I believe that almost all of us could be classified as rich people, but due to our inexperience, greed or mistrust, some of us have lost this opportunity. In the cryptocurrency market over the past few years, there have been a huge number of opportunities to profitably invest in Bitcoin or Ethereum and become a really very rich person today. Based on this, I believe that a rich person, in most cases, became rich because they are able to make the right decisions and know how to make money.
Inexperience and greed are actually good because no experienced investor would have ever invested in Bitcoins in the early years like 2010 but the inexperienced ones did so and greed is helpful because it makes you want more and more and with Bitcoins actually that's the best thing to have. I still remember when I first came into the Bitcoin world, it was relatively cheap and I wish I had that greed to just buy and hold.
On the other hand I think this does encourage the poor to relax and be even more lazier, because not every poor person is in that situation because they are unfortunate instead a lot of people are poor because they never respected the opportunities presented to them and never wanted to work hard.
Good point and each of us are living independently which means we all had the same chances as others and if someone took the better advantage of the situation and opportunity, we cannot blame them for that.
