It's interesting. I've been rich and I've been poor, and rich is better, but they're different in weird ways.

When you're poor, you console yourself with the thought that if those pampered rich bastards had to live your life, they wouldn't last a week. And that's true. They don't have the skillset necessary to survive in the wrong class.

But it's also true in reverse: if poor people suddenly became rich, they wouldn't last a week. We have surprisingly extensive testing of this theorem in the form of lottery winners.

Not to say I think the despicable wealth gap in the United States is anything other than a national embarrassment that needs to be scaled back to, say, 1960s levels posthaste. Just that the way socioeconomic class works is weirder than it looks.
