My sister won a good sized settlement once, well more than a year's pay for her. Since it was her employer settling, the payment would be treated as taxable salary. She talked to an accountant to see of there was anything she could do to save money on taxes, like spreading the payments over 2 or 3 years. A couple of days later, the accountant called and said she could possibly save $700 by spreading it out over 2 years, but as that wasn't a lot of money, he didn't think it was worthwhile to bother. My sister said, "Well if $700 isn't a worthwhile amount of money to you, how about if I just deduct $700 from your fees then?"
his response?
@@NewPaulActs17 I was wondering that too.
@@NewPaulActs17 As I recall, the response was basically to clear his throat and change the subject.
He was right though. Asking for a settlement to be spread out, is risky.
@@swaters5127 She chose not to try to split it up. She decided that having the entire settlement up front was, to her, a more worthwhile solution anyway.
My sister once had a friend whose family was very wealthy. At that time were a family of 6 living in a single-wide mobile home. My sister's friend said she enjoyed visiting our family because we were so much fun, and that most of the time when she was at home she was by herself.
the grass is always greener
wealthy people spend their energy on their career or business and poor people spend their energy on other people
I grew up very poor. There was a "north of the train tracks" section of kids with doctor, lawyer, rich parents type place. Those kids came to our little dirty house to play because we had more fun lol.
Just shows that having lots of money without any effort does not automatically include manners, consideration, intelligence, knowledge, courtesy.
In my experience it almost always precludes it .
It's almost like someone in the family married a bimbo and the stupid genes spread
I remember my middle class friends wanting to order pizza and me trying to explain to them that I had no money:
"Let's get some pizza!"
"I have no money."
"We can hit an ATM."
"I have NO money."
"Aw, c'mon, you can afford one treat."
"I. Have. NO. Money."
Been there.
Maybe, if it happens again.. get a sledgehammer and ask who will be the lookout?
Had a similar situation: told my stepmother we had no money to buy Xmas presents , so not bothered if we got any that year. She clearly didn’t hear/believe me. I ended up selling some stuff in order to buy presents - she was SHOCKED! She clearly didn’t understand what no money meant.
In honor of my friend Marta, who sadly passed away being too young: she came from a wealthy family but would never talk about it. It took me some time to find out when I met her. She was actually quite ashamed of some members of her family because she understood that you can't make people who have less than you uncomfortable. When she was old enough to move out, she started saving and eventually bought her own apartment, instead of asking mom & dad for one of their properties or the money to buy it. The only kind of rich person I could ever be friends with.
You literally judge people as being bad, if they became successful. Wow.
@@mikeg3439 No, not really. I don't like rich people who make others feel bad about not being like them, as my comment says. And I don't forget that rich people are the ones who traffick drugs, guns or human beings, the ones that contaminate our cities and towns with pesticides, deny access to health or even food to many others because they create the conditions that make many people poor by force. And a long list of eteceteras. Those I don't like.
What surprises me is that you equate riches with success, when many rich people inherited their money or stole it. You don't get filthy rich by being an honest, law-abiding citizen. And you can be very successful in ways that don't make you rich.
Many times, when rich people reply, they're not clueless at all; they just want to show of their wealthiness...
@@janesmith5967 Good for you! My comment started with: "Many times...". I too know wealthy people who are just like any other and not flaunting their opulence.
I live in the Netherlands and we have a more down to earth attitude towards richness: flaunting is not done...
you can usually see the difference. It's quite obvious when they are generally confused and when they are just using the first excuse they have for flaunting
After all it's rare for someone rich to ever have any need for subtleties
@@wisteria3032 Rich women are often not the sharpest tool in the drawer...
@@eknaap8800 Rich men too. I had my share of rich idiots. (mostly depends on how they got rich or what were their families' expectations. for example if you started out poor or if your family gives you a thorough education because you are the one who is supposed to inherit the family name you will usually be shrewd but intelligent. Most of the people in these situations are men which is why rich women are usually seen as having lower iq than blondes).
But nothing in the world - nothing - can beat the idiocy of rich teenagers.
AGREED
I was in a store and asked how much this lil change purse was.he looked so offended I asked and in a lowered voice he says "if you have to ask the price,it's too expensive for someone like you" not sure why,but I suppressed the urge to punch him in his smuge mug.jerk.
