[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two of my friends are very old money (railroad and a well known household name brand) and the immediate answer I have is that they exude a type of confidence that is magnetic and settled. Super humble.[b] Excellent conversationalists, likely drilled into them by their great great grandparents. [/b]Good posture and strong sense of self. Elite colleges and prep schools. Unique style - in the sense that they could probably be ok no matter what they wear so they just put clothes on that feel good to them. No sense of striving, even though one is crazy successful in tech. The other dabbles in a series of creative pursuits while also staying home with kids. They both have casual family homes in multiple places. Registered for china/entertaining items at scully and scully or Gumps. Their first apartments weren’t in fancy high rises but had been their (insert family member’s) place in that city. Their weddings were surprisingly nice and expensive, in that none of our friends were completely aware of the extent of the wealth until we saw the decor, etc (even at an outdoor wedding on family property). At one of them the patriarch showed up in a cream linen suit. He was maybe 90. They drove Subarus and Toyotas till they broke down. If you are trying to replicate that vibe, Op, I think it is really hard. Some things are just in the breeding. [/quote]

I'm sorry, your friends knew their great great grandparents? Did every generation have their children at 13? That seems the only way that this is feasible. [/quote]
