  • Wealthy Families The Question Of Freedom
    2,053 words
    Wealth Begets Freedom Fortune is inherently a private issue that only allows observers a peek from which to surmise the condition of the holder's lifestyle and budget. However it is from these glimpses that society draws its stereotypes, as there is supposed to exist a set of standards such as clothing, good looks, and automobiles that influence our perception of one another. This system could not be more flawed. Wealth has no universal effect on a populace, as every being is an individual and t...

Moreover, most of the time, the reaction is a negative one. There is the basic understanding that humans have free will. They have to choice to do whatever they feel in life, which in turn makes life very stressful. Our choices obviously result in some other consequence, and as I said, the consequences, though we may...