Yesterday I was shopping for headphones and asked the employee for help. He showed me the right aisle and almost pushed me away from the lowest prices saying smth like “you don’t even want to look there”. No, my guy, sadly I want and I will T-T
He then said smth about how if you don’t get the pricy ones, you shouldn’t get anything at all. Well…
@@maryianna912 He's kinda right. Being poor is _expensive._ You end up buying cheap stuff which works poorly and is of such shoddy workmanship it wears out quickly. Ideally you buy quality and have it for life, but being poor that's not really an option. It's one of the reasons the bourgeoisie are so contemptuous of the poor, claiming they make bad choices. We can't _afford_ to wait for sales, buy in bulk, and pay for the best quality when we're struggling just to feed ourselves.
Some of those Walmart employees are getting too cocky.
@@NoJusticeNoPeace Yes, sometimes referred to as the "Boots Theory".
@@darrenrobinson9041 HA ,HA
I once worked for Beard Frames out of Portland back in the early 90s. We were paid just a tiny bit over minimum wage. One time when the owner was in Paris taking watercolor painting lessons, he sent out a company wide memo telling the employees they should come right over and take lessons with hims. Of course, he wasn’t willing to cover our expenses. What an a$$.
The height of his STOOPIDITY 🙄
The girl is in debt. Got asked to be a bridesmaid and the m of the bride offered a loan not even to pay part. Wow.
But I'm sure the interest would have been at a reasonable rate.
It's actually "poor rich" then. It would be tacky to offer a loan. Truly wealthy people just say, "our treat, the important thing is that we want you to be with us." :)
When I had just started a new job I was sent to pay the Registration on a new work truck. The clerk at the Department of Transport (your DMV) did the paperwork and asked me for the $1200.00 fee. Work hadn't given me any money, so I rang them to say what had happened and I was told "just pay it & we'll reimburse you". I had to say out loud, in a crowded setting, that I didn't have $1200.00. There was shocked silence on the end of the phone & I had to go back to work & let somebody else deal with it. Apparently that was standard practice for them, employess paying for things & getting reimbursed later. Guess they hadn't hired a "poor" person before.
Sounds like BS. They should have a company card for crap like that. We provide them for our employees.
@@BBMc107 Apparently its quite common.. horrible to expect employees to pay out of their own money for anything a company needs/wants.
@@Goldenhawk583 Agreed. I was not denying the OP. I was explaining how it should be done, not how they inappropriately handle it.
@@BBMc107 I agree with you, sorry for not making that clear:)
@@Goldenhawk583 It is funny how we expect trolling, so apologize for agreeing with each other, trying not to offend. 💕
Once a woman who knew very well I was living hand-to-mouth vented about the waterfall and hanging gardens she was building around her swimming pool: "I've already spent seven million, and it STILL isn't the way I want it!" She had the decency to look down and, after a moment of awkward silence, ask me, "And how are you?"
@Dan Nguyen OK, thanks for asking. I had about 75 dollars in cash that week and considered myself pretty lucky.
@Dan Nguyen At least you were satisfied with your situation ✌
Gonna be honest, my wife sold her business and got money. She has been angry and miserable ever since coming into that money. She seemed happier, honestly, when we were struggling.
That one at 3:00 about the new apartment made me snort. I've lived in places people have died in, let alone lived in.
It is absurd isn't it? There are many houses around the world that are hundreds of years old.
... I mean isn't this the normal thing to do? or what you just burn a house down every single time you have a funeral?
People like this are the reason we're gonna live like rats in a cage in a few years time.
my rich online friend actually makes me laugh- he's so disconnected from reality but he's a sweet guy, never judgy just genuinely confused. Once he texted me at an ungodly hour asking me to explain what loan sharks were (he was reading a manhwa I recced) and he was absolutely stunned that people had to put up with such bull because of financial situations. He got confused when I told him I couldn't whale for a game because: "Why not just use your allowance? Your parents won't know."
Sweet summer child.
That's a good friend 🙌
so why do we not tax the rich....? Would it REALLY MATTER if a "billionaire" ONLY had 900 million....? there are over 1200 private billionaires in the USA - why is that allowed..?
Because for some reason poor people vote Republican and they keep giving the rich more tax cuts 🤷♀️
@@mayberelevant3237 yup --- if you are poor, female or a Veteran & STILL vote Republican - you are too dumb to know that you are being insulted.
