[QUOTE="astalavista_baby, post: 377152, member: 108"] My opinion is that most people are like that. I mean, when they are poor, they come looking for you for whatever reason that is. When they get richer, they start forgetting about you. However, I have seen grateful people, especially contractors, thanking their good friends in certain ways for helping them go through their rough times. Now that they earn big time, they will not forget to send some hampers every year. I mean, everyone dreams to get richer. Not that they want to but this is just how the world is today. The people living in the world today are all materialistic. Try see what we do everyday and try find the root reason as to why we do something. Somehow, it all points back to making money. So, like said by someone before, there are friends who are there to take advantage of you when you get rich, for their own selfish reasons. Perhaps it is for this reason that some rich people actually try to avoid such persons. Thinking of it in another way, sometimes, it's not that the rich doesn't want to lend money to the needy friends but due to past bad experiences, they might be reluctant to. I dispise people who ditch their long known good friends after being rich. There just is no reason for them to do so unless their so called friends did something unacceptable. I long to earn big money but I wouldn't ditch my friends as they are a part of my life. Life wouldn't be complete if we have everything but no friends. Of course, the so called "friends" of mine shouldn't be taking advantage of me for whatever reasons else they wouldn't be called friends anymore, would they? Just my opinion on the rich and famous but I might be wrong in some things. However, I sympathize on you for what happened, Blackie. [/QUOTE]
