A Quick Observation of the Low ClassWritten by Terry Mitchell
We can all learn a valuable lesson about types of behavior and attitudes to avoid like plague, simply by observing characteristics of people we all know are low class. Being low class is not a function of lack of money or social status. I've seen rich people and those high on social ladder who were very low class. I've also observed folks who were living below poverty level and low on social scale who were very high class people. It also has nothing to do with race or ethnic background. Instead, being low class is strictly a matter of behavior and attitudes. Most of us exhibit some low class characteristics once in a while. We are all human and that's normal. However, those who exhibit more than half of these characteristics most of time need to seriously re-examine their lives. They are in danger of becoming low class, if they aren't already. We all know that low class people rarely achieve real success in life. Most successful people, on other hand, possess qualities that are complete opposite. Here are some characteristics of low class to try on for size: They have no desire to improve themselves, but they wouldn't mind having someone else come along and give them a boost. They always stand ready to guard their rights, although they don't mind trampling on someone else's. They blame others for their lack of success. Nothing motivates them more than prospect of easy money. They have no problem with ill-gotten gain. They've never heard a conspiracy theory they didn't believe. They can't express themselves verbally without use of profanity.
