It's more fun to be rich and unethical.

Well I certainly have ethics, ones I would not abolish to become richer than I am.....I am old school and don't mind being dirt poor if I had to if that meant keeping my dignity and respect for self and others!

I would go with poor and honest. One day rich may come, but you can still remain honest.

Either one could be taken to the extreme where the other looks favorable, but in general poor and trustworthy is best.

This is a no-brainer...anyone with any moral fiber at all would choose poor and honest as the better of the two.

Well, I've been poor and honest my whole life (53 years). It kinda sucks, I'm ready to try the other way.

It is better (in the context of today's American society) to be rich and unethical. Ethics may get in the way of acquiring wealth.
