They build these immense defenses to separate themselves from the common folk and then declare class warfare on the throng of humanity at the bottom of their power pyramid scheme because they are in fact scared of the overwhelming numbers we have. It's human nature to hoard the resources and exclude people who are not strong enough to take what they need to survive. There is a distinction between old-money, the people with real power, and those who worked their way up from humble beginnings. You can see the newly rich like actors and sports stars will go out of their way to help because they still have sympathy and empathy for the common man. Its the established aristocracy of super rich families who have lost this trait which people hate. People sometimes hate the rich because the rich have everything and the poor have nothing.

The only thing they have inherited usually is the belief that they can and will be wealthy." Yeah, I come across this a lot as well. Many people seem to have a misconception that you can only get rich at the expense of others. They feel that anyone who is rich must have cheated other people out of their money. And it's not just the young or the poor that have this mindset. I meet a lot of people who are not rich but financially comfortable who have the same misconception about becoming wealthy. Although I never had the misconception, I did feel that the rich must have had some advantage over me that allowed them to be rich. It never occurred to me that many wealthy people have built their fortunes despite their past. Just take Andrew Carnegie. Andrew was a poor boy from Scotland. Working 12 hours a day for 6 days a week at the cotton mill he never had anymore advantages than you or I. He worked hard and went the extra mile in everything he did. It was his hard work and dedication that allowed Andrew to get better and better jobs with more pay. Eventually he started investing money into the steel industry until his investments grew into a steel company that became one of the largest in America. Andrew's company was eventually bought out for the equivalent of $120 Billion. There are thousands of others, just like Andrew, who have proved that you have the same opportunities to become wealthy as anyone else. Your past, disabilities, and/or education does not have to be the limiting factors to your success. Your mind is the only barrier to success that you have. Overcome this barrier and you will be wealthy. -Shannon “In the same way I get annoyed when people say that those with lots of money (especially young people) have obviously done something illegal to get it or have inherited it from their parents.

You really have to throw off those old beliefs, which can be difficult because after 16+ years (and that's just childhood) of having this mindset it becomes part of your life. My mum still says to me things like "our family wasn't supposed to be rich" and I have only recently started pulling her up on it and asking her why she believes that. It's hard to break free of such ingrained teaching.
