I am sure different posters have different numbers in mind. Based on other threads, I am guessing a number of posters are thinking HHI above $250,000. Don't know what number OP had in mind.


What? 250k is middle class.


Only to DCUM.

Money attracts the gold diggers. Both of my brothers' wives married them primarily for the family money. It has not gone well. One brother will admit this (she only married him for the money). The other one won't. That is a definite downside.

Being rich is like being young. No real downside. Any perceived downsides are imaginary.

Keep saying that. I’m guessing you’ve never been harassed for money by family or friends.

It’s actually not. It’s spectacular. My DH chased the IPO dragon and won. There is nothing lonely about being wealthy.

I can’t think of a single negative thing that money brought into our lives.


Is your family of origin wealthy? Are your childhood friends wealthy?

Because if not, it is lonely and common for people to constantly ask your for money.


No, I actually support one of my siblings. We are IPO money. Very new money and it is spectacular!


NP You seem kinda dumb and lacking introspection and a broad worldview, to be honest. There’s a reason many many many people throughout time have said the equivalent of “mo money mo problems”. Just because it hasn’t affected you personally yet, doesn’t mean it never will


I’m dumb because I don’t agree with you?

Sorry, I don’t find it a hardship when people have asked for help. I’ve had actual real problems like the loss of a child. People asking for money doesn’t phase me. I don’t lose sleep or ponder the hardship you speak of


Sorry I triggered you. Now go hug your money tight!!! Someone might want some

Poor rich guys with beautiful women wanting to sleep with them. I hope they aren't too distraught

That must be awful. Here I thought wondering if you will be able to make a mortgage payment after a layoff was bad, but having someone ask for money sounds so much worse.

My friend married a gold digger much younger. His goal is to die at 80 during wild sex.

I find it very lonely and isolating.

It is. Except they’re not “asking,” hence the “harassed” part.

Myra, I’d totally trade losing a roof over my head instead of being asked for money.

I can’t imagine someone who lost a child calling their lives “spectacular”. Again, you sound really shallow.

Go ask the NBA and NFL players with 15 cousins on their Verizon plan.

Call me shallow all you want. However it doesn’t change the fact that I know what real problems are and money isn’t one of them. I’m sorry I disappoint you and I don’t find wealth burdensome.

Losing my child would have been the same with or without money. Money didn’t play into it.

You’re dense tho.
