Rich people work really hard. True or false?

No doubt some rich people work hard, but nobody gets to be a millionaire purely through their own labours. They get to be filthy rich by exploiting others.





As the saying has it: The rich get rich through hard work - other people's hard work.Rich people work really hard. True or false?
It depends. I used to know some very wealthy farmers in California. They worked many 14 hour days to make money and they earned it. Now I know a number of self made wealthy people who worked for many years to get that way and have every right to be proud of what they have accomplished.





On the other hand, I know a few who inherited wealth and are pretty much lazy slobs. One woman I used to know felt that because she inherited her father's money, she was better than everybody else. In reality she was pretty sleazy and dishonest.





So, it all depends on the person and what they do. I'm a member of a service club where most the people are wealthy. They work very hard to earn their money, then work hard to help others less fortunate.Rich people work really hard. True or false?
Rich is a relative term, a lot of people think Americans are rich and lazy. Most ';rich'; people I have known worked for what they have.


Some won lottery's or sued someone.


I suppose the ones I hold in disdain are the people who were born on third base and think they hit a triple.
Depends on your definition of work. Rich people tend to use their brains rather than their backs to earn money. Some people wouldn't call that work, but those same people would have a really hard time trading places with the rich guy, despite what movies might show,
The ones who did not inherit their money usually worked hard to make what they have.





Some do not have to work as hard after they become rich as they did to become rich.





Really depends on the person and what they do I guess.
Depends on whether or not they actually earned it or inherited it. Of course in today's society all one really needs to do is pick their nose in a unique way. That leads to fame and fame to fortune. So I guess my answer would be no.


Have a nice day.
some of them do. some of them started out in poverty and worked very hard to become financially stable.
Some do and some don't. Same as some poor people work hard and some don't work at all.
I get so irritated with questions like these.





99% of people work hard for their money.





The other 1% are either Paris Hilton or the welfare queens that Republicans so love to rail against.
Some do, some don't work at all. Some worked hard to get the money and now don't work hard.
Yeah. I know I'd be super rich if I just worked as hard as Paris Hilton.
True. Unless they stole it. Or inherited. What was the question?
Some do, some don't. Same as everybody else.





Do you have a question about politics?
All the rich people I know worked incredibly hard to get that money.
present tense some do and some don't but at one time in there past they have that is why they have risen to fortune
Some do,but then you have your Al Sharpton's and Jesse Jackson's
False.
Some do. Many don't.
Depends on the job doesn't it'
