The hatred of money is almost always a defense mechanism.

Some people will insult your intelligence by suddenly being nice or nicer to you once you make it … or they think you have.

When you are really rich, you do not mind coming across as poor or broke.

Nobody is stopping you from using things such as your ability to read or hear as your definition of ‘success’ or ‘wealth’.

Some of those who faked it until they made it are now faking not to have made it.

You need not be rich or famous to be intelligent, wise, or knowledgeable. And vice versa.