The rich don't care about us. The private school kids are told the public school children are their slaves from a very young age. I was told by an Elite 12 year old when I didn't know a trivia question, "that's what you get for going to public school." I was in my mid twenties and he was 12. He grew up to be an even worse adult who left on his 10 year reunion page, "they hated us then and they hate us now." They gleefully get off on how much they make us suffer and can do nothing about it. No joke.
Being rich is not an actionable offense. I know what sort of people think it is, and I don't like them.
Murica- the “land of the free” 🙄😒
When I lived at Lake Tahoe back in the mid 70s (I ran an auto parts store), I was invited, by an acquaintance, to a party on a yacht out on the lake.
Long story short: The young lady whose birthday (19) it was, did nothing but bitch about how her daddy (CEO of an aircraft maker, don't recall which one) was such an A-hole because he only gave her $250,000 a year for "Mad Money" (equivalent to about a million now) with her multi-million dollar, everything paid, lakefront house, yacht, Porche convertible, and chauffeured limosine, just to name what I saw.
I just sat there quietly, sipping a drink that I had no idea what it was, and watching some of those idiots snorting what had to be several thousand dollars worth of cocaine.
The next time the little launch brought more people, I got on it to go back to shore!

@@NoJusticeNoPeace That's priceless.
I have known very few "rich" people over the years and they were pretty normal, non judgemental folk. The generalization made here is very broad - like saying all redheads have foul tempers.
My boss told me my car was a mess and asked why I didn’t park it in the garage. “
I don’t have a garage.”
“Well, build one”. On $6.75 an hour. I’ll get right on that.
I know some who "act" as tho they're in that "rich" person bracket but like the song..champagne taste on a beer budget🤣🤣🤣
I feel sorry for all of you living in America. I know Australia still has its problems, but needing to work 3 jobs just to survive there is cruel. I'm not rich, just a forklift driver, but at least here, most people get paid a decent wage so they dont need extra jobs just to get by.😢
At this point, now it's expected of us. Several employers now give out work schedules specifically arranged for you to have time for a second job. Nevermind that the minimum wage does not at all reflect the cost of living. We live to work, here. Not work to live. And what's more, even with two jobs, nevermind three, there is absolutely nowhere in this country that any one person can afford the jacked up rent costs of an apartment. We are back to generational homes. Because the parents need the kids' help, and the kids need a roof over their heads. Land of the Free and Home of the Brave is now Land of the Slaves and Home of the Broke. Low income rent where I live is either equal to or greater than the mortgage on our house. And the best part? The Boomer generation didn't take care of ANYTHING over here. So loads of houses on the market that are for sale anywhere from $30,000 to $70,000 still have another 30 to 70 grand in repairs that need to be done. So it's also Land of the Money Pits. We're not even surviving, here. We're just alive. There's also a hiring shortage. Loads of people do actually want to work. My girlfriend is applying to multiple places on a daily basis and has actually received formal "Please stop applying because we're not actually hiring" letters. I saw it coming one week into the lock down. All the businesses that stayed open discovered they could force their stores to run on skeleton crews. So now almost everything is short staffed as a result, and they STILL won't hire more people. My grocery store has eight manned registers and eight self checkouts. Wanna know how many staff are working? On a good day? THREE. We run ourselves ragged scrambling for work when no one wants to pay more than a handful of employees, and college graduates with Masters' degrees are expected after years of loans and steadily falling into debt to work for the same pay as a high school drop out. Masters' and PhD's are now equal to a G.E.D. or Good Enough Diploma, as the joke goes.
To say it's bad here is the biggest understatement of the century. I'm sorry for ranting, I'm just really mad the whole situation.
Yeah, but the lockdown showed we have WAY MORE FREEDOM. Over here they showed y'all po po punching out old ladies, arresting pregnant women and all sorts of really totalitarian state stuff. You are owned by your government and they come and take you away whether you want to be taken or not. It's not like that here.
@@redvalentinos1933 Watch You've Got Mail and Sleepless in Seattle. We just did and it took us back to the 90's and to see the prices of stuff, knowing the dollar has only gone down since then - you're not crazy and you're not ranting - it's the truth what you say. BIG HUGS!!!!!!!!! I'm am so very sorry for all that are hurting right now. Deep sigh. It must stop. Be well and take care!! :)
@@redvalentinos1933 sounds rough red, Here in Australia minimum wage is around $24 an hour, the industry I work in is paying lawnmower operators $38 an hour plus 10% superannuation, cannot get people to fill positions.
