Go tell my retired plumber aunt and uncle that - they are probably on their boat right now.  Oh what, no, it's before noon, so my aunt is probably on the horn with her investment advisor asking her if she wants in on an IPO this morning. . . she usually stops trading for the day by noon.  How often does your investment firm contact you and offer you IPO's?  How many shares of berkshire/hathway do YOU own?  Oh, but you are of a higher class than they are?  You make me laugh.  (eye roll).  I'm a measely, average lawyer compared to them.  They wipe their butts with my degrees.  [/quote]

You've also said that they owned a plumbing company. Owning a company is different than being a wage-employee in a blue collar field. I don't think it's that hard to understand that people would look at those two things differently.

Plenty of blue collar people and people in the arts, like photographers and chefs and stylists, make more $$$ than lawyers anyway.  It is what it is.  And they don't have 6-figure student loans either.[/quote]
