DesMoinesRegister.com | Opinion: "Being rich: An OK goal
As the gap between the 'rich' and the 'poor' continues to increase, several thoughts come to mind.
I remember when those 'without' used to admire those 'with.' I remember when those 'without' aspired to be like those 'with.' I remember the media didn't make a big deal out of the difference.
As years go by, this gap between incomes and net worth will continue to widen due to the following fact:
Rich people continue to do what makes them rich, and poor people continue to do what makes them poor. Imagine that. That is why no matter what is done to try to make everyone the same, it will never happen.
A wise man once told me, 'Young man, if you never get around to planting any seeds, how do you ever expect to live off of the harvest?'
