Some wealthy and some poor people are very generous. I will give examples of my own experience. Many years ago I spend my vacation in Thailand. Whilst walking through a little village, a Thai lady names Sulaika asked: "where are you going". I answered: "I am looking for a shop, I have to buy many things because I miss my bag". Sulaika: "where do you live"? I answered: "I stay at the hotel over there and my bag was not at the airport. The airport desk assistant promised that my bag will be at the hotel in 1 or 2 days". To my surprise, Sulaika understood and spoke English quite well. She said that she had a good teacher and invited me in to her house. She offered tea and showed me her family photo album. After she escorted me to the hotel and began chatting with the Receptionist in Thai. The Receptionist called the airport and the next day I was reunited with my bag. Sulaika came to see me and I had a gift for her to respect her generosity. We went back to her house, where she offered a good deal as follows: she said: "The hotel is very expensive, do you want to stay in my sister house"? I requested: "Where is your sister's house"? We went outside just a few meters next to hers was her sister's. She introduced me to her sister names Meo. We viewed the small, warm room and I accepted. A great experience spending time and getting to know the culture.
Experience from Emirates: Some years ago I enjoyed a bus journey with my son along the Abu Dhabi desert to Madina Zayed. My son began a conversation with a passenger, who worked for the police. He invited us to his family (2 wives, 8 kids). I never forget the kind hospitality and generosity his wives offered.
Here is a true story of a British man, who was very wealthy. This man had a lovely family, 2 daughters and a wife. A large house in the nice country site, horses and brand new cars. He was a business man with a high income. During the year 2009 his company faced redundancy and he found himself highly in debt. He could not come to terms with financial advisers to sell his house. One evening he was at his brother's, also a very wealthy man. James, the family man left his brother's house at night and drove back to his house. Now, the horrible truth about this sad story. He became mad and pured petrol around the house, where his family and the horses were sleeping. Then he lit the fire - killed everything that was alive.
Another true story of an American man: Wealthy, married with kids. He was so wealthy, he didn't know what to do with his money. He was extremely selfish, began to drink more alcohol and most of the time he spend in casinos. Finally his wife divorced him. Then he went to Las Vegas, lived in expensive hotels, drunk a lot of alcohol and spend in top casinos. One evening he lost all his money and he checked into a cheap motel. There was a prostitute who cared for him. She tried her best to make him stop drinking. But he became very ill and died.
I know very wealthy generous Saudi people. Their Government takes care of companies and sends monthly amounts of money to the poor. In addition, a wealthy man gave part of his own money to a charity organization. They helped many poor, hungry and starving people in Africa.
