[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TLDR most of this. I'm most of what OP describes.  White, rich (by any normal standards), Catholic (so not WASP), live in NW DC, and kids were at top privates in DC.  And I have a Barbour jacket filled at all times wit dog poop bags.

And, I worked my ass off to be able to do what I do, professionally and personally. Am neurotic, and have been ultra high achieving through school (public high school ivy college and law school).  I'm blessed to be unusually gifted intellectually, and have put that gift to very good results. If you were to see me in the neighborhood, you'd have no idea my background, and might assume multigenerational wealth.  This is similar to several friends in my neighborhood. All to say it would be incorrect to assume certain clothing or other external attributes indicates a person's background, talents or work ethic.  [/quote]

What's up with all the rich Catholics in NW DC? Seems way more prevalent than the rich WASPs these days.

Yeah,I live in Chevy Chase, which people think is Waspy but almost everyone I know I Catholic or Jewish.[/quote]
