Amusing how many people feel offended by your comment and now have to reveal how they are actually “wealthy” and still watch this video. Well, two things: Firstly, good for you if you’re not just talking BS. Secondly, in any case those comments qualify you as both nouveau riche and lower class - because no sophisticated and civilized gentlemen (or woman) would ever respond in such a lower class manner. And lastly - for all those simpletons out there - no, having a lot of money does not make you upper class at all. In fact, upper class has nothing to do with money whatsoever.
No. 8 most rich people are aloof. They maintain connections and important relations but they don’t socialise and make small talk with every one they meet
True ... also No. 6 at 6:45 only rich people that like losing their wealth have financial advisors and trust them, smart people can do without them ... "a fool and his money are soon parted"
My wife used to have a client, that turned out to be part of one of Indonesia wealthiest families. We’re talking Forbes list. And very humble and easy going people.
In my country i used to work in the wealthiest part of the city and i noticed that rich people (recognizable by their cars) are always polite on the road: they would let u cross calmly, seldom horn etc. I always wondered if they're not in a hurry cos they already have money or if they don't want to fight on the road so they dont damage their cars, or if being calm and collected when driving is a trait that actually comes with wealth. Anyway, i decided to act like them when on the road 😂
It's more because they have less stress in their life. They also want to treat other people well because after you remove money out of the equation, it's all about how people treat you.
i noticed this, too. I went to two different Walmarts in the same day: one in a rich neighborhood and one in a poor neighborhood. The driving manners were night and day different. I think it's because rich people, in general, know that if you are considerate of other people than other people will treat you accordingly.
It is because those of us who are wealthy know how this universe works. We know that a high vibration attracts that which we desire. It will attract similar feeling events, people and circumstances that make us feel that positively again. Honking and having road rage is a very low vibration, which will attract similar feeling events, people and circumstances that make us feel negatively again.
Your revolution is over. Condolences. The bums lost. My advice is to do what your parents did; get a job, sir. The bums will always lose. Do you hear me?
@@allansmith7305 Look, man, I've got certain information, all right? Certain things have come to light. And, you know, has it ever occurred to you, that, instead of, uh, you know, running around, uh, uh, blaming me, you know, given the nature of all this new shit, you know, I-I-I-I... this could be a-a-a-a lot more, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, complex, I mean, it's not just, it might not be just such a simple... uh, you know?
"Time is a luxury" Indeed, making use of time wisely could make us happier as what happens can never be experienced again. Money is equally important however we can always earn it while time can't be. Thanks so much for posting this type of motivational video, keep it up💖💖.
My Mom is like this, she is quiet about her huge wealth. To look at her you would never know, she shuns brands like Prada or Chanel. She has lots of luxury brands but prefers to carry small practical purses and wallets and wear casual comfortable clothes. She's not a miser either, she enjoys entertaining her friends at home with big dinner parties and travels a lot. Her life inspires me.
People who poorly judge people actually working at any wage in a capitalist economy are what I call a champagne socialist. Billionaire capitalists truly appreciate any person working for money.
tell that to the financially ignorant common folk in dfw, texas. I have to waste time explaining that an $8M net worth janitor can provide more finances than most doctors
@WINNER lol sorry but it’s your own fault that you’re broke. Lol my dad came from an immigrant background and became a millionaire. What’s stopping ya? LAZZINESS!!! Also he me made earn my money since I was 5 in hot summer vacation days when it was above 100F… lol no excuse!
@@BabyHefner01 I despise this kind of attitude. And learn to spell! It’s not classy to look down on others. Nor is it classy to routinely misspell words when you’re doing it.
I found out my friend was wealthy when she mentioned she was having a Christmas dinner party for over 20 people the next evening. I couldn’t believe she was so calm because I would have been frantic planning/preparing/shopping/cooking etc but she was totally relaxed about the whole thing. Then casually mentioned she was having the dinner party catered with a private chef and wait staff. And I just thought how cool (and efficient) that was.
