[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s very rude of these “friends” to poke fun at your lifestyle.[b] [/b]It would be one thing if you were bragging but clearly you’re not.[b]

I would look into private schools where you will find wealth. There will be others with large homes and many without but I don’t think you’ll be called out on it.

It’s a frustrating problem to have- though I’m sure many of us would trade places in a second! [/quote]

I think owning a 15,000 sf home is basically like bragging about your wealth, though.  There's nothing subtle about it.  [/quote]

Same. Sorry, but if I saw that house + housekeeper, I would know we could not possibly be friends since we don't share the same general values. [/quote]

+1  I'd think this if it was someone I was just getting to know.  If I'd known you a while and already felt confident that you were a good friend, shared values, etc. then I'd be surprised by the house but it wouldn't be friendship-ending.  I would wonder why the heck you have such a big house.
