a practically infinite pile of money… No one says no to you, you take credit for the work of others. You get a higher education, but only get a degree after a lot of bribes. These things are what make the ultrarich, inhuman. Separation from consequences.

    Budget. Rich people don’t have to.

      Depends on how one defines “rich.” For me, it means someone whose passive income exceeds their spending. A person like that might only have a net worth of a million or two - and they probably had to be pretty disciplined with budgeting to get there. But not only that, they also need to stay good with it to avoid living beyond their means.

      EDIT: I actually disagree with my own definition now. What I was describing more accurately fits someone who’s either wealthy or financially secure, whereas rich tends to describe someone with high spending - which, unlike being wealthy, may or may not be sustainable in the long run.

    Fixing vehicles, any kind of manual labor, working for 8 hours at a time, and paying taxes.
