Why can't I have rich friends. I really need some cash, even though I have a job. But it only pays bills.?

It sounds like you only want rich friends so you can get their money, that doesn't sound like friendship at all to me.

Like things tend to attract each other. Whiners attract whiners, rich attracts rich and integrity attracts integrity. If you are poor and have poor friends, that should tell you something.

If you want a better class of friends than you have now, you need to become a better class of person. I don't mean just in terms of how you dress, how you behave, talk or dress but also in terms of your attitude. If you have the attitude of ignorance or deception, you won't get very far. If you are a taker and not a giver, you won't get very far. A lot of rich people give a lot of money to charitable causes. If you were to give a nice donation to attend a charity dinner or other event, you could probably rub elbows with some rich people there, but it would force you to give before you receive, which is usually the way the world works anyway. If you want something, you have to give something first.

Frankly I would suggest you stop concentrating on trying to meet rich people so you can try and take advantage of them (and if they made their money themselves, chances are they aren't that stupid anyway) and start working on yourself. Educate yourself in how rich people invest their money. Study how rich people got rich in the first place. Figure out what habits they have that you don't and what habits you have that are standing in your way. Are you spending a lot of your money on crap instead of investing it in things that will give you an excellent return with low risk? Are you investing in your own financial education so you can find and identify good investment deals and identify the risks involved? If no, then you aren't even trying and will probably never be rich until you do. By the way, you will never get rich from your job in all likelihood. It just won't happen. You're an employee whose worth is a multiple of what you're actually paid (otherwise what would be the point of hiring you) and you're taxed at the highest rates because you pay employment taxes (social security, unemployment, medicare, etc) plus the government gets its money first and your expenses are after taxes, not before. There are some of the reasons rich people get rich and stay rich, its because they know how to work the system in their favor. Learn the system and you can work it to your advantage too by forming investment vehicles, businesses and other things. But it takes time, motivation, patience and an investment in yourself. Stop trying to leech off of others and start trying to learn from them. So to answer your question...that's why you can't have rich friends. Of course if it were me, I never use the word can't. I would rephrase the question to say "How can I have rich friends" and then figure out what I need to do in order to make that happen.

To put it another way, rich people are often good at turning trash into cash. Poor and middle class on the other hand often turn what little cash they have into trash. Which do you do? Figure that out and you'll be on your way.
