The only real difference between a worthless bum and a respected member of the community is how much money people think you have in the bank. The people who tell you to get a real job and have a carear when they think you are poor are the same people who would quit their job and sit on their ass enjoying life if they hit the lottery. Its a society thing, we have values that take time to be adjusted with the reality of the world. After WW1 anybody who made a dime off manufacturing war equipment was looked at like scum, these days making billions off of war/death is as American as hotdogs, baseball and Apple pie.
