What differentiates the rich from the poor aside from material wealth or possessions?

The poor generally are more appreciative of what they possess because they worry that they may lose what little they have. Maybe they could handle life's adversities better because they are used to a disadvantaged position.

Those who are born rich probably are more easily hurt because they live sheltered lives with high expectations.

Pointy

There is an aura of confidence that is obvious as a result of one's social status in life. Some of the less fortunate do not exhibit this trait. Either they do not know how to pretend or they just act the way they want to without any qualms or they are simply humble.

Well, hmm, I think the poor happen to more bumble&grateful for the simpleer things in life like family and having food for the day while the rich who have been rich all their lives see the glass as half empty.

Basically
Poor>>rich=glass half full
poor>>=glass half full
rich>>rich=glass half empty

make sense? :]

Elegance and being well-bred. Often, breeding come naturally with affluence although it is not entirely confined to the wealthy and not all rich folks have breeding.

mostly education, unless you are a boxer or action movie star. Those who are educated often come from smaller families

The rich may have knowledge and skills on how to build wealth.
I have high respect for the poor who worked their way out of poverty.

The rich would have to eat money, if the poor did not provide food.

I guess poor people can better describe what life really is.

The rich do not care who they walk over or hurt to make their wealth whereas the poor are more humble. Okay I suppose Im poor and you get tired of the rich people walking all over you. I just hope I don''t have to share heaven with them!!!
