For example:
- Poor pay interest in credit card, rich pay credit card instantly and get the rewards.
- Poor pay high prices for small items, rich pay high price for bulk items which in turn costs less overall per quality.
- Poor rent, rich own houses and put monthly payment into equity.
- Poor borrow money paying interest on student loans, rich go to best school with no debt at the end.
- Poor tend to eat worse and have more health problems than rich which ends up costing more.

Some items paid over time end up costing twice as much. Bottom line is poor people pay a lot more than rich people and many times go into bankrupcy just trying to live normally. A rich person looks at the poor person’s monthly rent and yearly income and wonder why the person can’t live. It’s because the cost to poor people, that rich people do not have to go through, is so great that it cripples them.

If, after I graduate and I go to school in New York, would it even be remotely possible to become a professional actress without being rich?

Also, do you have any suggestions for getting noticed? I am involved in all of the school plays and involved in another drama club outside of school. Is there anything I can do to REALLY get noticed?

I don’t think simply “working hard” can make me that rich. I see many people work so hard that it even threatens their health, but most of them get old and die even before reaching the 1/50 of the richness of the above people.

There must be something.

Is becoming rich confined to a certain careers, specially to the “business” sector, like real estates, being the head of the grocery store, owner of the firm, etc.? What careers that make them super rich?

And do you think the manufacturing career is in fact, does not make much money and does not make the people become super rich?

Please tell me.

So what is the mentality that makes them work for more money?

When can one say they are rich/wealthy?
