Billionaire Heiress Says Poors Should Work Harder
Gina Rinehart of Australia, reportedly the world's wealthiest woman, sent a message to all the poor people in the world saying the non-rich should stop attacking the rich and go to work. "There is no monopoly on becoming a millionaire," she writes. "If you're jealous of those with more money, don't just sit there and complain. Do something to make more money yourself—spend less time drinking, or smoking and socializing and more time working."

She was given a $75,000,000.00 pair of bootstraps by which to pull herself up.
She certainly doesn't do too much socializing looking like the way she does.
She obviously doesn't miss too many meals -- in fact, she looks like she invented a few new ones.

She should do some work of her own... at the gym.

I would call it richbitching because the rich have it so bad they have to take it out on someone and the poor are the most vulnerable in the world so why not dump all your frustration on them. Which only goes to show you being rich makes you very unhappy and isolated in your insulated and gated communities of fear of losing it all

Good lord! The poor woman! She obviously suffers from a brain disorder brought on by overeating and overdrinking... How many Surf and Turf dinners can one rich person consume at a time, anyway? This Surf and Turf brain disorder has warped the unfortunate lady's thinking processes and has blinded her to her mirror and to real life. Go on a diet! Walk around and see how people live! Disgusting.
