Its interesting how different people (some people) are really the same.
Rich - poor. Educated - uneducated.
You once heard of people living in poverty, and less than poverty, turning to crime in an attempt to cope, to get ahead, to make their own way. Prisons are filled with them.
The wealthy guy, the rich guy, the advantaged would think... "what a low life", "how could they live like that", "scum of society".
Now, with the economy in meltdown, we see some of the advantaged, the very wealthy, caught in the same panic mode. The same wild animal in the cage syndrome.
Rich people turning to crime, trying to cope, and somehow hang on as their lifestyle melts around them.
What a case study in psycho-analysis.
The only difference between someone eating out of a garbage can, and someone
concerned which side of the dish to put the salad fork, boils down to a buck.
