What do you guys think of rich kids?
I've been looking around on the internet about what people think of well off kids these days and I was not surprised too see so many negative opinions on them. The place where i live ( south spain ) is full of the richest of the rich. Arab kings, famous businessmen are a common sight, as well as megayachts, Bugattis and other exotic cars. I, like most other of the snobby kids detailed in other posts, live in a large compound. My dad runs the most successful land development company in the Southern Hemisphere and has amassed one of the largest collections of extremely rare classic cars in the world, consisting of Rolls Royces, Hispano Suizas, just to name a few. My dad is also in the process of buying a 50 my yacht. However, most would describe me as an introverted, ( slightly) overweight, PC gamer. I hate people knowing how much money my dad has, and I never have parties at home. Only 4 or 3 trusted people have come over to my place, and that was in the past year. And for my 17th b day I got an extremely rare jaguar XJR-S. For no reason. I would be much happier if I just lived in a smallish city apartment, in New York. I hate the pampered life I have, and I'm sick of getting a new phone every year. I still use my old iPhone 3GS from 4 yrs ago. The worst thing is how I'm gifted in languages. I can learn and excel with basically no effort in any language taught to me. It sort of shoves the fact on peoples faces of how privileged I'm.
I speak in complete honesty.
I don't mind a kid whose rich, but they can't be snotty about it. If your rich and nice, I'll like you. If your rich and mean, I'll hate you.
Nothing
Hi i'm actually amazed to see how humble you are. Many pampered kids are snotty and don't consider anything. Wether or not you are rich doesn't matter its all about character. You may be rich but from what i have your parents spoil you but i see that inside you are humble. Just because your parents spoil you does not mean you are spoiled it matters about consideration and self importance are you happy about yoour life do you not care about anything do you think you are more important than others. From what i herad you answer no to everything so congrats to you hope i helped
As Janine said, if you're a good person, you'll be liked. Listing your Dad's assets probably wasn't a great start, though.
Dude, the fact that your thinking of how others perceive you is enough to see your not snobby. You shouldn't be wishing you were less off, you should savor the life and things you have. You didn't choose to be child of a wealthy person and its not a bad thing and the fact you have gift for languages is fantastic, learn as many as you can! But don't take it for granted and don't be to proud, you have to find a balance. Tbh instead of writing everything i have all i have to say is, i like a person for who they are, not things they have or what they do not have.
quotes of the day "Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers."
"I feel like when people judge me they're not judging me, because they don't know who I'm."
"There are people who have money and people who are rich."
and if you really don't enjoy the gifts you receive, you should give those phones or what not to charity and make someone else a little richer.
"A business that makes nothing but money is a poor business".
- You think I could buy a iPhone 5 if i work what you guys think? You guys think that if i work at McDonald or any store i can afford to buy the iPhone 5? And pay every month
- 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 you're rich if you have an iphone? I have an iphone6 and people at school ask me if I'm "rich." If you want an iphone 6, get something called a job and since when did owning a $700 phone make someone "rich?" It's not like my phone is covered in gold and diamonds.
- When do you guys think the iPhone 5s will come out? I have been looking all over the internet and can't find anything. When do you guys speculate that it will come out? Also, when the iphone 5 came out, they made the iphone 4 free. Do you think they will do the same to the iphone 4s when the 5s comes out?