@@angelcanales9480 there is literally ton of stuff that where consider luxury not long ago and are now available to everybody today. So it your comment that dont make much sens.
Buying buildings or land with cash means mafia or drug dealers. Rich people do keep their money in banks. Just, different banks. Eg, in the UK, C. Hoare & Co.
The most important thing you can do as a parent is teach your children early about financial literacy! Not just about the value of hard work because many people work hard but never get anywhere, but about how to save, how to invest, avoid get rich quick schemes etc.
so the one time that sticks out in my memory was around 1997-98 when i was in kindergarten. my best friend at the time invited me over to his house and he had a lake and fish in it that he and his father would fish out of. He also had a lot of cool dogs and a big house with every toy imaginable. Thing is, back then he was dressed the same as me and had very similar interests, and we liked each other because we were outcasts, and didn't fit in . We are still friends to this day
If they wear something plaid, it’s in the family tartan. And this isn’t just in Scotland. The wealthiest person I knew, would ship her evening gown to her sisters to wear after she wore it once. They would share evening gowns so that they would get three wears from an expensive gown rather than just one of them wearing it once. They lived in different cities so it was doubtful that anyone attending the event would have seen the gown on another sister. Each sister would buy a gown each season and share it. The purchaser got to wear it first. They purposely would chose a style and color that worked for all of them. Very smart. All three sisters were known for their style.
Rich people wear very minimal outfits. They dress for the occasion when necessary but most of the time their outfits are simple and comfortable but still put together. Their mannerism is different and they are well spoken. They also value their time.
I'm a real estate investor and can afford just about any status car on the market. What I do is purchase a new jeep every 10 years and the last 2010 jeep I gave away. My wife is the same way. She purchases a V6 Honda every 10 years.
That’s what my husband and I do too! He’s driving his 2010 Honda Accord but his credit score is over 800 and a few investments in stocks. He makes 6 figures and we have rental properties as extra income for play.
I’m not rich at all… yet have 90% of these ways… I’m forever determined and I buy what saves time, what makes a vacation “a vacation” I’m not impressed by designer names, i buy what works for me even if it costs a little more. Furthermore, I decided at 45 years old to spend ALL MY MONEY on my teeth after a lifetime of ignoring how important a confident smile is worth and it’s paid for itself 10 fold… as I’d NEVER have the confidence I have now with shitty teeth. I truly believe time is money and the less time I spend being frugal, allows me the time to think of more important things… the devil is in the details…. Just live, you can’t take it with you.
I've known individuals all my life who would dress and act like everyone else yet they were worth millions, they never advertised it. I enjoyed their company, and miss them often.

When I returned from a trip with a friend. Next to us in economy by the window, sat a man, that carried nothing with him. As far as I remember not even a jacket. I found that to be peculiar. He was very kind, he even opened my water bottle twice, because I couldn't open it. 😂 He had well taken care of hands and nails by the way. When the male flight attendant came to take our orders, we ordered the same thing and he handed in his platinum credit card. And the flight attendant jumped in astonishment straight away : "Wow, your credit card, is very heavy!". While inspecting the card closely. Hahaha, he just sat there and smiled. I was laughing by butt off. That was so hilarious. 🤣👌
My in-laws are upper middle class. Their friends came over for dinner and I was talking to a Billionaire! I had no idea he was a Billionaire. He was more interested on what I had to say.
How did I discover that someone was very rich? A woman was interested in showing me her new house, which she had built on family land. As she was driving me there in her car, I casually mentioned that in the state where I lived there was a difference between an inspection sticker from a state inspection station and an inspection sticker from an independent repair shop and that when buying a used car it was prudent to prefer a car with an inspection sticker from a state inspection station. She politely listened, whereas someone fake-rich would have protested. Then I saw her house and it clearly cost over $1 million to build (not including cost of land). She was rich, definitely, and not in the market for shabby used cars. Oops!
What a well-made video. A delight to watch. And yes time is a luxury indeed. And you need to train your brain to strike a balance in life. But above all health has emerged as tge real wealth. Super grateful for that. Oh yeah and peace of mind alongwith everything I could ever ask for. Hope everyone reading this has a super successful life. Success in every avenue.
