Why Do the Poor Hate the Rich?

 “Rich people are selfish! They are insensitive. They wake up during the day and go to the office, act as bosses and look one eye on the poor! " The dialogue quote may be familiar to you.

Yes, that is mostly what the poor think of the rich. With all the luxurious life that the rich have, no doubt they have received criticism from the common people. Especially in today's digital era, many rich people show off their royal lifestyle through social media, such as Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.

Why Do the Poor Hate the Rich?

Actually, it cannot be said that all of them are good, rich or poor. And it can't be said that all of them are evil. “We hate arrogant rich people, we hate arrogant poor people more. We love the humble man, we love the humble rich more. " So said Bob Sadino, a successful entrepreneur who started his business from scratch.

The cause of the poor to hate the rich could be because of their different thinking, mental blocking, and different daily habits. Some of the reviews below will invite you to think about why poor people hate rich people and how to overcome them.

1. Differences in Thinking and Perspectives

Research conducted by personal finance expert named Farnoosh Torabi with a certified psychologist and financial planner, Brad Klontz may be able to answer the question, "Why do poor people hate rich people?"

The two well-known experts found an indication why the poor hate the rich. According to their research, the factor of dislike of the rich actually narrows the possibility of obtaining property and entering the upper class. Usually, the negative sentiments of the poor towards the rich appear and are embedded since childhood.

"If you believe that money is a bad thing and that rich people are bad, then your chances of getting rich will pass you by," says Brad Klontz. This means that when someone sees a rich person as an evil person, he is actually pressing himself not to be a part of that person.

Then how to solve it? It's easy, stay away from thoughts and points of view that all rich people are bad because maybe you are a good person who will be the next rich person in the future.

2. Mental Block

A second opinion on why the poor hate the rich is discussed by Randy Gage, an American author in his book, "Why You're Dumb, Sick and Broke and How to Get Smart, Healthy an Rich".

Gage tries to explain that in fact there are evil viruses that make a person unable to become rich. This virus forms a mental block that limits a person's greatness.

Try to imagine for a moment when a child is told by his mother, "Look at them, son, they are very rich people, have luxurious houses, large yards, nice cars, but their lives are not happy."

Perhaps, the purpose of a mother saying things like this is so that a child is not oriented towards wealth, but the mother forgets that words like the one above are a kind of virus that will become a mental block which essentially, "wealth doesn't make one's life happy".

The danger is again, when the mental block is embedded and stored in the subconscious. Of course this can hinder him. It's better to avoid the mental block earlier by saying, "It's good to be rich, have a lot of money, can open jobs and help people who don't have it," How? Looks better, right?

3. Differences in habits in everyday life
