Am i rich? Why am I not spoilt?
Okay so I HATE bragging, and I know rich people don't brag, but there are rumors in school that I'm rich and I just want to know if I'm.
my mum doesn't work, dad is a gp
I have two sisters who are older than me, one Is married one lives abroad stuying.
I live in an okay sized house, 5/6 bedrooms, bought for 500 but is now estimated nearly 1mil
we own 2 flats in a rich suburb in London, but we got them quite cheap I think.
other than that we're pretty bog standard. I'm not spoilt at all. My most expensive thing is an iPhone 5, which is my dads old one. Even though we have all of this money, why do you think I'm not spoilt like other rich kids. My clothes are barely designer, mostly primark ect, and other not very well off kids get spoiled more than me. I'm EXTREMELY grateful for what I have, but what I have doesn't even compare to other kids. Why don't my family splurge like others?
Just to be clear, YOU are not rich. You are a kid. You own and earn nothing.
It sounds like your parents are rich. If they are not spoiling you, then you should thank them. They are teaching you not to be a horrible, useless person, and your life will be easier when you get to be an adult.
Different families have different values.
Being spoiled is just as much about attitude than it is about money or material things.
Sounds like your parents are raising you right. You family is well off, but the way to get well off is to not spend as much as they take in. Spoilt kids usually don't do well in the "real" world.
You don't sound rich at all. You sound very comfortably middle class.
It sounds like your parents are sensible. They own 3 properties so they are doing pretty well.
They might be waiting for you to take initiative with money. Let's say you want to travel somewhere to study. Unaffordable to some, yet possibly the kind of thing your parents would encourage and fund.
- Why do rich people hate it when you call them rich? I remember this one girl I new from school had a brand new iphone with an expensive case covered in jewelry. Someone said "Wow, you're really rich!" and she was offended.
- Why do people think I'm rich? Whydo people think I'm rich? I live in a bigger house(I have 5 siblings.) I have an iPhone. A lot of people do these days. I go to a private school. Honestly people are always telling me I'm a spoiled brat. Yes my dad does make a good amount of money, but he donates a lot of it to charity… I also don't get whatever I want, I have to buy it on my own, or wait for a birthday. Do you think I sound like a spoiled brat/rich? I'm sick of hearing this.
- Why do Americans think it's right to let the rich get richer and the poor get poorer? It's disgusting at how 90% of cell phone owners have a $600 iPhone Chinas population is balanced between rich and poor You say you want equality but when it comes to wealth you're too greedy to care about equality Capitalism does cause hypocrisy
- Why did she call me a spoilt brat? So today I was out with my friend (let's just call her Hattie for this) we came back to my house to get changed for a party and she walked into my room and saw that I just got a new camera and a new iPhone 4S then looked at me an rolled her eyes but I just ignored it then she looked in my wardrobe for something to wear for the party but she couldn't find anything so I told her to look in my other wardrobe then she called me a spoilt brat, just like that
