Maybe it's not your money, but your attitude? An attitude that you may not even be aware of.

I think there are two sides to this...
I am spoiled too and a lot of my friends are at the school I go to so that isn't a problem for me.
Anyways, if people tell you that you should work at McDonald's with them that's stupid. Some people don't have to so they shouldn't.
On the other side just because those people are poor doesn't mean their parents just sit at home and smoke and watch TV, they just might not have the education to get a high-paying job. Some people can't finish school because of family reasons or other things like that. It's not always their parents fault so why don't you try just being nicer to them because they aren't as fortunate as you are?
People can be jealous of other people because I bet you are jealous of someone because they have a boyfriend or they get better grades or something, it's natural. They are just jealous because you have more money then they do and they have to work for things they way.

People are poor because of their habits. 95% will always rule the 5% but the 95% have the same what the 5% have. It's called a brain, habits, the will to change and make it happen.
So for me, I don't mean to be nasty, but I sure don't think much about what others think. Although I came from poor backgrund, homeless and became entrepreneur and worked it hard and smart.
Don't worry about the rest mate. Enjoy life and Mercedes SUV is a cool car but so is a Hummer and a limo, and not having to go to work for rest of my life. Oh yeah.
And you're right. If I didn't, I wouldn't, but I do because...I grow to learn to appreciate what I have. And the richest person is the one who impacts the lives of others and....helps them get to where you are.
Now, that's what I call being really wealthy.

What is it that you are really looking for in saying this?
Is it that you want someone to feel sorry for you or something?
I am not trying to make you angry or sound mean cause you have done that all ready, I don't think that they are jealous of you, they may not like you if you think working at McDonald is a bad thing, it's showing that they are taking charge of their own life and not depending on Momma & Daddy to take care of them, having a car and buying costly thing is not what makes you rich.
It's what you have and what you have to offer a friend from the inside is what a real friend would be looking for.
All I need from this is the two points....
Thanks...see you just helped me.

Well I don't like most rich girls because they seem snobby and never satisfied,they always want more when there r so many out there suffering and the rich crying because they don't have $300.00 shoes they need to try donating.And not everyones parent r like that how you say they r,some parents struggle because they just want to make there kids happy and they want the best for them(my mom)not all people have high career jobs that they want or have money to go to expensive college.And I'm NOT jealous of anyone rich because I may not be rich in money but I AM RICH IN LOVE!and it is cool that u have all that stuff!but when people say go get a job so u can feel what it's like to have to WORK for stuff not just have it handed down to them,and I disagree with you,if I had money I wouldn't want money and stuff given to me I want to earn it myself that would be my mom's money that she worked hard for not mine.I know I won't get the ten points but I just want tomake sure you heard my point of view and learned why people say that and not all people want to be rich!ok hope i helped!

Are you glad you don't have to make thoughs payments for that SUV?.
It is nice to have nice things and be given nice things but what it boils down to is that your parents worked there tails off to get where they are today. That money is your parents money. NOT YOURS. Don't expect to be handed money for the rest of your life.
I learned the hard way. Out on your own..............the buck stops at home.
Get a great education with the money that your parents are willing to give you to fund your education and earn the money on your own. You will feel so much better when you never have to ask for another dime from your parents and guess what?. Your parents will be so proud of you when that happens.
Mine are.

I understand what you are going through... Both my parents are wealthy, when i was in elementary school I went to a private school. Then when time came I decided to go to a public school... It was like everyone wanted to be my friend for the wrong reasons... I'm 20 yrs old about to turn 21 I haven't worked a day, I'm in school full time so my dad takes care of everything... Its just people want what they can't have... I had jealous friend that I drooped like a hot potato... Don't worry about what other people say...

Because some rich gurls are mean and rude and they never are greatful 4 anything they get and they never take the time to help people who are less fortunet that others.Plus they never take the time to thank their parent's or say i love u 4 all the great things they get.They just want and want and never appreciate things.

It's cool as long as you can prepare yourself to be able to afford and continue the same lifestyle after the parents are gone. Take advantage of it while it's there.
There are many poor people who grew up in rich homes. It is very sad to see them fall from the perch. Don't let it happen to you.
