see a rich person knows something a bum doesn't. that you are the captain of your own ship. that is to say.. you.. are only a product of your drive and initiative to sustain or improve... your self. sure, unfortunate things happen but how much they affect you (if at all).. is completely at your control. your situation is a direct result of the choices in life that you make.

bums have the mentality of bums, long before they ever become homeless. they think that unless some grand fortunate event is plucked out of the cosmos and falls right into their lap that nothing will ever happen for them. most people want to avoid the pain of thinking that they're the one responsible for the situation they're in. they want to blame and point fingers and lay the responsibility for their life on everything else but the actual source of their lifestyle.

themself.

that mentality is the seperation of the self made rich from the self made poor.


Thats it! You just put what I always try to tell people in a very understandable few sentences. I usually say something like "Oh well, it's all your fault anyway," if people try to pull some victim shit.
