[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He's rude but some rich people want constant proof that people aren't after their money.  Making you treat, and ordering a bizarre amount of food, while bragging about first class international flights - it all seems like a test to me.

I'd let DH say something if something has to be said, but I'd probably just suck it up.  Not because he's not rude (yes, of course he is) but because it's infrequent.  He lives across the country; call it a quirk and decide not to be bothered.[/quote]

Op here.  This is really interesting. I never thought about it as a test. We expect to inherit absolutely nothing given the longevity in DH’s family. Furthermore, we are comfortable and just fine on our two fed salaries and don’t need anything really.  I admit it would be great to fly first class but as long as I can afford to go on trips I’m ok being wedged into economy.

I am inclined to suck it up too. My FIL does not have a lot of joy in his life sadly, and if eating the pasta and the chicken makes him happy, fine I guess. I do silently feel annoyed though. I have to admit once the waiter returned when FIL was in the bathroom and just wanted to confirm FIL ordered two entrees. I canceled the second entree. I lived off that small victory for the remainder of his time at my house.  :twisted: [/quote]
