A number of studies have shown that for most people, "rich" is whoever that makes 3x as much as they do. In essence, almost nobody considers themselves as "rich".

In the great competition of life, success is the yardstick we use to measure our self worth. Even those who think competition is for the least evolved among us compete to be the least competitive

No, I think that's entirely wrong. It's the conventional wisdom but so what? Just because so many buy into the nonsense doesn't make the nonsense any more sensible.

It's this ridiculous myth that we're fed, it's nothing but propaganda. We are much more cooperative than competitive. If we weren't, we wouldn't get anything done.