@@johnstirling6597 where I live, $13.50. And they don't want you working full time, because then they have to pay benefits. So they keep just enough people scheduled at 39.5 hours a week, 40 and up is full time, for the stores to be open. And there are parts of this country where minimum wage is still $7.50. And let's say you're looking for an at-home job online in state A with one wage, and you find a job that's originally in state B with a lower wage, and remember its an online job from home, employers from state B won't want to pay state A's minimum wage
Wow! Asking about why someone doesn’t have name brand anything, but especially something as silly as soda, is just plain rude! You can’t blame that on cluelessness. Side note: There are many generics that are, literally, the same thing. Of course this is not true of everything, but snobs would be surprised how often they are paying more simply for a name.
I know some people who are rich now, but grew up dirt poor. You don't forget your roots.
Some do ! Oh , the stories I could tell ! Worked w/ race & show horses & also in upscale interior design - both areas full of folks w/ rags to riches new money or others who inherited wealth ; some were nice / generous & others not so nice / rude . Either you're a good person or you're not ! 🤔
Asked a lady behind a cosmetic counter in a mid-level department store if the 4 or so carat diamond ring she was wearing was real. She got a look on her face like I asked if she ate poo, and said yes. I was just astonished by the size honestly.
Disneyland and Disney world can be expensive though. It's not all sunshine and smiles.
last i saw it was 130 bucks each to get in.......
@@csnide6702 And it's a long way off if you don't live California or the South.
I knew someone who at age 16 genuinely believed that people chose the jobs they wanted- the concept of NEEDING a job for money was just not there. I didn't know where to start. How far back does this lack of knowledge go?? do they know what money is ?
It's when someone married a bimbo in the family, the stupid goes through the genes
As someone who comes from a country where everyone is pretty much on the same "middle class" (low and upper) these genuinely scare me. I don't think I ever met a "rich" person.
Same here 🙋
I work in a grocery store in a very upper-class community. One time, I overheard two customers talking about which destination resorts they each planned on going for their big spring getaways, and one of them mentioned Baha Mar. I'd recently seen a documentary about the place, so I chimed in "Thats not even a hotel, that's a small city!"
One of the ladies looked at me and said "Oh, have you been?" ...I was standing behind a deli counter in a grocery store wearing an apron. I drive a Kia, and sometimes when I'm feeling frisky, I'll treat myself to Stouffer's instead of Banquet. But yeah, I definitely make enough money to go to a place like Baha Mar.
I was born into poverty. Rich people asking me "why don't you" was something I used to inspire me. Not act like a victim about. Yeah it's hella hard to climb from nothing to success, and I'm not done climbing. It sure is hella easy to whine and play the victim though, how other people's words define you.
3:22. I could have a hundred and eleventy-six bajillion pounds in each of seventy-three bank accounts, and I STILL wouldn't set foot in the mouse's kingdom!
5:20. That's nothing to do with being rich, that's just being an a**hole!
Way back when I was an apprentice mechanic and our wages were paid straight into our bank accounts, most of the main banks decided that you had to keep £100 in your account to avoid charges. I was paid £52 a week. My boss at the time suggested that I just left two weeks wages in there, then I wouldn't have to worry about it.
"Yes George, I can just go without my wages for a fortnight and start again afterwards....."
Like you, I'd never go to Mauschwitz.
I’m in Arkansas. Don’t hear about all these things. We do feel city people are a little different.
1:02 What is this store brand soft drinks? I don't think we have it in India. Here Miranda Sprite and Coco cola is what's sold everywhere. Seeing these rich ppls lifestyle...makes me think of my own country, India. Here whether u r rich or poor, we are all taught the value of money and most of them are not haughty. They wear regular clothes too (Unless u r like TV celebrity) and drive in ordinary cars (Unless u r politician) U can see ppl from almost all walks of life in grocery stores, regular clothing stores and parks. Here ppl want to experience ordinary life, be it rich or not. That's how ppl stay rich here. Save money. Don't spend much. 4:26 Yeah that was a dumb question to begin with. If they r the child of a rich person, why would there be loans to begin with? 4:56 Mighty generous of those rich folks. Here no matter how rich or not rich u r, we go crazy for sales. Anything to save an extra rupee. 6:19 Guess ur mom wants her place without guests in it. In the west they don't live together like a lot of Asians do. Most times at age 18, they move out. 7:35 Fast fashion is also a thing in the west. I still own my clothes from a decade ago. It's solid pure cotton and a bit of silk. I wear them during special occasions. Indians make long lasting clothes.
