8 Drawbacks of Being Rich

[47_MasoN_47]

Just keep in mind that this isn't always true. I know 2 self-made multi-millionaires who still live in middle class houses and drive regular cars. One of the guys drives a 1994 Taurus and the other drives a 1999 Silverado. IMO, the key to being rich without all the hassle is to just continue to live normally (at least on the outside) instead of having some extravagant life. You'd never know either of those guys were millionaires until you got to know them well, or if you went inside their house. On the inside everything is awesome, but to everybody else it just looks like any other house.

True. Many rich people are like that. Often times, that's how they stay rich.

As opposed to these crazy Hollywood stars that live like Hollywood stars. You have people like Nick Cage almost bankrupt. Or the Micheal Jackson type that made 100's of millions, and squandered it all.

Bill Gates, on the other hand, could buy a country and yet he's been known to drive old cars and lives very conservatively considering his vast wealth.
