Honestly. Money is nice. I don't envy rich. Just greedy elites who must be unhappy to be so rich yet still f.ck the poor over. Definitely not jealous of that.

It kinda makes me upset to know how much suffering these people could preent if they gave up being rich, but in fairness, they do actually [i]create[/i] most of the wealth they have. Like, Bill Gates has USD$96.9 billion, which seems unfair until you consider that he actually raised the total value of stuff on Earth by greater than that amount.

Honestly, I would love to have all their money and not worry about how to pay car repairs and how many times I ‘m eating out and how much I’ll pay for health insurance, etc

No. I would rather appreciate what I have than spend my life in trivial negatives over something someone else has. They have their own stresses. Being rich does't solve life.

Sometimes I do feel a touch of envy. But I'm not hurt or jealous.

I am genuinely glad that they have prospered; for one thing, it means prosperity exists in my world and therefore might someday happen to me. And I like to see people doing well in life, especially if they seem happy and friendly.

But I do sometimes envy people who have their own bathroom and who do not live in one rented room counting their pennies and trying to budget like a genius. Just having my own bathroom and my own kitchen would be luxury to me.
No. If I want something I earn it.
No. Because when I was growing up, we still believed in America and the American Dream. When we saw a wealthy person, we thought "Someday, I'm going to have that myself." Not "You didn't build that. You cheated."

No,I do not. The grass is never greener. I have had friends who were obscenely wealthy and had waaaay more problems than not having enough money.

@Fernie Good point.

No I'm happy with what I've got and enjoy life more than some rich folk who are too tight to spend

I'm only jealous of their abilities

Maybe a little jealous

No. I do when I see people interacting with each other, I do.

@Psycho or being insensitive to those who don’t have as much, which I’m afraid I’ve done 🤦🏻‍♀️ (and I’m not wealthy)

It’s good to admit but even better to apologize to the person@Love4All
