Andrew Ross Sorkin’s column today makes Wall Street honchos sound like spoiled kids; they went for Obama because he seemed like their kind of guy, then turned on him with a vengeance because they think he’s looking at them funny.
Based on what I know, that’s about right.
...
You know, one might have thought that having all the money in the world would make people less petty, less concerned about whether they feel that they’re in the in-group. But nooooo [/Belushi]
That last paragraph got some interesting responses.
I don't think so. What else except intense feelings of inadequacy would make a person fight jealously for their third billion after earning the first two?
you don't know many rich people huh?
Unfortunately, a lot of people who have all the money in the world are ignorant about all life matters other than money, and assume they are superior because of their financial wealth. And because they don't have to deal with everyday life like the rest of us, they have plenty of time to fret and whine and complain when things don't go exactly as they want.