Different Strokes for Different Folks,
as they say. It's too bad everyone doesn't have that mindset.
As for the young lady needing some help: Here in the West, most parents try to help their children, at least the families I know, and her mother thinking she should be able to "Save" non-existent money is the height of arrogance in my view!
"Store brand" are generics manufactured by the stores themselves. They are cheaper than name brand. So Coca-Cola is the name brand, but most grocery stores will also have their own no-name cola on the shelf beside it which is cheaper. It's regarded as being of inferior quality (whether or not it really is), and something only people worried about money buy, so it's a symbol of poverty.
I have always loved 'vintage' clothing. Things made from 50's and 60's. The style and frankly, better made. Would love to see and own Indian clothes. They look so comfortable!
@@NoJusticeNoPeace Not made by the stores themselves but simply carrying the stores labels. It may differ with some products (cola soft drink etc) but in many instances they're made in the same factories and on the same production lines as the 'name' brands.
@@michaelmclachlan1650 yes...I'm from india & have worked in one of the factories...We made jeans for Levi as well as other brands too..As per their rigorous standards....In fact most of the western brands out source their clothes from india, sri Lanka, Bangladesh & china...
My roommate, freshman year of college had her own checking account (this was years before bank cards) and would come back from a weekend at home with high end shirts and dresses. The closet was made to hold both students' clothing. My stuff was draped over a chair or hung on the outside of the door. I got 3 bucks from home each week.
"@missmatlock" the lady at 7:47, I hardly feel sorry for her. She apparently has been telling everyone who asks her where she lives that she lives in a posh area, until she met someone who DOES live in the actual posh neighborhood, who then is appalled by where she actually lives, likely the outskirts of the posh residential area. Live by the sword, die by the sword. Why would you endeavor to deceive people into thinking you are living a lush life?
Why would you endeavor to play into their snobbery if you can avoid it?
Should she have lied about where she lived though? Just so it wouldn't give people the 'wrong impression'? 🤔
I'm going to guess that they moved to the area for the school system, but could only afford an apartment instead of a McMansion. She's not really deceiving anyone, just avoiding the conversation so people won't dig any further, I hardly got the impression that she was advertising it.
That's a strange take. If they ask her, why shouldn't she answer?
To be fair, I'm not exactly rich and night clubs aren't the first thing I thought of. Like who would bring their family to a place like that?
My brother has a friend that’s pretty loaded, but he didn’t even know until like a year after knowing him. Dude’s just a funny, down to earth kinda guy and doesn’t flaunt it. Only reason my bro even found out was he was looking into moving out closer to his workplace, and his friend said he was living in his parents’ future retirement condo in that area and could rent him a room. They gave it to him DIRT CHEAP, significantly less than the average apartment/room rental. Haven’t met the guy, but we like him. Apparently his parents are the same way; they decided how much to rent the room out for.
Then you've got your eccentrics. Like the old farmer who made a healthy income but literally took his cash out to a remote location on the farm and buried it. Never told his wife or kids (or anyone else) where. Then he died. All those years of hard work and he left his family with an empty bank account.
literally my grandfather.
My great grandfather buried his railroad salary - decent money in Alka Seltzer bottles all over his property. The immediate family didn't locate the bottles. He lived in a shack, dirt flood, chickens, rain water and a still hid somewhere the feds couldn't fit it!
I run a storage facility and I tell renters to always have at least one other person on their lease and let people know where their stuff is . It’s always men that I get who don’t wAnt anyone to know about their unit . Then they die or end up in the hospital , goes past due and I sell it at auction . Stuff is gone! Stupid !
I want to move to Australia
Idk what's wrong with these rich aside from everything
There have been numerous strong arm and armed robberies for high end watches. everytime I see a story about one I get mad that it's happening from a philosophical point of view because that's all I can afford.
