Are you sure that's not the availability heuristic talking? People who accumulate wealth gradually over a lifetime of not getting lattes don't make for flashy stories, and by definition aren't flashy themselves. In addition they tend to be older, because that takes time, meaning that in any crowd that skews younger, the wealthy people will likely have taken the maximized earnings path.
- the_cat_kittles 9y agoim basing it on everyone who i know who is rich or poor? its almost always what they do for a living, not how frugal they are. but i do agree that you can be smart with a modest income and end up with alot of money!
