The Rich Brother Each persons deffinition of rich is different. In The Rich Brother‚ Pete valued material things and felt that he had prospered while Donald hadn’t because the only thing Donald valued was his soul and Pete couldn’t understand that. I think that Pete’s treatment of Donald stemmed from their childhood and the feelings of jealousy towards Donald that Pete had.
