Some people think that the most important thing about being rich is it gives a person the opportunity to help other people. Do you agree or disagree?

#people #person #opportunity
It’s thought by some that one of the greatest things and opportunities that
money
 and richnesses can provide people, it’s the chance they have to help others, specially the needed ones. In my opinion,
however
, I don’t agree
this
 is the best aspect about being rich and I think a
lot
 of
money
 is no needed in order to help people.
Firstly
, one of the main reasons why the most important thing about being rich isn’t helping others is the fact that they have a
lot
 of other kind of much interesting facilities as well as opportunities. Despite some of the richer people in the world help the needed ones making donations of millions of
money
, the majority of them don’t do
this
 very often, which make people think,
this
 is far from being something they really like. In the opposite, the main part of the world richest people usually spend their
money
 on big houses, luxury items and amazing exotic vacations, being if not the most important things about having a
lot
 of
money
, the most valued as well as liked one.
On the other hand
, not only helping others is something rich people do in only punctual occasions, but
also
 is something which doesn't necessarily require having a millionaire wage. A good example of
this
 is the volunteer programs, which allow people to help the most de
sfavorables o
nes, especially in a
lot
 of undeveloped countries. Volunteers provide simply basic survival things
such
 as food, water and medicines, without having to pay anything.
In addition
, people who face the reality of a volunteer not only feel helpful, but the ri
chness b
Suggestion
richer
ecause of their contribution. In conclusion, I think that far from being the best aspect about richnesses,
money
 doesn’t play a big role when it comes to help other people. On the opposite side, people who have less
money
 use to be more helpful as well as rich.
