[quote=Anonymous]Have you ever seen the documentary The Queen of Versailles or Don’t be Tardy? Why it is so hard for people who grew up poor to drop that persona? I know someone who reminds me of those women, and it’s always puzzled me. She’s not now rich to that level, but her husband makes enough money to give her a solid UMC life. Yet, she is so unrefined, it’s almost like she completely rejects dropping her old lifestyle. There is tackily worn designer apparel, druggie and drama mama friends, all while living in a beautiful home in an UMC area (that she fills with IKEA), a professional (and somwhat ashamed?) husband. What happens when these women (men?) suddenly come into money, yet they cling to being poor? [/quote]
