Almost universally.

An a-hole with money is still just an a-hole in my book.

It used to be money was the result of success which was the result of being a smart, dedicated and disciplined person. It meant something. Not anymore.

Now it just means a person happened to be dumb lucky. I don't really respect it. Certainly not ostentatious displays of it.

I've been "rich" and I've been "poor". Yea, "rich" is easier but honestly, it's the character of a person that matters, ultimately.

Wouldn't mind being just a little richer right now though, but if I don't get to be I can deal. My 944 is fine.
