Looks like he was a very bitter man who despised wealthy people.

Sounds reasonable.

Were there many students from wealthy families in Virginia Tech?

Only upper middle-class...the wanna-be rich...the most insidious kind.
What Cho did was a senseless tragedy yet one that could have been avoided. Cho was the instrument of death but he was not the cause. Who are the real murderers, the instigators of this horrific crime? Everyone that laughed and made fun of him, that belittled and was derisive of him, that ignored and rejected him should accept just a little of the blame of this "massacre".
Yes, he was mentally ill (or, at least, disturbed). Yes, he was strange and a foreigner. No, he wasn't a "monster" and he wasn't "evil".
He was a stranger in a strange land with a desperate need to be accepted and in desperate need of a friend. As one student remarked as she recalled meeting him on the first day of school: "...he was laughable...".
I doubt that she is laughing now.
A sad story...very sad, indeed.
