Up or down

[BadBoyBenny]

First of all, it depends on what you consider rich. But according to most American definitions of rich, the average person is more likely to go bankrupt. However, the opportunity is there for that person to become rich. As another poster pointed out, that person is already rich on a worlwide standard.


Anyway, if the average person was likely to become rich, then the word rich would no longer have the same meaning, so I think it is a moot question.
