[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s easier to be rich in the south: low taxes and $1 million buys you a giant, nice house instead of a 2 bedroom $hitshack. But money doesn’t matter as much as who you’re related to. [/quote]

Yeah, that’s the catch. You can’t buy your way into these circles. It matters which high school you went to, who your dad is, which country club your family belongs to. [/quote]

Fascinating, isn't it? There are places like this all over the country. And DC is full of people who didn't fit in where they grew up, so they came here to start over.[/quote]

Dude, if you think DC doesn’t have generational wealth, you’re clearly not in those circles. DC is not the land of kids without family connections picking themselves up by their bootstraps. The very notion is hilarious

And you could go to any major  city in the US to find professionals who aren’t uber wealthy making it. In fact, it’s arguably easier to go from nothing to something in LCOL markets. That’s not DC[/quote]