I found out I worked with a top level hedge fund manager when he told a story about taking the company jet to the Bahamas for lunch. He was speaking in the million/billion dollar levels when I was in the hundreds/thousands level. Needless to say I got a few pointers on where to put my money. 😝
I'm an insurance agent/ account manager to the wealthy and much of this is very true. One huge thing I notice about old money is that the people of old money are VERY nice and down to earth.
You are a fool to be mean to someone who manages your money. A fool and his money are soon parted. That's why people who have had money for a long time are always, always nice to their insurance account managers, financial advisors, etc.

@@IndyAvocadoKid It's all too to treat low-rung employees like trash because real wages for these workers has dwindled over time. The minimum wage is no longer a living wage. In stark contrast to the 1% who have taken off like a rocket. In every sense the highly successful are walking ALL OVER the poor. Often, lower and middle management are the messengers who in-your-face act like it.
Illosovic Stayne Money in this context refers to “new money,” I.e. people wanting to be flashy and show off they have money and wealth in this context refers to those that have assets, solid cash flow that do not need to flaunt their wealth
To be successful in life , just do something that will earn you money while you sleep, no matter how little. The pandemic was a prefect eye opener to really see how life can be without the usual income steam and every one had to sit at home 🏡. Well I never felt it because of my investment in a crypto trading company where I earn 4 figures weekly. The best one can do for himself is to invest more and spend less

One of the ways you can tell is if they do something a lot that doesn't appear to make any money but costs a lot. For example - the Mike Stern Trio are a great band but it's not music or a show that used to sell a whole lot of tickets. Turns out that Mike's father is a billionaire, which is likely how he can afford to do it. Mike's guitar playing is great but not highly commercial. Another good example is Julia-Louis Dreyfus - who had quite a tenuous hold in the comedy world for about a decade before she cracked the big time with Seinfeld in about 1992. Most people couldn't afford a decade of that - her father is also a billionaire. Likewise, Kevin Bacon is married to actress Kyra Sedgwick (half sister of Mike Stern, sharing the same billionaire father) and we all know that Kevin actually wasn't in a whole lot of films and rarely plays the lead role. Most actors can't sustain a 40 year career doing that. This isn't criticism - most people with access to their money don't contribute as much as they do to the world. It's just simple and unignorable facts - touring the world in a poorly selling band multiple times, playing bit comedy parts for a decade and being a highly-selective supporting actor for 40 years are not forms of work that will pay the bills over that time, if someone isn't financed from some other source.
After you reach a certain income, you start to realize the money really isn't the most valuable thing in life. It's TIME. Time is worth much much more than millions. Retiring early and enjoying life while I'm healthy. It's the only item on my bucket list.
I love this video! Thank you so much! Something I wanted to add: as a young girl my parents would always ask about the "family" of someone I wanted to date. They would always say, "sweetie, it's not the money that counts, just make sure he comes from a good family."
Your revolution is over. Condolences. The bums lost. My advice is to do what your parents did; get a job, sir. The bums will always lose. Do you hear me?
I was thinking the exact same thing.. To say that as a blanket point is simply false. Completely and entirely ignoring every price tag no matter what? That's just idiotic. Having a price in mind of what you believe something is worth paying is what a truly wealthy individual does, trust me.. I seldom comment, but this was worth taking the moment to do so.
@@SGVirtusMysteriesOfFate Maybe those born with a "silver spoon" are generally not cost-conscious. But the self-made ones would definitely mind how their resources are used. From time to time they would splurge, but not frequently.
There’s a difference between being conscious of how or what you’re spending on and looking at prices. And keep in mind, this vid is talking about the super rich for the most part. Not the the people who are comfortable after working hard for 40 years. I believe you’re confusing wealthy with rich. A better example of this is when someone travels, will they pay $20,000 for a first class flight or rent a $20k-$30k a night hotel? It’s not a question of “should I spend this money?” As much as it is “the $20,000 a night hotel is such a non-issue. My comfort is important... meh, just get it”.