I must admit I don’t have much sympathy for these victims either, if you’re walking around with a $20,000.00 + watch on your wrist 🤷♀️
Reminds of my aunt's wedding coming up, love her yo death but she makes way more than both of my parents yearly and expects us to have enough money to go to her wedding which is in a different country and she wants to do all of these activities that don't cost a lot for two but I'm in a family of 6, sometimes people just don't care or are just clueless🤷♀️
Honestly I don’t think using a passport itself as ID has much to do with being well off or not, but more with the country you live in.
Where I live pretty much (if not) everyone has a passport but not necessarily an ID. (We also use the passport for ID)
Yeah, where I live you need to have either a passport and/or an ID card, but here the ID card is the one used much more. The lack of official documents in the US is just weird to me
A passport in Australia costs $308, so poor folk here don't have them.
I'm a senior and live in Canada. I don't have a passport, and neither did either of my parents. We never left the country (except for my Dad to fight WW II)
Hmmm...
Free provisional driving licence from UK DVLA as ID.... or a ~£90 passport....
Decisions, decisions....
I'm reminded of the story of one of the Vanderbilt kids who woke up one night and wanted a snack. The servants for some reason weren't available. She didn't know where the kitchen was and the house was so big she got tired of looking for it!
Bruh
At a youth program. Something about one of the parents being a "coupon clipper". Silly me thinking grocery store coupons to make ends meet. They meant treasury bill coupons.
6:30 - Is lamb considered rich people food in the US? I get that it's quite a bit more expensive than your more routine beef or chicken, but even growing up poor in the UK we'd have a lamb dinner a few times a year. I think I'd have also been a little surprised to meet an adult who had never even heard of mint sauce or jelly.
Yes, lamb is a special treat in North America, similar in price to a fancy steak. It’s not necessarily super expensive but it’s not something that people of modest means splurge on.
Currently good quality lamb costs about 4 times what boneless skinless chicken breast costs and more than steak, as much as 3 times more. Here in California if you have lamb it is usually in the form of lamb shish, kebabs, in an Armenian or Greek restaurant. Hence no mint jelly or sauce. My grandmother was from England, of Scottish descent so I've had leg of lamb or chops with mint sauce.
I knew of lamb with mint jelly only from English novels, and I can remember thinking of leeks as an aristocratic vegetable from the Old World.
My maternal grandfather was of Irish extraction, so we did have roast lamb from time to time at their house. I knew of mint jelly, but it wasn't on the table.
Maybe just coincidence, but the last 3 times I bought lamb (over the course of about 2 years) I hurt my teeth on tiny bone fragments in the meat. I don't do lamb anymore.
Here's a novel idea, from a working class guy who went to a state school, worked his butt off doing a full-time night shift while at university, studied hard and after graduating and spending a few years drifting, set up his own business and was able to retire early; stop whingeing. Nothing is free. Don't expect handouts. No one gave me anything and I never expected anything. It's the world we live in.
There’s a huge gap in comprehension between folks who’ve never had to worry about money and those who’ve spent their entire adult life being very careful with it. Living hand to mouth for several decades in a state where the median income was over $53k and never once earning more than $20k was quite the challenge.
My brother had a well to do friend whom I did not like very much. I was 62, living in Florida in an RV campground barely getting by with the rent, trailer payment, etc. because I was on social security disability due to mental health problems and back problems. It was in the middle of nowhere, there was no public transportation and I did not own a vehicle. I couldn't afford one. This butthole knew all of this. So through Facebook messenger one day he contacts me out of the blue and he asks how it's going and I reminded him of all the aforementioned issues and he asks me why don't I get a job? I was furious. So I told him that if somebody who was a little better off could maybe see their way to helping me out with a little money it might improve my situation. He responded "well, good luck with that. ttyl". Wasn't long after that my brother told him to f*** off for good.
What the heck made Nov 12, 2021 so crazy?
Would love to hear the stories from the other side. If rich people learn something by meeting poor people, or if they just shrug it off as “your problem”.
I guess rich and poor is relative, and I better ask myself if I might have been on the other side of that all the same…
In the US, it is very much seen as a you problem. We still heavily prescribe to the myth of a meritocracy and that wherever someone is (class/financial wise) is where they deserve because the either did or did not work hard enough. I've had a very rough history (abused, disabled, homeless, chronically ill, living in poverty on government benefits) and often when I talk about what it's like to someone middle class or above, they cannot comprehend, go oh shucks, and are never heard from again. The higher their income the worse it is.
