"Money can buy a position, but not respect" Oh yes it most likely can. Because usually if you're rich you're also better educated, better mannered, smarter, more influential - that's usually how you get rich in the first place and generally people respect you for that.

 

Absolutely disagree.

Money buys service and deference, NOT respect.

 

I know many, many not rich guys that are all of what you say, except for influential. I'd take a million of them over 1 wealthy entitled person anyday.

I don't know if you are referring to millionaires or the 1%, but I only know a few "rich" people, some of whom are great guys and some are tosspots. Money never confers respect, only personality does, IMO.