Some of these are definitely true. Started working a new job recently and my boss was someone you could tell was extremely wealthy. Good quality shoes and bags, nice watches, nice fitting, good quality clothes, but no brand names on anything. She was well groomed, spoke politely and intelligently, and was kind to everyone. I remember when she treated all the staff members to lunch at a high end hotel, she didn't even look at the bill, just called the waiter and quietly passed her card over. Found out later that she and her husband owned the school I was working at, the hotel we ate in, the amusement park beside it, the golf course, and basically developed half of the area I lived in. Co-worker told me once, "everything you can see outside this window were built by them". I find that people who are truly rich are comfortable in their own skin, they have no need to show off or to prove that they are rich. It is the fake poor that flaunt brand names and get defensive and self-conscious when they 'think' you look down on them. Wealthy people also treat people well, because they know that the people around them are important assets.
I’m the CEO of my businesses and I often come to my organisations where my staff wear LV, Armani, custom Saville Row suits, one even drives a Ferrari etc whilst I drive a fk’d up Honda whilst wearing an oily Ford Mustang shirt and my old work pants, which was for Domino’s. I often shout out “That’s what she said!” and just get away with it. I wear and do whatever is comfortable for myself whilst everyone is just a square and makes money for me. Smart.
@@fortitudevalance8424 you sound awesome. I’m like that as well. No take that back. I like a luxury car but ya I’ll say whatever I want. I like to make my employees laugh and I like my employees to feel a pride in the job and feel appreciated.
I knew a super-rich guy when I was in my early 20s. He drove an old beat-up car, dressed like everyone else, rarely had money to do things the rest of us couldn't afford to do. We were good friends for a year before I was invited to his home. He made sure his friends were REAL friends before he allowed them to know that his family was extremely wealthy. Now I see people that appear to be like the rest of us and wonder how many of them are secretly ultra wealthy.
My Dad drove a 1977 VW Kombi up until 2010. His father retired at 45. Dad at 55. Both flew on Concorde. His father had a 20 year old Camry. It was Land, Land & more Land that made them financially successful.
@@lukespector5550 The rich want servants or slaves who they can pay below minimum wage and if they can get away with it want things for free because they're little gods who must be worshiped. Stingy with tips and paychecks and very smug since others are below them. A survey should be taken of those who have to deal with them to see that those who are considered poor or middle class are more humble, generous and kind and look out for their workers.
He may not have access to the money yet. His parents may have tied it up in his inheritance. They may also want him to appreciate money and live a normal life. Good for them! He sounds like a great guy.
I find myself having a lot of these traits (and I am not wealthy). I think most of them have to do more with class than money (even though they walk hand in hand). Charisma, taste, class, and a brand. I guess this thinking and way of life is part of my growth mindset.
Being wealthy gives you life lessons. People want to take advantage of you, people also want you to work for them for free being their doctor, their lawyer, their handyman, everyfuckingthing, this is fine if it's just one friend but when it becomes an every growing amount of people, you realise that they're all exploiting you and holding the gossip of "money has changed him" as a way to keep you in line. So it's a natural defense mechanism to present yourself in a way that's ambiguous to your income, fill your time with excuses and only provide your friendship and loyality to those who deserve it. Any person can exhibit all the positive traits you mention if they're independent, respect people time and privacy and has a little taste.
I was raised poor/middle class. In my 30’s I began investing in real estate and quickly gained financial success. Although my finances have changed I don’t wear name brand clothes or jewelry as a result people typically have no idea. Other than the bank tellers treating you super nice it’s cool to be incognito and not have to worry about money lol.
I worked at a resort. You could tell which ones were old money and ones with new money. The old money would be polite and greet you. While the new money would snub you. It was hard because I'm a people person and love meeting new people.
True. I've worked for corporate presidents. Some of them tell me to go to a certain car wash (asking for certain services) because they've heard about discounts at that place.
