Mizan, there are wealthy people who deserve your anger, but I don't think Erin is one of them.

Look at the the credit card industry which drains people through exorbitant interest rates and unfairly high fees, the automobile industry which doesn't do enough to assure its vehicles don't pollute the environment, the meat industry which cruelly slaughters billions of animals.

Erin, in contrast, gives people psychic readings, and writes really excellent, inspiring articles for free.

In fact they are of a very high value to the rich.
You would not be able to feel rich, if there were no poor.
I guess there are probably _some_ rich people who like to feel like they're an elite or something with lots of little people they can look down on, but, others truly do want everyone to experience as much wealth and abundance as they themselves have.

So if you strive to be rich...it means that there will always be poor.
OK, then, my new goal is to strive to make everyone on earth rich, including myself... Or at least, everyone who won't abuse their wealth by using it to hurt others.

Best wishes,
Apollia