There are of course exceptions, but it's hard being around people who live in extravagance when you can't even afford your medication or a roof over your head.
no need to be rich, because some stories are just mad. some people are just effing poor and everybody with 100 bucks to their name would be rich compared to them.
This isn’t as egregious as some of these stories, but one time my now-husband asked his parents to pay for something for him, and he would pay them back later. It was several hundred dollars, and I was shocked. I told him later that I would never, ever ask my own parents such a question, bc they didn’t have extra money to spare. That’s just one example of the differences between how we grew up (there are many). Obviously, I have a lot more anxiety about money than he does too.
rich humans are poor and poor humans are rich
They say money can't buy happiness, which is true, but I wouldn't mind having a bit more, even if I succumb to its misery!
@@marktwain2053 a good job where you like to go, where you get every month a good salary to pay your bills and some necessary things in your life are enough
no misery
no succumb
no stress
just a good life
have to think about to send a CV to a work place where I can work with 🐳🐋they have such a big compassion and empathie. They would never bully, abuse, rape you or making jokes about you
Not always true... I'm the worse for my financial situation. The whole poverty package has ruined 2 romantic relationships, my relationship with my mother, my view of people, and destroyed my optimism in life. Don't romanticize poverty. Poverty can kill the soul....
@@shutterchick79 as you all know, I am a "poor" person myself
I know the "poverty package"
"rich" humans with money have also problems and struggle with things in life, they don have a better life only because they have money
it is not the poverty what can kill your soul if you think about it
It is not the money
I don`t care if other humans have more money
I just want to have a job where I like to go to get my salary to pay my bills.
Most of these outrageous, insensitive, utterances and gaffs are made up worthless clickbait created by folks who just wanna be seen and "ahhhhd" to. Come on people being poor is bad enough without making up bad fictional episodes.
Wealthy people prefer older architecture. And have no issue living where others have lived before.
in a town where my sister used to live in Germany, there's a castle which a millionaire bought and is living there happily lol
Not understanding the term CLUB isn't poverty. Its stupidity.
Oh no, the rich have their Clubs and they are SNOBS about it. My boss's club, you had to eat at least 2 meals a month "at the club" or be booted out. In Hawaii, they get their own beachfronts and if you read their newsletters, they talk about how their life is a life of play and leisure. Watch The Descendants with George Clooney, Hawaii has the dumbest rich people I have ever met. Like on the East Coast if you're a trust fund kid and you're stupid, you're worse than a poor person because you have no excuse not to be successful, but in Hawaii they pride themselves on doing as little as possible. "Volunteer" work only. Funnily enough, they usually run the homeless shelters allowing rent prices to soar while they buy their children million dollar homes on the beach. My boss's kids all just got beach front homes in the past two years while the country is going homeless.
They are paid for from birth, passed through private school and college - they are in the Club in the womb until death. They do nothing to earn it and oftentimes can't even pass basic English or Math when they get to the fancy colleges. And they don't have to worry about a career or even a savings account ever in their life. They have live in maids and nannies and literally their Clubs are a part of their identity and they're snobby about it. Like, oh, he's from Outrigger, that's the "poor" club when it's still thousands a year. LOLOLOL!! Oi! The rich are like watching toddlers navigate the world. I was offered to join a club and I declined. They be shocked I didn't want to join. LOL!! "As if!" LOL!! Be well and take care. :)
@@juliebella1221 But, you understand the word club? You don't mistake it for a bar?
@@swaters5127 I totally think dance club first. Lol! However, when you work for the trust funded their vencular is not ours. Lol! One friend's Dad owned 5th Avenue the clothing company and it's not a shopping spree. Stores are their personal closets. Lol! And they don't go to Napa like we'd say thinking wine tasting. They go to their friends vineyard and compare to their other friend's vineyard in Tuscany. Lol!
@@swaters5127 - ah, you say - clearly displaying a massive ignorance of other uses for the word
@@danielcrafter9349 Other than a weapon, tool or deformity thats all I've heard club used for besides bar/dancing and Elite playground nope I have no idea what else club means.
