After doing some research on Paris Hilton, (yes, I know research) I noticed a couple of odd things about her. I saw videos when she was in Japan, Turkey etc.and this girl didn't know a thing or two. Everything was translated to her. That's when I couldn't help wonder. Why is it that society judges you on your looks, weight,hair color and the latest trend, but not on your brains.

All we need is to be up to date with fashion, starve or become anorexic in order to be thin, bimbo head is a must and we make 25 million dollars a year. In the contrary for the rest of us with a brain, 35K sounds satisfying.

Myself and many other people that I have met know at least 2-3 languages or will at least do the salutaion part on our own. We were working, going to school and coming home to be a parent, a sister or a caretaker. But, this rich girl not just have all the money in the world and time they can't even study something? Has anyone ever told them that money can fly away from your hands? There are many rich people that have lived that style and have ended broke.

Well,as like all people know,poor people study because want to change their poor fate or destiny and want to have good job.But rich people dont study because they think they already have many money and too much rich to not need study.But there is also many poor people who dont study because they are too lazy and not because they dont have chance to study.They ruin their own life to better life.

Don't get jealous like that, every people have their own way. They "stupid" but rich, so what? That's their life, and I don't want to be like them. I think which term do you asking about that, if you asking this question on entertainment world so the answers is Y-E-S, they don't need your brain, just be pretty, sexy, or whatever fit on TV, then you'll rich. But when we talk on business forum, forget about that. Look the "paris hilton parfum" which is sucks, she doesn't even count in the world of business.

I have no intention of being jealous of anyone who is rich. I'm blessed and content with what I got. What I'm saying is, if I had money I will get in a top university and learned a couple of languages. What's the point of been rich, pretty but dumb. I'm pretty sure guys will fall but eventually they will run out because an empty head is annoying when you can't carry a conversation.

Some rich people do not study because they think it not useful to them and they think they can make more money without studying.But there are the other rich people use their family's money and break up in the end,those are the people I look down to.The poor people want to be rich,the only way can they go is to study as hardly as possible.Knowledge can change one's fate.In my opinion,those are the reasons to your question.

Most rich people don't give importance to education. Because of their wealth and richness in the world, for them they can live without education. Some rich people will just go to school for formality. Unlike poor ones, education is the only key to be successful and attain all the richness in the world.

Why do poor people study? To have a nice and stable job someday and to earn much money for the future life. In short to become RICH and to survive our everyday living. But I think not all rich people out there don't give importance to education. I believe that some of them are also eager to study to learn many things.

one first thing(contradict).this is not necessary that poor people study and rich do not. It depends upon every bodies interest. In my university i have noted that most of the poor guys waste their time by watching movies and wandering here and there and do not study.they just want to enjoy.

the second thing(in fever). The main reason behind this is that most of the people try to get education in order to find a great job and have a maximum salary,have cars,have banglas and have any facility of the life. As rich people are already in reach of these things so they do not trouble to get education.
so this why they do so.

Well, that is simply life. Life can be unfair and harsh at times. What is important is how people perceive you and the way you perceive yourself. For example, I would rather be part of the middle income bracket rather than being thought by others as just a rich pretty face but lacks brains and is stupid. Studying and personal growth depends on ourselves. Maybe Paris just really did not want to study or further her self-growth in meaningful ways. Speaking of Paris, I dislike that girl. She is just another rich and spoiled bimbo.

an old proverb that is " rich is no sprout and poor is no root'

actually u have the point but for me you don't get the real reason! Why poor people study hard and rich people won't. Eventually poor people in terms of financial are asked their parent study hard so that when you finish you'll get a good future. The question is how many people getting rich when employing for a company??? 1 2 3 4? But rich people think, study our business will so that in the future your the one hold it and make it better! actually the Question is not specific! The logic here is Rich people and poor People, they think different!

I agree to them that poor people strive to be successful in life so there's only hope is their education. Education is the only treasure that we have that no one gonna get it from us. I think rich people don't prioritize education because they have everything they want. Money can buy anything but not the happiness. If you want to change your life you need to finish your education to be able to be rich someday.

I don't think this is really the case. It's just over-emphasized by some but not necessarily a fact of life. Here in my country, the rich people get more job opportunities than the poor because they study hard. They even take masters degree. Because they can afford. While the poor don't have the means to finish even grade school so they become poorer unless they find a way to crawl out of poverty by getting scholarship or find a job they can do.

I won't deny the fact that there are really rich brats that don't value what they have. Those who don't consider that they're that lucky they are privileged but I believe there are very few of them and am sure they are going to learn their mistakes one day.

that's very common in my life.
i don't have much money,and in order to survive, i have to study for ever.
i can list some of my studying experience if you don't think its too boring
but i know someone (i dont want to mention her name here )from little that she can have many things which i could not simply becoz i dont have money.eg,when we were little,she could have as many lovely dolls as she wanted while i had to look near to see her playing but not able to buy one becoz my parents earned little.

i also know someone whose parents are of lots of money,he doesnt have to study well but his parents are able to get him a job no matter how silly he is.

then another guy i acquainted with someday,his parents are like gold mines.when i talked about getting certificates and studying hard is important,he simply laughed and said he just use MONEY TO BUY CERTIFICATES!with arrogance,he named several certificates such as computer test,english language test and so on.and,he slao said that:"a hundred thousand or two is A TINY THING to him".

i dont understand.

i am willing to study and to struggle for my self and my family,but why they can have so much money without any diligence or hard-working?