@John Fisher why don't you change your living area?) It's better to live in the area where people are close to your standards (both material and mental).
While working as a teller, I would often see this construction worker come in. You know the look, strong guy that's you always see in his work coveralls and boots. After a year I found out that he was not, in fact, a laborer, but a billionaire who wanted to learn how to make a house. He commissioned a vacation home and worked with the contractors to build it. Talk about a change in appearance the first time I was him in a suit and ready for a boardroom.
True true story from a friend. Many yrs ago a janitor at my friend’s workplace all of a sudden announced he was retiring. This was it. Everyone learned that he had been silently in the stock mkt for a few decades and had done very very well. Needless to say it was a TOTAL shocker. Never judge a book by its cover.
I worked at the 1st class of emirates airlines A380 where there were "shower spas" inside the airplane, so they can shower even up in the sky... These rich people are usually quiet, soft-spoken, dressed conservatively, polite, and were not that demanding. There is a private bar lounge with several alcoholic drinks (including a bottle of Dom Pérignon), Godiva chocolates and hors d'oeuvres, but most would be happy just inside their private cabins in 1st class, not touching whats free :)
I've worked as a private nurse for several billionaires and a lot of these are true. NOT ALL of them apply, but the super wealthy, especially the old rich, are usually very low profile. Wanting privacy is probably their biggest common quality. You'll probably never know they're billionaires when you see them on the streets (A lot of them wear old clothes and have zero brands).
i remember my friend who is a socialite and works in a luxury fashion magazine. you wouldnt know she is from an old rich family because you can see her attend to models and photographers, carrying their luggage, serving lunch to staffs, etc.
@@yankeedoodle6293 I think the video is referring to old money . I'm a teacher and real estate investor with a net worth of approximately 3 million. I still have to work and my network is still lower to middle class people. We are not part of the elite.

#4 isn't correct in my experience. I have a self-made triple-digit millionaire friend and he is concerned about the tiniest detail when he spends money. He checks the price of everything.
“A fool and his gold are soon parted.” People may and will overcharge you if they think you’re rich. Companies will charge more for services and products in more affluent towns, despite offering the same service or products for cheaper in lesser. If you fall for this scam repeatedly, you won’t stay rich long. If you act like “I don’t care what it costs,” well, then you won’t mind getting robbed blind. Check the price, and if you don’t agree with it, walk away.
@@danielemoyon1649 Yeah i also believe many rich people are careful with their money. Because for me if you are not it is very easy to blow it all. Been enough cases of rich people blowing their fortune and are now poor.
Well I learned from a young age that the world of the wealthy is split into 3. *Old money* ( transgenerational wealth), *New money* ( recently made wealthy typically self made and flashy) and *Quiet money* ( can be old or new money, but you wouldn't know they are wealthy since they don't flash, are humble, typically self made, financially conservative and blend in well especially into high middle class neighborhoods and lifestyle). I met them all, quiet money are the most interesting and better to get along with since they are not entitled and aware of the world, typically very worldly and intellectual.
Sooo true they make the best type of conversation, especially to learn from their experiences. On thing I've personally noticed people in this category love helping other on the "low"
Years ago, my Dad felt sorry for this old guy sitting at a bar and bought him a drink. This was in a very small town with lots of farmers around. Who never were in the bar that time of day (they were working on the farms). This guy was in ancient overalls, raggy shirt, beat up shoes, torn straw hat, and drove a very beat up old pickup truck (paint job essentially down to the primer). After the guy left, one of the other men told my Dad who he was - the wealthiest guy around for miles. He was a multi-millionaire. He really did NOT care about appearances!
There is nothing admirable about a bum with money. Remove the money and you still have a bum. A wealthy person with class who has their money removed still has class.
@@luxebeauty5706 it's not because the guy doesn't value showing off fancy clothes and shiny cars that he's a bum. "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."
