"Money do the honest man". I've heard this sentence a long time ago, and I think that is a bit real.
Why you've afraid of a poor man which is in the street and ask you something? Why you admire a man that walk on a Ferrari?
That's why you give respect to a man that walk on a Ferrari, and not give respect to a poor man.
Someone could steal a Ferrari and you would believe he is a "hard working man that bought a Ferrari". Seems pretty stupid to me.
