I rather be a poor nice person. Rich people just seem unapproachable. And I wouldn't want to wonder if people like me for me or my moola.
which would you be? A mean rich person or a nice poor person?

How poor are we talking? I'd rather be a poor nice person. You are more likely to get yourself out of being poor than experiencing a personality change.
Probably being a mean person means you'll be surrounded by jerks. It's all about the company for me, and money can't buy good company.

No, not really. Not a good job anyways. Since if your poor, chances are you haven't had any sort of practical job expierence. Since if you did, you wouldn't be poor. Not to mention the lack of education due to the financial burden of college, makeing getting a good job harder. There are plenty of "no expierence" necessary jobs, but typicaly, those don't pay much more than minimum wage.
It's not very shocking, that it takes money, to make money. Wheras if you don't have any, it's much harder to make it.

I don't agree, you can have a college eductaion and still be poor (or middle class). Teachers have degrees but many earn very little. How about those who have degrees or many years of work experience but choose noble professions like working for non-profit organizations, the Peace Corps, as social workers, the disabled, etc....

I hope you don't mean poor as in have to sleep on the street poor
but I rather be a nice poor person. I know a few as*hole rich people and believe me they are not the happiest people I know. In fact the happiest people I know live modestly
I'd take a good heart over no heart anyday.
