Hate to break it to you, but in reality it doesn't quite play out that way. |
Thats because you live in America, where everyone puts their personal pleasure ahead of their duty and responsibility.

Like I said, when you are poor and do not possess the ability to make your fortune, your children are your hope. Would you rather doom your children to a generation of starvation when you could give them a better life, at the expense of a little "love"? (and does love matter if you are living in poverty?)

Not necessarily. Money doesn't make one happy.
