Wherever you will plead

There are certain thoughts about the bonds of friendship, many point out that more friends make a person happier and with greater well-being. I agree. But, and here's the twist, it's also common for these ties to be extensive and perennial for economic reasons. So, in this day and age, networks of close friends materialize a safety net to create bubble relationships. 

If you are wealthy, or perhaps your family, you probably had plenty of occasions in school or extracurricular activities to meet new people. Moreover, these people had the same privileges as your relatives, it's like an invisible brotherhood of peers, who study, work, travel, and do business only among themselves. Naturally, there are exceptions. Most commonly, yet, your bulky wallet ensures a solid circle of good friends, even from a tender age. 

Conversely, when you have no money or are struggling financially, you have neither the time nor resources to socialize or create new bonds. Also, If you had a precarious childhood, the friends you knew may have drifted away or you may not know about them, due to the twists and turns of living without financial stability. 

Of course, nuances including family traditions, and interactions originating in the middle class account for the complex nature of friendship. However, let me be reductionist, what I am trying to emphasize is the possible connection between continuing to have close friends and the financial security that your family provided you. And perhaps, the reasons you continue to be financially comfortable is your friends and the relationships you have cultivated over the years. 

So, if you're a loner, that may be a trigger for you to get stuck with money. 

Who knows, it's just a random thought, never an unavoidable fact.
