What happen?
Seems to be the question.
When you spot a poor  man mentality.

Because you see money blowing in the wind.
When he se dreams of things he never had.

Women.
That creature of substance that knows how to manipulate.
Not one.
Not two.
But more than he needs to make him happy.
Kids.
Not one.
Not two.
More to the point.
He doesn't realize his monetary limits.
The sign of a poor man mentality.
What makes him?
Is himself.
But in his eyes.
It's somebody's else.

Cars.
When he should limit himself to one or two.
He trying to impress the tag along fools.
The poor man mentality that we see in society.

And when it come crashing down.
That's when he claims he should have did other things.
Like invested wisely.
Selected better financial advisors.
But he couldn't break away from no good friends.
And this is when the poor man common sense begins.
