Disadvantages of being rich or beautiful/handsome or both!
We all know what beauty brings with it;
access to restricted places, endless favors, no ticket for breaking the traffic
rules mostly and what not? And the same goes with being rich too.
Isn’t it? I am none, though.

| That's not me! Sigh |
If I start to mention the advantages,
which I won’t because am lazy, then that will take a couple of more posts to
sum all of it!
But, to shorten the longer version with
a bad metaphor, it can be said that beauty and money are like the ultimate
weapon to escape or to take advantage of any situations. Well, Almost. Work
both ways.
I will leave the advantage part because
that is common for all of us to notice and experience in life. But, what if I
tell you the disadvantages of being beautiful or rich or both? Trust
me, ain’t drunk.
Here are a few disadvantages of it. Add
some of your own in the comment section, for when I skip something. Age
has to be blamed for my mistake.
1. They
are not considered as talented
This is the most common thing
beautiful/handsome and/or rich people get to listen on their back when they do
something big. Be it, coming first in the papers or building something great.
Or whatever. You have a better imagination. Use it.
Anything they do will be reasoned with
their hard work and commitment for it, DON’T think like this. Because it has
mostly been their money or looks that has done the trick, people say.
‘Ameer he bhaiya, asaani se jugaad betha li
hogi’
And adding to the grief, this notion
has never shifted a meter from its ground. It is affixed like the
shitty daily soaps of Indian TV channels. Gustakhi maaf ho Ekta Kapoor ji.
2. They
befriend people with hidden motives
This
is also very common. When you are beautiful/handsome, you get enough attention
all ways round that it burns people like me to the ground. Easily. Same
goes for wealthy individuals too.
Consequently, you get a mixed batch of
people associated in your life who would lick your feet and brag about you
throughout the day and continuously for weeks and weeks.
Hum mar gye he kya bhaiya? Tanik idhar bhi chaaploosi karlo.
And all this for something. May be, monetary
support or other kind of support you well know.
However, there will be a handful of
people (excluding your family) who will love you for who you
are and will be a part of your life. But, in the herd, it remains a tough task
to differentiate the good sheep or the bad sheep.
You
will always be in doubt whether people like you for who you are as a person or
for your looks or money. Period.
That is all I could think of. Would
love to have your opinion, suggestion and points about this post. Thank you for
reading.
P.S.: I love to watch Shaun The Sheep.
Do you?!
Well, I don't second any of it. The reason being, I have come across way too many beautiful and rich people in my life who are gifted both in looks and in brains.
ReplyDeleteAnd about the befriending people with hidden motives part, let me tell you that some rich people can be the best of friends ever!
It's not about beautiful/rich people being good or bad. Anyone can be good or bad. Stereotyping people by their wealth and beauty doesn't do any justice. :)
Ok. I read you opinion and you are completely right.
DeleteHowever, sorry to say but it seems like we are on different pages. Because in this post I did not showcast beautiful and rich people as villain or something.
It was just a picture of what they face in life upfront or behind their back.
Thank you for your time.

You are absolutely right. Moreover, these people have to struggle to get away from spot light to do what they actually feel like doing, which often hampers the productivity in college or work. Their god gifted beauty or family gifted money often brings with it tons of fake faces and praises that make them conscious in public and become a obstacle for growth. One gatta make ones mind and prepare oneself to cope up with all these and move ahead along with making intelligent choices and learn how to ignore mindf*ck people which is often confused with attitude.
