What do you think of kids who are born into a loaded family?

The oddest thing I've noticed is that there's almost no in between.

I either run into kids who are the most humble, down to earth individuals in the world and end up having a 5 story beach house...

or like yesterday, I saw some kid driving an Sl550 AMG. I said to him at a stop light "Damn man, that's a nice car", and he's in the car with a girl and just goes "...Yep".

That type of pompousness throws me off. People are people, and they're not as open to compliments as you'd think. Hell, I gave a dude a thumbs up when he passed me in a Ferrari and he just sort of tilted his head at me confused. Dude, you're in a Ferrari.

Just a little rant.

There is a good reason for that.

I can tell from my own experience as well since my family is pretty successful as well.

The reason is THOSE KIDS NEVER HAD TO EARN IT. Their parents just gave them the money and all the other nice things, since they never earned a single cent they act like a jackass. I have seen many of them and I just feel sorry for them because they are like zoo tigers, as those tigers forgot how to hunt since zoo gives them the food every day. Tigers get their name and fame because its a fierce hunter, so if a tiger can't or doesn't know how to hunt then what does it make him/her… Cat..

However, I know kids from rich families, their parents sent them to work, they learned everything from the bottom and made their way up. Those kids are humble, they have seen how it is like at the bottom end so they treat people with respect. They are what I call the real jungle tiger. Some one who knows how to hunt, some one who can start with 0 and can make a million back again. Unlike those spoilt brats, whom if you gave a million they will make it 0.

I still can remember, my first job was as a sales executive in a bank, I had to travel 90 min each way to go to work!! Had to stand up in store all day and had to sell people credit cards! I used to look up to other peoples sports car and used to admire them as well. Now I own one, fly in business class all the times etc. But I had to earn it and had to make my way up. So i can never look down on people, because I was one of them about 10 years ago.

Those brats looks down on people as they never had to work at the bottom and move up like their parents did. So, don't hate them, just feel sorry for them as they are really unfortunate. Think what will happen if the parents stops giving them money!! They won't be able to beg on the street properly either!
