"That good parents are better than rich parents."
"Idea that having the money = having the controls, and being shocked when you’re just not impressed,."
"Married a rich person. Regular problems arise but also unbelievably silly problems that only happen when you have too much money and no real problems so you gotta make some up. Extended family is building a 2 million dollar custom home in a rural area and are deeply distraught that the specialty plumbing expert they need to fly in from Norway in will cost $$$ to get a *consult,* which does not include install nor the inevitable future maintenance. Dawg you do not need fancy European plumbing in rural Idaho trust me."
"Generally they can't cook well, but somehow have the best kitchen gear."
"Not dated but was best friends with. They will never truly be able to even begin to comprehend your struggles, and therefore they will constantly dismiss and minimize your problems, which will lead you to be extremely frustrated. Trying to explain to someone that you can’t afford takeout and need them to do their dishes right now so you can cook, while they are telling you to just order out and put it on a credit card, most of the time it’s not worth the friendship."
"I learned that every family has similar issues, rich people can just solve them quicker. ."
"That they are often insulated from the experience of peasant life. I was working 12 hour shifts in an industrial kitchen trying to save up enough for my next semester of college. Her friend (whose house had a fully stocked kitchen that only 'the staff' ever used) heard that I was working to pay for school and therefore could not take time off to go on a vacation. She took a moment to think about my situation, looked concerned with her furrowed brow, and then finally asked "why don't you just tell your parents? school is a good thing, of course they'll want to pay for that."."
"Equestrianism is a ***thing***
Also, pretty much any labor you can imagine, there is a service pool you can hire for it."
"Money insulates the family from accountability. The behavior I'd see out of them sometimes over the smallest things was shocking."
"No matter how humble and rational one is, dating someone several tax brackets higher will test one's ego and self worth."
"That most are actually way more humble than your larping rich person. Theres a huge difference in how the woman with the Gucci belt, LV bag, and a negative balance will treat you vs. The man in head to toe TJ Maxx but has 2mil in his account."
"That even when they struggled in the early days, most have them forgotten what it’s like to not have money. They lose touch with reality real quick. A couple thousand here and there is nothing, meanwhile we live paycheck to paycheck(ish) and they cant understand why."
"They are so poor all they had was money."
"I learned how to play golf.
Her dad always wanted to chat with me about my future, plans, business opportunities, college choices.... Etc.
And he always wanted to discuss these over a round of golf at the country club.
I really hate golf.
Also, apparently $100k means nothing? Dude literally offered to buy me a new Mercedes, and have my old beater truck "disposed of"."
"I find wealthy men make the best lovers.
Is that true?
No, but if you tell them that sometimes they give you their credit card and let you loose in the mall for an hour."
"Money can't buy good mental health."
