[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a nanny for an extremely wealthy family is a true mansion (one of three mansions they own).  They have friends of far lesser income and means over all the time as well as famous people and those who live in ridiculously magnificent homes.  My employers go to parties in friend’s apartments as well.  They are lovely, warm and open people and have none of the issues or concerns you have, OP.

Quite frankly, you need to acquire true class, OP.  You certainly don’t seem to have any. [/quote]

Well, look at you judging away.

This is a not a question of class, but of understandable anxiety and insecurity. [/quote]

Yeah right. What insanely wealthy family is actually friends with people who live in apartments? How did these so called friends meet? They don’t travel in the same circles. They aren’t going on the same vacations and they aren’t commiserating with each other on how to make ends meet. There is nothing in common. I don’t believe you.[/quote]

PP you do realize that apartment is not synonymous with affordable housing. Not everyone who lives in an apartment is struggling to make ends meet.  Have you see the rents on some apartments? Apartments come in all levels, from affordable housing right up to swanky penthouses with all the amenities you want.   So it is possible that apartment dwellers and extremely wealthy families can take the same vacation and run in the same social circles.  But guess what?  What they likely have most in common is being parents.  While it certainly gets easier with money, parenting is parenting (unless you live in Ca and you take out an add to outsource the role of a second parent ;-)  [/quote]
