Rich people things that legitimately rich people don't do?

BetterThanThou

By that I mean things that poor/average people do that are considered things mostly rich people do, but rich people don't tend to do them.
One I think would be buy Rolex watches, rich people don't tend to do that, whereas many poor/average people buy them to seem rich.

Talk about money

Carry wads of cash.

Question makes no sense.

Buy fancy clobber and spray themselves with expensive aftershave/perfumes. Most of the really wealthy people I know dress like they are off to shoot some pheasant and smell musty.

An expensive new car every year

The few genuinely rich wealthy people that i have met have been very unflashy is there is such a word.

Look down on low paid workers

I never worked in retail but I spent years in hotels. Met many millionaires and they were the soundest people you could meet. Used to money and they are comfortable in who they are

The worst were the middle aged, well to do, middle class women. Just loved to sneer at you behind the counter

What about things the illegitimately rich do?

The Diabolical Monocle

Go to events in a pink stretched limo.

Beat their staff.

Rich people dont buy new cars. They will be drive a 1993 Volvo with no shame. I have a neighbour who earns well over €250k a year and spent a day last month trying to find decent second hand tires with thread in scrap yards, as his tires on his 93 volvo failed the NCT.

Ah for **** sake!

Decent tyres aren't some wastefully extravagant luxury - they're the only point of contact between your 100KPH one tonne vehicle and a wet road.

There's a difference between been comfortable with yourself enough to be seen buying lower cost stuff and being an out and out fking cheapskate!

prince of peasants

Join protest groups like 'Occupy Dame Street'.

I know someone who is very wealthy and they don't carry on like the faux-rich middle class Irish.

It's quite funny, they're all up to their eyeballs in debt, but hey, they've the house and a Range Rover....wow. :rolleyes:

Simply, they don't have that heir of arrogance and delusion of grandeur about them.

The few genuinely wealthy people Ive met or know are actually sound enough. But good LORD they are tighter than a ducks arse!! I remember trying to keep a straight face ase a fella told me of his inconvenience one week day having to drive to his renting house (vacant at the time) in order take a bulb out because one of his own had blown!
