If you are among the people that look at friends status before you help; you are indirectly creating problems for yourself. Who told you average/poor friends can't help you in future.

For Instance: An average/poor man asked his rich friend (Smith) for an assistance, Smith refused to assist and gave him excuses. Another friend of Smith is Kunle and Kunle is richer than Smith. On that same day, Kunle celebrated his birthday and Smith bought an expensive gift for Kunle.

When asked why he didn't assist his poor friend, Smith said he will gain more from his rich friend. That, he can't gain from his poor friend.

What many rich people don't know is that; when the majority of rich people ran into a serious problem/health issues, majority of friends that will mostly be around to assist are average/poor people. You may not likely see many rich friends around. Mostly, friends that are richer than you can easily betray and surprise you badly; also they can't sacrifice more for you than average/poor friends.

Question:
Have you ever ran into a serious problem or some issues. If Yes, tell us who stood by you during that time. Is it your rich friends or average/poor friends?

If you have the power to help, never ignore or fail to assist an average/poor friends that are loyal to you or friends that have never created a problem for you.

Please Note: There are friends that are richer than you which can fight for you to the last but they are not many. When problems comes or short of cash, rich friends will disappear.

What's your reaction to this?

Life no balance
Majority of rich friends don't know that life is a cycle, tables do turn
i have numerous rich friends that have laughed/ooked down on me today, but i will take that as a challenge cause my tomorrow will be better than today.

So very true I agree with all your wrote .

some rich people have assisted me on nairaland,especially one special man,i can donate my kidney for him if need arises,but i know it will never be his portion.

not all rich people look down on people like us,some of them dont just understand what it feels like eating just ones in a day.

i pray that GOD puts me in a position to help others.it is well.

OP, don't give the impression that poverty make people more humane as being mean or generous resides in the hearts of both the rich and the poor.

One reason why the rich don’t help the poor is the irritating entitlement mentality poor people seem to have.They expect you to always help them
