[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They don’t talk about money.

Kids have surnames for names.

They never seem ruffled. Any problem is solvable and they have a family safety net.

Not overly concerned with organic food, toys, clothes, etc.

Will offer you an alcoholic beverage any time of day you pop by.[/quote]

This is pretty much the only accurate description in this entire thread. The surnames can be middle names.[/quote]

Thank you. Agreed.[/quote]

Isn't this just a description of WASPs? Are WASPs the only people with "class" in this country? Genuinely intrigued - I'm European and what I have seen of WASP culture is totally unappealing and not aspirational. Can one not have class and not be a WASP?[/quote]

No. A wasp is any “white Anglo-Saxon Protestant.” A nascar, tattooed red neck can be a wasp. It’s not a very descriptive term. I have several college friends who are OLD money from Richmond (FFV, CCV, St. Catherine’s, the whole 9 yards) and the above describes them perfectly.[/quote]
