Do you know anyone who had changed attitude just because of money?

i believe that money can change a person's attitude and views in life. one good example for me was my friend. when we were in high school, she would borrow money from me always because she didn't have enough allowance. but when we got to college, her parents put up a business and did good in it, and so they now have a lot of money. she now doesn't wanna eat at places we used to eat because she wants to eat at fancy restaurants and tells me she doesn't wanna hangout with people we used to hang out with because she says they are poor when i heard her say that, i got mad at her and i advised her to keep her feet on the ground and all that, and she said okay and that she'll try. we don't see each other anymore because she is now busy with their family business. i just hope she doesn't choke on what ever she said before hehehe but i think she also needs to learn her lesson. but i don't know. that is not my problem anymore.

Money can definitely get you drunk of power, and make you conceited. Almost all the people I know who got a high-paying job changed, they're @ssholes now. Interesting thing is, they still treat me the same. I guess it's because I'd kick their @ss if they ever showed me that f*cked up attitude of their in front of my face.

I think it is pretty common when someone suddenly get lots of money. There are so many people lose themselves when they become rich because of lottery or other things. People change their attitude because of many reasons. First, they think the money change their life and their social class accordingly. You know, people from different social classes have different life, they make different friends. Therefore, when you suddenly get very rich, many people may want to know you. And sometimes even you don't want to change, you will change little by little. I think no matter how the situation change, we should try to keep a cool head. And always be honest with our family members and friends. We can't change how others see us, but we ourselves should kepp being ourselves.

Yes, on both sides of the equation. There have been people who have gotten a little extra money and thus have gotten some rather swollen heads to say the very least. It is almost appalling and I'm sure the fact that they have all kinds of new friends doesn't have anything to do with the fact they have money. No sir, of course not, why would that be. It would have to be because of your charming personality which is not that charming. Then again, there have been many people who have lost money and suddenly are a bit more humble. Obviously there are things that they could in fact get away with when they had money. Things that they would not be able to get away with when they do not have money. So they do a very prominent about face. It is kind of amusing, how losing their money can shock people into becoming a bit better. Then again that's not always the case as some people are bitter still.

Yea, they bragged/brag all the time about their stuff and everything they can do. I just think people who brag are so insecure and just plain rude in front of others who do not have as much as they do. I have arrogance in my house here without the money, I can't even imagine how the would be with money, I shudder to think.

Hello friend, No I don't know any person who chage her attitude for money. But now-a-days money is the important thing in our life. So it is possible. Have a nice day.

Yeah, that happened to my neighbours. When they moved in to our neigbourhood, they had very cheap car. I still remember that. Now things have changed. So have their attitude toward me. But this doesn't happen to all. It depends. Some people who become very rich look very humble and don't like to show off what they actually have. But mostly yes. Money can turn people's mind and attitude.

I have made the similar discussion about this and i felt sad for him. but am glad he did mentioned it so that we won't be repeating his mistakes. I used to kinda hate him for what he did but in case i win something like, i'd make sure that i won't scrwe things up like he did and besides, i never sure if am ever going to win

Yes, I believe that too much money will make a devil of any person. Sometimes when people know he has that much money, they will approach him for help or some favors, and that's when he will show his real color. If the money he has belongs to the devil, then he will do everything to avoid or disregard anyone who seeks for his kindness. He will become greedy and a liar. He will become a candidate to h*ll.

No, I do not know anyone who has changed habits, Because rich. At least a day today, by contrast, seem to my compatriots, they live in a lower middle class. From my point of view, and also from my personal experience, I understand that even those who apparently do not have economic problems, often complain when they would first have to be quiet! This hurts me a lot! This is because, what should I say that I live a family, where the effort, to get to the end of month? Well you see just to answer your question, I share the opinion that if someone is connected brag about having lots of money, and do so in an arrogant way, I would bother.

Yes my ex. It's annoying, very annoying.. always talking about himself, what he bought for expensive stuff, including the high prices and still not satisfied and always complaining and never wondering if it hurts others they don't have a euro to spend. I tell him I can't stand him and why he is never satisfied since he has everything now he ever dreamed of. If he ever asked himself that for the price he bought a stereo others have to live from a whole year. But its like talking to a wall so I ignore him and delete his emails.

Hello Metatronik... How are you? I have so many friends who act like that. They are changing a lot when they have lots of money. My aunties also change a lot when they already rich. Not only the way they talk changes. Their habit and the way they life are also change a lot. Now, they only want to eat in a big expensive restaurant. They do not allow their children to take bus to go to school. Some of my auntie is generous. But at the end, they like the poorer family to work for them, but then they talk something bad about those poorer family to other employee. Well...we certainly do need money to survive. Need more money and lots of money to keep in bank account. But most of the time, money change people's life-style and habit and personality. And money often makes a family broken.

The persons you discribed may felt themselves inferior.When they have a lot of money abruptly,they tend to prove their own value using money.They think more money they are spending, more valuable they are.If my friends changed like this,i will be sorrow,but the attitude already have made one big gap between us.

Everything has been said, I just want to add another point. Maybe these people don't really changed. Those traits are already within them but they just can't act the way they want because they don't have money. Maybe that arrogance with neighbors, those womanizing and gambling are already on their plans once they got rich. They actually did not changed but money gives them the opportunity to show their true selves. There are some who remain humble and generous because that's their true traits.

hi, yes,i have encountered that to my life and the sad was he is my relative my cousin,all i know with his personality was really good,humble,never do anything bad for you,never betray you because we are relative,but because of money he changed and i really disappointed to him.

Sadly one of my buddies was, She used to be very humble and sweet everyone in my group loves her. Unfortunately, when she become vice president at the company where she works at she then changed attitude. She doesn't want to be our friend no more not even talk to us. However, I think something big happened in her life because couple years after she ended our friendship suddenly I received email from her asked for apology for treated us (me and four others) that way.

Yes, I have a best friend since we were in grade 5 until collage, since we are in grade school we use to sleep over from our house or their house, we normally talk just what ever is there to talk, I called her mother mama as well as her father papa, however we are no longer the same as before because she already change, I have felt that she change when the some hectare lot of her grand mother was sold for about 10M, the children of her gradma is only 8 so each child has been given 1M including her father, so when they receive their Million she change, she is no longer wearing appropriate clothes every time she goes to church, she change her lifestyle too, we are still friends but not as close as before...

I know very many people who have changed their attitudes because of money and I really despise them. People that we went to school with, people I believed to be close friends. When I needed their help they all turned their backs on me simply because they
