"There are strict taboos against money that isn't earned with sweat from the brow"
A relative of mine grew up with many orientals and she too holds this attitude. It seems very strange to me but now at least I know where it came from.
- thomasp 19y agoYou know that is a good attitude for society. It is only during financial bubble times that people develop the flip-it mindset. I am a PG fan, but the only thing I am not a fan of is his built-to-flip mindset.
