Have you ever noticed people with less money usually complain less than those with more?
Jeez, Nichol, what universe are you living in? Do you have a poverty & scarcity mindset & consciousness? You must have a poverty consciousness to even compose such a question! Really, c'mon now! You MUST HATE money & wealth. You are quite happy being po'....
It is people w/less money who complain more. They kvetch about how expensive things are, how are they going to pay the bills, put food on the table, & worrying about the increase of general cost of living. They complain how they are getting less for what they pay. They are the ones who are worried about rising mortgages or rents, wondering if they are going to become homeless or worse.
They worry if they are to be sick, how would they pay their insurance or if they don't have insurance, having to do without medical care. They have to worry about the safety of their neighborhoods because they can't afford to live in better neighborhoods as such neighborhoods are beyond their socioeconomic reach. They kvetch about their children receiving inferior education from inferior schools which reduces their children's future chances of attending better colleges. They further complain about a possibility of being evicted from their apartments if rents increase-hence homelessness.
They are worried if they lose their jobs for they are 1/4 to 1/2 a paycheck away from homelessness. They worry because they are slaves to their boss & other life circumstances. They are in a precarious situation where they are owned by bosses, building managers, & others who are more socioeconomically powerful than they are. They worry if situations turn to the worst, will they & their families be homeless on the streets.
It is those w/LESS money who complain THE MOST. Those w/MORE, EVEN THE MOST money are the ones who complain the least or not at all. After all, those w/MORE & THE MOST money are owners of their lives. As money is no object, they can live in the best neighborhoods, have the best health/medical care, can afford the best quality education for their children, leave a socioeconomic legacy to their children, don't have to worry about changing socioeconomic circumstances, are financially independent, & can travel anywhere in the world they darn well please........In essence, they have the life that those w/less money WISH THEY had.
P.S. This question denotes envy. It's toxic to be envious, it isn't becoming.
No, I haven't noticed that poor people are happier than rich people.
People with no money usually live in high crime neighborhoods and they're always complaining about what is or isn't being done about it.
There have always been those who have tried to sell poverty as being a "virtue" of some kind. No money = all problems!
Anyone who doesn't know where their next meal is going to come from, just had their lights turned off, and there is an eviction note attached to the front door is most likely complaining about a lot of things! If you throw some kids into the mix it gets even worse.
Naturally one who strives for great achievement has more stress in his or her life than one who chooses the lifestyle of a pigeon waiting for generous people to throw them some bread crumbs.
Anyone can get "3 hots and a cot" in jail and have someone tell them how long they can stand in the sunshine.
When you're the "driver" and not a "passenger" in your life making decisions sometimes can be challenging. Money just makes you more of who you already were. It's not a "curse" to be rich!
