Slyvester Ochieng: It is the poor who believe that the rich have more problems.

Debbie Tess: Can you say otherwise or must one be supporting it. Or rather, problems from what perspective?

Kelvin Munene: (To slyvester) How?

Slyvester: (To kelvin) It is a very long long story. The rich have money. Money cannot buy happiness but it gives people more options to choose from.. On the other side, the poor are suffering everywhere starting from their mindset to their survival.. By all means guys, let's fight against poverty.. It is better to suffer rich, than to suffer poor.

Joseph Mwenda: Maybe poor families have been settled to normal life and adjusted but in rich families the children are brought up in a manner that they are spoiled by their parents money so they grow up in a way that they don't invest more but spending more.

Kelvin Munene: (To slyvester) But these rich individuals end up poor at long last after lavish lifestyle.

Suavis: (To Joseph) Could this be reason enough though as to why they have more problems. ..because if u have money u ain't scared of how and where it goes u just spend and spend is that a problem.

Debbie Tess: Well I was just asking. I think rich families have more problems than the poor.

1.Healthwise.

 As much as the rich have the money to feed on a proper diet,a apart of them don't.

They only feed on the sweet things or rather things they want but not what the body needs.

Eg,you will get a child from a rich family or even a parent saying,they can't eat food containing glutten yet it is of help to the body.

Whereas the poor eat what they get,and most of the times end up eating a healthy diet. Ugali,greens and water. Atleast 95% of the recommended diet is taken care of.

Joseph Mwenda: (To Suavis) Yes because if the parents die guess what will happen.

Slyvester Ochieng: (To Joseph Mwenda) Not all families.. Some train their children tu take over their businesses.. This is what is called Generational wealth management.

Suavis: (To Joseph Mwenda) Your view is right but I think we should look more on why they have dysfunctional homes psychological issues too.

Slyvester: By the way na feel vibaya with your views on the rich.it is like some of you are not aware of the number of lives we loose yearly because of poverty

Kelvin Munene: (To slyvester) The rich are walking dead with obese complications.

Slyvester Ochieng: (To kelvin) Sir, Are you advocating for poverty?

Debbie Tess: But then again. The poor also have lots of problem,chances are they are even more. One can easily die of illness, accidents or literally anything that can be controlled with a little bit of money,but since they don't have it,they end up dying. Most of the children from poor families have very detoriated health,by this I mean most of them are malnourished due to lack of certain types of food(carbohydrates, proteins....) Most of the people who die from usage of drugs are poor, because unlike the rich who take drugs and eat,the poor take drugs and eat nothing. When life threatening diseases like cholera attack,the poor are mostly affected because of the kind of lifestyle they lead. I can keep doing this all night. But my point is,the rich could have problems,yes. But not as much as the poor

Debbie Tess: (To kelvin) The only financial constraint the rich could have and only at 5% at most is financial management.Most of their children lack the parental support and love coz the parents are mostly ever busy. So they end up spoilt that they can't keep up with an average lifestyle which is mostly known as a humble home/background.Sometimes,they even grow up without knowing how it feels to play with your parents. Diseases like obesity due to the kinds of foods they eat is also a problem some of them face coz from eating junks on the dining they head straight to the car,walk for a very short distance getting into their offices,use lift to move to the different floors,in the evening they get back in the car,get home and walk very few steps. And that is their normal routine. But still remember this is only for a very small percentage.

Brenda: Hi guys, my opinion is that rich families are struggling to maintain wealth that they still have or to increase the wealth while poor familes are trying to survive; they just want enough. Rich families have enough but want more that keeps them in their toes. Rich have more problems as money comes with extra problems.  

Debbie Tess: (More) And to add on this. Most broken families are of the rich calibar.And among the poor.

Domestic violence is very rampant.But then again,look at the bond the poor share and the rich share,,it is just on very different levels.Like on a dining table during supper, everyone in the rich family is on their phone and some even eat in their bedrooms. But the poor have to share a plate at times,so most of the poor families are happy compared to most of the rich.
