If you're living in an area full of luxury housing...?

Does it bother you that just outside the area that is loaded with luxury housing, that just across the street from a major arterial road, is full of government housing projects (subsidized housing) housing the poor or low income nobodys?

Would you be complaining if you have to live so close to the poor too?

Remember that a lot of these people who live in government housing have low, unsustainable or even no income at all. All too often, there's a lot of bickering in the domestic front. Yes, there's can be very blissful families too, even though they're poor and there are rich households that are full of conflict.

    I would imagine that those in the luxury housing are busy with their own lives and if not, are either thanking their lucky stars for the neighborhood they have or feeling justified that their circumstances have provided them their residences.

    In part, this is what charities are for. To help some folks to enable themselves and to help some other folks address the some of the inequities of life. If this is your situation, you are living in luxury across the street from a less than ideal neighborhood, then I encourage you to explore the programs in your area, the needs of the K-12 school teachers in your area, the needs of the local post K-12 students in your area, and the needs of the job seekers in your area. Identify the programs that tug at your heart strings and figure out what you can do to support them in terms of dollar donations, in-kind donations, and volunteer hours. In doing so, remember the moral of the sand dollar story: You may not be able to save them all but, each and every one you help is mighty greatful.

    All rich people are different it really depends who you are some have a whole street with only their family living upon it,like where i live there's tons of them but sadly i don't live in one of those house's if i did i would be really happy and grateful i got my dream home.

    poor people can have just as bad families just as well.

    There's some upper class places where you are kicked out if you make a racket and always have the cops over your house though!

    I have a pen-pal online who lives in a mansion and he would get kicked out if he had a racket going on.

    They also usually don't let sales people into some of those neighborhoods.

    So it really depends where you live as well.

    I really doubt anybody with the money knows how it is in the working industry and doesn't care what other people think,you just have to go for it.

    There's some poor people who are actually really jealous of rich people like my dad always throws trash at a upper-class neighbor hood just because the family of a jewelery shop owns a whole street,meaning there's no-one out of their family that actually lives on that street.

    It's pretty crazy i wouldn't want to live that close to my family.

    Duh... It's human nature to feel that way. The rich hate seeing the poor so close to them and the poor want to be close to them.
