Warren Buffet, one of the world's most successful investors, has no debt, runs around in modest cars. In fact the really rich actually live quite modest lifestyles as you don't get to be rich by blowing your money. The ones you see on Youtube tend to be plastic millionaires, their lifestyle is funded by debt.0 -
I guess rich people are a hetrogenous group. I don't know any truly rich people but I know plenty on £200-300k and most of them have some debts. It seems a bit odd that someone on say £300k can't borrow £100k.0
