[quote=Anonymous][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. [b]Yet, she is so unrefined[/b], it’s almost like she completely rejects dropping her old lifestyle. There is [b]tackily worn designer apparel[/b], druggie and drama mama friends, all while living in a beautiful home in an UMC area (that [b]she fills with IKEA[/b]), a professional (and somwhat ashamed?) husband. What happens when these women (men?) suddenly come into money, yet they cling to being poor? [/quote] DCUM snobs never stop amusing me. If only these people spend this much brain power on something productive... :D [/quote]
