[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Talking about money. At all ever.
This is not a topic ever brought up by individuals from old line families. Unless it’s behind closed doors with your financial advisor or the most trusted people in your family. It’s considered extremely gauche.

Dressing flashy. Wearing lots of expensive or expensive looking jewelry. Old line families dress very plainly and conservatively. They’re clothes and shoes and jewelry might be very expensive, but you never know - they invest in specific pieces to last.

Old line people listen more than they talk.
New money people talk more than they listen. 
They want other people to know about their money and run their mouth constantly about it. Old line people don’t want anyone to know about their wealth, and they purposely don’t want it known. [/quote]

Shit. I’m totally new money, but I’m not even very rich! I just like talking stocks and investing, and have done well by saving and taking smart risks on my very meh salary. I think women not talking money has held us back. Also if you don’t wear your jewelry, what good is having it? I inherited lots of gold jewelry and wear it because it reminds me of my mom and is cultural. I’ll wear it with whatever. It’s my baseline. I’m not into expensive shoes or bags or labels, so I got you there. [/quote]
