Question

How come rich people do dumber things than poor people?

Answer 1

Probably cause they can afford to. Zachary ,your not rich, your just lucky. Your parents are rich and they don't have to give you anything.

Answer 2

maybe its because they have so much money that they dont know what to d with it all so they end up spending/throwing it out on stupid hings or to go do stupid things. basically they have a hard time finding stuff to blow it off on.

Answer 3

cuz i can im rich and i take this as offensive i dont do anything dumb or stupid i give money away to my friends at school

Answer 4

In my opinion, rich people do dumber things than poor people because they've got money and they think because they've got it they can spend it.

Answer 5

Not so rich people have to be witty and resourceful because they have to budget their money so they can stay alive. Rich people do retarded things because they have the money to fall back on.

Answer 6

because they think they are all that!

Answer 7

Wealth doesn`t always equate intelligence.

Answer 8

It's not that rich people do dumber things than poor people, they just get more publicity about it.  Everyone rich and poor alike do their fair share of dumb things.

Answer 9

they can always post bail

Answer 10

Perhaps this question can have a double meaning.  Depending on what your definition of rich and poor is?

Answer 11

poor folk do stupid things too.

Answer 12

Money makes you more noticeable. It magnifies who you are.

Oprah Winfrey is a humanitarian. We notice this because she is wealthy. I'm a humanitarian too, but who's gonna know?

Mike Tyson has a bad temper (among other things), and so does J. Barfield. But who knows J. Barfield?

We watch Cops, World's Dumbest Criminals,Maury Povich

and Jerry Springer all of the time and we see all kinds of dumb poor people on these shows.

I guess the point I am trying to make is, that you can't generalize this thing. Dumb people are all over the place.LOL!

Answer 13

Because rich people think that everony likes them and/or they don't care what people think of them. Poorer people act better because acting recklessly will  only add to problems they might have.

Answer 14

Have the money to get them out of something stupid.

Answer 15

because they don't think things out like middle class and poor people

Answer 16

This is a ridiculous generalization.
