[quote=Anonymous]I had a friend growing up who came from extreme wealth, but was very down to earth and low key as was her mother. I was stunned when I saw her home and so impressed how low key she was even talking about summer travel.

I think when people are flashy about wealth-talking about trust funds, big beach houses, expensive travel and then even ask for money from those with whom they are flashy, it will attract attention. You don't get it both ways. If you like to talk about all the things you have an experience due to wealth and you ask for money from others, even if you don't demand it, then you don't get to dictate whether people will talk about it.

It's like celebrities who chose to live in the spotlight and draw attention vs those who simply buy nice homes away from the press and don't try to get attention for their privilege. People rarely talk about them. They lead their lives without needing attention for all they have.

If you don't want people to talk about your wealth, then don't talk about your wealth. If you don't want people to wonder why you need money, then don't ask for money. [/quote]
