Wall Street protesters against greed

If you  watch and listen to the protesters on Wall Street and now all across the country, one of their main complaints is how the rich are greedy.  I find that to be hypocritical.  Aren't we all a little greedy?  Some more than others though.

Look at it this way.  We work, earn money and go out and buy things.  The more we buy the more we want.  When the latest gadget comes out, don't we want to go out and buy it whether we need it or not?  That is greed.

Definition of GREED

: a selfish and excessive desire for more of something (as money) than is needed

Many have made their fortunes by playing the stock market.  Well, so can the rest of us.  We can only achieve that by educating ourselves on how the stock market works and what are good investments.  Of course, you have to have money to invest in the stock market.  The best way to do that is work and save some money.

Unlike this person, we can be smarter.

Yes, it would be nice to have all the newest gadgets, but, ask yourself... do you really need it, or would you prefer to save your money and invest wisely?  We have the same opportunity as those who invest and make money via the stock market.  There are other opportunities to make money just like those "greedy" politicians, investors, and corporations.  Just learn how and do it.  That is what makes this country great.

If you think your politician is getting to "greedy"...vote them out!
