Dude. Ice Cube has always been "fuck you got mine." People are only just now noticing?
this. coming into money doesn't change who you are. It magnifies who you've always been. Sure, people can change, but it isn't the money doing it.
While I bet that it goes faster if you already lacked empathy there is research that indicate that coming into money makes you less empathetic.
And then of course there's also the exceptions, like Keanu Reeves and Brendan Fraser (from what I've heard at least).
the change in empathy has more to do with the change in social circumstances than it does a change in personality. This is part of what I mean by it magnifies who you really are. You see, when you're poor you need the help of others- be it welfare, or more social assistance (parents watching kids, etc) you need that help.
So, you tend to give assistance with the expectation of social reciprocity.It's social reciprocity at play here... when you become rich, you don't need to rely on it, so you don't. Epitomy of "Got mine, fuck you"