One time, a customer at my work came in wearing a hooded top and plain jeans. She didnt really give off anything noticeable at all that she was rich, and i only figured out she possibly was when i asked her (like with any customer btw) if she would like to add a tip on her card for the baristas. She said "yeah give them $20". And i realized how solid metal black her card was then lol i joked with her "wow 20 thank you so much, are you like secretly wealthy? XD" and she gave me this very stern yet open expression and said "yeah actually", and walked off. She was so cool about it. Wealthy people can honestly walk amongst us looking like average or below average folks. She was an example i couldnt forget lol

@@alux #3 rich people do wear designer brands and high end clothes but they carry themselves like it's another piece of clothing and aren't flashy about it. Many wealthy women wear Louboutins as well as Poor women.

I found out my old neighbor was a millions after being friends with her for 2 yrs. She’s frugal on a daily basis but always purchases good food regarding of the cost and always gets the best seat in the house at Broadway shows.

My first experience was with a family that her husband was on the cover of Forbes they lived so modestly that I thought it was a souvenir that they had made, it was encased and on a special shelf. She allowed me open it and read his story to see that it was true! The article was about the business he created years ago and he was still running at the time I was working with them. I learned so much from them both. They really took me in and grew me!
Love it. Those covers are in dens and bought as a novelty souvenir so friends can say “Dan, wealthiest man in Minnesota, did Tammy buy that for you?” Only this time, it was real
The really wealthy ones in NYC don’t even go out to restaurants. They have their own private chefs living in their townhouses. Thus you hardly see them in public
I do too. I just decided to move out of MN. I am a single, chocolate woman and I have noticed the racism here. In the jobs Ive had up til 2019 and as far as opposite sex relationships. I love my privacy and freedom and nobody is worth me giving it up. 8-25-21
A classmate in my statistics class at uni always had on really worn out clothes and was always smiling. He turned out to actually own a personal plane. Wealthy family!
“What’s one time you found out someone is really rich?” I was in College. Jokingly said to my friend, “Nice bag! Can you give it to me?” 😁 then she tossed all the things inside her bag in a plastic bag and gave the bag to me. It was a louis vuitton bag which was worth $2000. She was always wearing plain clothes (but looks so comfy and with high quality) and a subtle accessories or a bag that ordinary college student can’t afford. I always know she was rich but i didnt expect her to be that crazy rich!!! We’re still friends and I think I learnt a lot from her! ❤️
When I was in prep school in the 1970's a classmate was driving a 12 year old rattle trap of a car. I later found out that his dad's net worth was greater than 220 Milion. Keep in mind that this was in the 1970's.
My friend I've known since Jr High school in the 70's found out his Dad was a Billionaire after he passed. His Dad was Cool back in the day. His brother worked with him doing Real Estate. He also owned Business around the world, he owned Stocks, bought Oil, Gold, etc. He was low key and valued his privacy. He loved going 2 Vegas his favorite was Sports betting.

“Fortify yourself with moderation.” The goal is to be wealthy and pass it down not to look wealthy. Rich and wealthy are not the same thing; not even close.
I wholeheartedly agree. Greed, ostentatious behavior and lavish spending are poisonous qualities. There's nothing wrong with wanting and striving for more. One shouldn't have an inflated ego and be arrogant though. Discipline and self control are key.

Story Daniels Depends on how you define rich. Material wealth increases your number of options. But there are other kinds of wealth that are non-material.
@@Beautyinwverything Disagree, this is a great mentality that most people don't have the character or self-understanding to have. Your desire for more is a byproduct of the society around you constantly brainwashing you into thinking you need more. The elite at the top are the ones who control your life.
@Eddie Morra And if it’s exclusively material wealth to which you refer, then you might be surprised how poverty stricken the materially wealthy can be. As a case in point, I just read about squabbles between billionaire neighbours. I sure wouldn’t want to live anywhere near them. Nasty people. As Jesus put it, and I paraphrase, what good does it do you to gain the world but forfeit your soul?
Most wealthy people I know drive Honda’s and Toyota’s. My dads friend owns a lot of of apartments in the Seattle area! Dude drive a 2002 Honda Accord. I think it’s cool how he has a lot of money but acts like he’s broke. Hands down if a family emergency happens he has the funds to cover it.
