I really had to do some research for this one.

If you have read much of my stuff you know that on occasion, money has been tight for me. I’m familiar with poor people problems. Problems like how to pay bills, get health care, find adequate housing and putting food on the table. However, apparently, rich people have problems. So, I’m told.

It seems that being rich can bring with it different types of problems. I delved into the situation to determine what types of problems rich people have. Here’s what I came up with, and in some cases possible solutions:

1: Determining which congressmen/senators are the best investment.

Shopping the politician market can be tricky. Which one will give you the best return on your bribe, er investment? This can be complicated by what other outside interests are vying for their influence. Buying political influence can be stressful.

2: Just how much money should I spend on cosmetic surgery?

A lot of factors go into make this decision. How much does my wealth depend on my looks? If you're a Kardashian and talking beauty, you have to put your money where your mouth is. Or butt is, or whatever part of your anatomy you’re highlighting on a given day.
