See Why You Must Resist Thetemptation Of Getting Rich by simdam500(m): 12:26pm On Mar 26, 2013
This should be in the d inspirational Forum but since there's none.

Read this before you get veryrich or very famous:
So you really want to get veryrich and famous? Its good though, but I think it’s over hyped. People rarely talk about the downside of it all. I would be listing the downsides of getting rich that I think you should consider before you move on to be wealthy – if you would still want to after this article.
Getting very rich will get you some great stuffs like:
1. Holidays
2. Travels
3. Private Jet
4. Mansion
5. Funding for your passion
6. Gold teeth
7. Tattoos all over your body
8. Good health care
9. Great Outfit
10. Respect
Feel free to substitute your own desires and illusions. Personally, I’d love to buy a growing third world country and sell it when it becomes a first world country!
Now let’s get down to the pros and cons; having a lot of money has a number of disadvantages especially if you didn’t pass through poverty, struggle and suffering to get it. If your wealth came over night, like inheriting the wealth of a deadloved one, then the drawbacks am about to list willbe more pronounced in your life:
1. Die young: We’ve seen curtcobain shoot himself, Whitney Houston take drugs until she drowned in a bathub, Michael Jackson, Private Jet Plane crashes etc. Only the rich can afford to be taking such heavily expensive hard drugsthat could trigger depression and in turn suicide when they are not taken. Only the rich ride in private jets, if it crashes like we’ve sometimes seen, only the rich die. We watched Dagrin get drunk in a night club and attempt to drive himself back home late at nightin his new car, you know the end of the story – he crashedand died. If he wasn’t rich, he wouldn’t be driving a car in the first place. Let alone driving home late at night, drunk.
2. Loss of Peace: Money may take away your peace. You are always after who wants tocheat you in business and who isn’t. You have armed body guard around you and around your house always. This is even more frustrating for your children. As they cantmix freely with other children and can’t tell why. They could get kidnapped.
If you aren’t stingingly rich, your neighbors won’t be a threat to your life. They don’t have to.
1. End of your goals and ambitions: Children born into money and people who got so rich along the way see with their own eyes as their dreams disappear. This leaves them no purpose to live for. No joy of struggle and victory which is inherent in humans. This lack may cause our next point.
2. Imbecility/Stupidity/Low IQ/Madness: Have you ever heard about crazy th i ngs super rich people do? Buying a yatch for as much as $20m .Would they abandon their house and live in a boat? What does it make them? Columbus J . No dreams, so children of super rich people find themselves doing crazy things like drawing tattoos all over their body, looking for trouble everywhere and so on, developing stupid phobia that was never there.
3. Being Judged unfairly: Most poor people think all rich people cheated them. You are in this category so when something bad happens to you, be ready to have sadistsin their millions. Most People are tempted to think you are “lucky” or that your money fell from the sk i es. Or that you owe it to humanity to help them since you now have more money than them.
4. Someone is richer than you:La la la la, it never ends, you will always see someone richer than you. It’s a fault you’ll never be able to fix.
5. You’ll never get that awesome feeling of being in want and struggle, then finallygetting the solution that what you desire. It’s a fulfilling desire you’ll never ever get again, except you kill yourselfand start all over again! Which is what many do.
6. Suicide: everything becomesboring so you are tempted most of the times to kill yourself out of depression or loneliness of living in a large well fortified lonely mansion with no neighbours.
7. Lack of true friends: all you ever get is business partnersand false friends who love you for your money. No real friends again.
8. Confusion: buy a new house, sell it, buy another, crumble it, build another. Live a little while there, then sell it and start all over again in another state J You are forever confused because you can do almost anything you want, the opportunity costdoes not mean anything to you again
9. Dreams and night mares
But don’t get it twisted people;getting wealthy the right way and time is priceless, don’t trade it for anything! Yes, yesI know and have said money is not everything, but somehow it feels better cryingin a private jet than on a bicycle :O
