The goal of the Rich vs. Poor Series is to highlight the habits that result in wealth and poverty, and explore the reasons for why a poor environment teaches habits that perpetuate poverty, and why a rich environment teaches habits that perpetuate wealth.

You can then apply these lessons to your life and improve yourself.
