Slum Dog Billionaire

I felt that this article was a bit disturbing at first because of the vast detail in the hobos drinking alcohol and the detail of sexual intercourse, because it doesn't go in context with the reading I feel. I felt that hearing about how two rich people go and pretend to be poor to try and have fun or try something new is a bit rude because some people are in fact poor because of their up bringing and can't help it. The fact that they had money and led to a life like the article I feel fits perfectly under the typical rich person who is so bored because they have everything they want, but can't ever enjoy the intangibles in life. I feel that this article more or less discouraged me to read further every page I read.

I feel that they shouldn't have gone to a life of the poor, but rather maybe have studied it or understood their are other people out there other than rich people. When it comes down to it, part of me wants to agree with what they did living like that but my conscience says that no one should ever want to live that way. If I was in their shoes I would have told my friends to get therapy for trying to live poorly; but rather to help the poor instead of embracing it. I found that through many years of community service you learn more from the less fortunate than you do trying to live like them or act like it.
