    Comparing a million dollars to a billion dollars is like comparing one dollar to a thousand dollars.

      While that is absolutely true, the millionaire still has the biggest things in common with a billionaire. They will never have to worry about a lack of money. They will never have to choose between clothes or food. And they will never be forced to keep a job, because without it they will literally die due to lack of medical insurance.

      The millionaire isn’t your friend either, they’re just a wannebe billionaire.

      Yeah a billionaire buys a million dollar house as easily as a millionaire buys an expensive TV or pretty good gaming pc as easily as a person with only a thousand dollars buys a cheap soda