He is not purposely acting broke. He is wealthy because he uses every dollar he can to reinvest to make more money. Rich people use money to make money. Rich people buy time from other people. Rich people pay people to make money for them. Poor people sell their time. Time is the most valuable asset.
wouhhh guys hold up Humans are actually social beings. That whole social meter thing and mental health crap is kinda just hype and barely scientific facts. Thought I let yall know so we can get our head out of the gutters of assuming our fake situations
I married VERY rich and had a crash course in social media and a few other things. Fastest lesson was get rid of all your social media. No one needs to know
My favorite one is “they spend money to save time, not time to save money”. The wealthy value their time above ALL else! Excellent value. You guys inspired me to create my own self improvement/personal finance channel! Thank you!!
When I was a teen, I babysat for people who picked me up in a Rolls. I've met people who had real French Impressionist paintings on their walls. Old money expects their family to have impeccable manners. New money shows off and loses their money. Tina
There are values that are attached to wealth that stay even if wealth is lost. I have found this to be true over time. During my career in Academia, I met an elderly gentleman who was the Director of our university library. He was a quiet and very knowledgeable man of impeccable manners, who was a pleasure to work with. Many years later, I learned he was an exiled Hungarian Count who had helped many jews escape from the Nazis during WWII. Likewise, I had an old friend and classmate who was always very low key and down to earth. Many years after meeting her I found out she was a granddaughter of the Cuban founder of Partagas cigars, a family of enormous wealth who lost it all through the Castrist revolution. In both cases, I learned their backgrounds by chance because neither ever discussed nor flaunted it. In my opinion, that is true class.
@ravensonng If he was a Count then his demeanour is from hundreds of years of upbringing. I would imagine his offspring have already made back the fortune that was stolen from him.
I can relate to this actually. Somebody I know has one side of the family was heavily involved with politics and governance in South Vietnam before the War. During the Vietnam War, his entire family lost all their wealth when the communists took over the region. However, they slowly regained back their wealth and because of the networking and reputation that his great-grandfather and grandfather had during those days. He would have what I would call a "rich person" mindset and the assistance from the network.
@@LisaMaryificationAristocratic titles are more about accomplishments not money....they often don't have capitalist type values. An aristocratic title is bestowed on someone for performing an important service for their king/emperor etc. This can consist of negotiating a successful peace treaty, or making an important scientific discovery. They consider middle class materialism crass and beneath them.
I’ve been in the room with many rich people. Some billionaires even. The richest always look like they have nothing. Seriously they look like a normal person. Sometimes an expensive watch on their wrist gives it away but that’s super subtle...
I doubt that. If you look at what you're saying think about extremely rich celebrities. They do not dress poorly. Very wealthy corporate types also dress well. Bespoke clothing etc. Rolex or Piaget watch. How many rich circles do you mix in? If none. Then you know nothing.
Julie Randall you sound misinformed. Super wealthy people do not need to come off as wealthy, their work and business speaks for itself. As for middle class trying to be rich, they dress and fit a stereotype of rich because that is exactly the image they are trying to provide.
@@LilSexyGAMER Are you American by any chance? Only I am English and we tend to do things differently over here. The super rich here don't go around looking like scruffy Zucker for example. I actually know billionaires on the London circuit and not one of them turns up to a society party dressed in a t-shirt and jeans!! That's just rude. Everybody there is well dressed in bespoke designer clothing out of respect for the host. That is how London Society conducts itself. We are an old world country so we tend not to change too much sometimes. I know billionaires who have their own helicopters or have second homes in the most expensive streets of Paris. I don't just sit in a room with random rich people, I actually know them. You should not presume others knowledge based upon your own. Very dangerous. Different countries adopt different ways. America is a new country and doesn't have the same class system for a start. If a party goer were to turn up in dressed down scruffy attire they would not be welcomed. For example I was at a party in London on the Thames at a penthouse apartment worth over £10M. And that was just ONE of their homes. I think I know what I'm talking about.
