Money Goes

This is abstract, from the discussion about money a friend of mine and I had. I thought its pretty good as a post.

She: That experiment about the 8 monkeys** is amazing.. it says so much about the human behavior..
you can Actually put that example in almost all spheres of life.
1.religion
2.societal values

i have always wondered how the possession of money can influence the thinking. people with loads of money have not an ounce of fear while venturing out in a miniskirt.
speak of that word in a village and see the uproar...

Me: They feel differently because they have been brought up that way. Money broadens the mind....
Money doesn’t broaden mind.. the place where you live does... there are many rich girls who wont wear a mini skirt...
For ex: lets take Arab... they will kill the girl... not that they are poor.. all of them are rich.... just its not in their culture....
There are tribes in Africa.. were girls and women roam around topless... and dress you would say less then a mini skirt... that doesn’t mean they are rich... most of them live in huts with not light and sanitation.... its their tribal culture..

It does not matter you are rich or no... it the culture.. most of the girls who do so.. (mini skirt) are attention seekers... in higher middle class and the fashion industry (mostly in India)... they need attention…. for different reasons.. Money makes you think broader.. but money many time.. takes away your ability to think...
