Did you know that studies have shown that as a person becomes more wealthy, it becomes harder on a psychological level for them to empathize with those less well off.

However further exploration of this shows that it is not merely 'being wealthy' but the feeling of being wealthy that causes this reduced empathy. It implies that a person can become wealthy without much of this problem, as long as they remain humble. That means not driving fancy cars, not surrounding themselves with the trappings of wealth.
