maclatunji:

Isn't the bolded what "I gonna-wanna Americanism" is all about? cheesy

Nah.
I admire Americans because they create more stuff than anybody else. Microsoft, Apple, Disney, etc. They're a nation of makers and doers.
However, not all the makers get paid. A good number of riches were made by smooth-talking smart alecks, off the back of true hardworking innovators.

Imagine a Mitt Romney saying 'I didn't go to Vietnam because I was too important' and the average American sees nothing wrong with that

I am satisfied that 100% of those rules plus extra ones had always ruled my life. Little wonder I crossed that mark at just 25yrs of age, never to go back again.

What drives the rich to make more money is different from what drives the rich, the poor man sees making money as a struggle or calls it hustle as the case may be whilst the rich see it as fun and derive pleasure in doing what it takes...shikina

Okija_juju: Another Way Rich People Think Differently from ordinary People is their Eating Habit: A rich man is concerned about things like table manners, using the right cutlery for the appropiate food. eg is the Spoon settings at a rich mans restaurant. There are 5 spoons and 5 forks for different foods and non can be used for the other.. While a Poor Man would eat Garri with his bare hands, A rich man would use fork and Knife.
I totally beg to disagree with you. I can choose to eat eba or pounded yam with my bare hands and will most definitely not affect my ability to get rich or stay richer. That, in my opinion is basic cultural diversity and has nothing with being rich or poor.

WHAT!!!! Did you read the threads title?!

WAYS RICH PEOPLE THINK DIFFERENTLY FROM THE POOR.

When I was poor, I never could quite understand why I had to hold my fork in my left hand (as I obviously wasnt left handed and my knife in my right) and the case wasnt reverse for lefty's.. I never understood the difference between a salad fork, a dinner fork, a fish fork, a soup spoon etc.. Why not just use the same darn spoon for all.? The rich call it table manners, the poor call it unneccessary gra gra.

Now I am in a restaurant and see this guy eating GARRI with Ogbono soup with his bare hands. that shiit was just ghetto!! Like nigga get a GARRI spoon or GARRI fork for christ sakes!! Thats how the rich differ from the poor eating habit wise.

Rich people don't think differently from ordinary people. They like to put a spin on things, like they are mavericks or something. Fat chance. They just have some advantage or opportunity that's not available to everyone else. Many times it is not of their own doing, just circumstance that puts them in a position to make money.

Rich people also don't believe in fairness and equity. Always willing to go the extra mile, even dishonestly. What you would normally find reprehensible, or morally impossible, rich people have no problem doing it.

Imagine that woman blaming the middle class for drinking and socializing. Who throws elaborate and expensive parties more than rich people?
sorry for your mentality

You can do business with other people's money without putting a dime of your own, credit facilities are a clear example. Do you know about Private Placement Programmes and High Yield bullet alternative Investments ? Knowledge makes the difference

Spoken like a true middle class, life isn't fair and the rich know this, when the rich throw parties, trust me its for business purposes, they are with like minds and intend to mingle with new like minds for the purpose of discussing new acquisitions, pending business deals and growing their business empire. They dont have the time to drown their sorrows in a couple of beers at the pub or be surrounded by gloom, or people who suck up to them which is what the middle class is all about all the time.
No offence, i totally agree 1billion and 1 percent with what Siebold wrote, he said the whole truth. I am not rich yet, but i know i would be some day, i would also live below my means in luxurious comfort and have some king's ransom stash in some place somewhere.
