To judge a person on how you find them or how they treat you is good, money means nothing in this area, I think listening to your inner voice when it comes to people and you will nearly always be right.

For the most part I try not to judge but I guess we all do on some level. I try to like or dislike people based on there actions and by the way that they treat me or others. Most of don't like to admit it but if you are financially better off than others in your circle you will tend to find more things in common with a person on the same level as you are financially. Normally you will have been exposed to things that maybe someone less fortunate will not have. You are afforded the opportunity of experiencing different things that they may not have. You tend to like the same type things, that unfortunately only money can get you. You have an appreciation for the opportunities and experiences that having money will give you. And as much as we hate to admit it, we live in a society that is run by money. Either you have it or you dont. Like it or not society is going to judge you either by what you have or by what you don't have. Thats why Hollywood is what it is? We all fantasize about the lives of the rich and famous. And if anyone had the choice they would rather have than not have.

Money cannot buy friendship, ergo friendship doesn't equate to money in dollars, pounds, shillings nor pence. I don't care how much someone is worth, pennyless or rich beyond their wildest dreams, it all comes down to the way they treat me! If they treat me with respect, decency, compassion, caring and warmth then they are worth a million dollars if they are poor. If they treat with with contempt, hurt me, disrespect me or abuse me then they are worth not even a cent even if they are filthy rich.

It is funny that I should read this now, because I'm listening to a BBC broadcast about what it would ee like to live on a dollar a day. It's a sad program. All hese wonderful people ae trying to live. They earn a month what I pay for one cup of coffee here at The Second Cup. YIKES!!! I don't gage people by their money, rather by the kind of people they are. I bet the people out there living on a dollar a day are a lot sronger than any of us.

I do not judge people by what they have or how much money they have either. I try not to judge people at all anyway. It is hard to tell what alot of people have been through in their life. I have seen many people who look down on their luck and have heard it is not due to money problems. they have money but they do not flaunt it.

I like or dislike a person by how they treat me. Their financial status does not affect me unless they are paying my bills. If someone is financially supporting me, I will at least be respectful to them.
