[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want to know more about OP. OP, do you work? What is your relationship to “old money” - how far back are we talking, and about how much? Why does being treated to a gift or being a guest at a nice party make you feel uncomfortable, and why do you assume others also feel uncomfortable? Why do you single out Big Law, and is it really the case they are a legion (as opposed to you just reacting to one example)? [b]I find the psychology of “old money” fascinating.[/b] [/quote] I don’t. I have two high WASP friends — the kind with ancestral portraits hanging in their homes, like museum quality ones — and I’m embarrassed for them when they entertain. There is never enough food, and it is cheap quality. Meanwhile you are sitting on very expensive furniture. Just embarrassing. [/quote] Okay to me that just seems hilarious, like the perfect setup for a dramedy. [/quote]
