You know what it is, why should I have to tell you? Do you want me to tell what nice is? Ethical? Everybody knows these things. When you reach that point, you have a choice - be a glutton or a team player.
have you ever actually met a wealthy individual? i'm not talking about the paris hilton type, but the kind that probably lives in your neighborhood. I spend a good portion of my time with the entry level wealthy (it's my job) and I can tell you that people you would villify as wealthy don't think of themselves as wealthy. in fact, they continue to work hard and accumulate more because they are afraid they haven't worked hard enough to survive retirement yet. what defines a glutton? someone with $10 more than you? $10,000? $1,000,000?

Wait forget all that. Serious question here. Where in your scale does a person who makes $60,000 per year fall? Are they one of the righteous poor or one of the villainous wealthy?
