Exactly ..... I have wealthy friends and non-wealthy friends who are dirt poor ... you know what the difference is between the two groups?
The wealthy people are the stingiest people you'll ever meet and they'll fight to save a dollar or two, even though you know they have tons of money in the bank.
The poor people will spend $100 on something they could buy for $20 and never think twice about the money they lost, even though they have nothing saved in their bank.
