A cousin of mine works at 'Albert Hein' (dutch chain of grocerystores) and complains constantly that only the 'fat cats' profit from increasing sales when his petty salary stays the same. When I say no one is stopping him from cutting back on smoking and investing that money in Albert Hein shares so he will be entitled to a share of the profits, all I get is a blank stare and more wailing on how unfare life is. Pathetic. I know what you mean.

Firstly, in the article, I did provide a "disclaimer" of sorts to point out that when I use the word "poor" in article, I'm not talking about the really, really poor. I'm talking about all people that don't feel that they have financial abundance. Secondly, you are correct that most people don't have access to some of the types of investments that the wealthy have access to, but a key point in my blog here is that opportunities to financial growth are open to almost everyone. You don't particularly need preferred stock and IPOs to build wealth. Budget brokers provide plenty of tools that almost everyone can access to invest in a variety of different things, and if one shops around, one can find some great opportunities for themselves. -Matt Hi FinEngr, thanks for your comment.

Whereas the "rich" have access to: preferred stock, IPOs, discounted fees, etc the "poor" may only have access to payday loans or lottery tickets (took this from John Bogle's Enough - check out the posts, I think I included the quote). If bank's charge smaller accounts monthly maintenace fees, or investing costs X per trade - the "poor" can be priced out of building real wealth...
