[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's two different types of "wealthy" in the south: legit, old southern family wealthy, and new "wealth" which is where you make maybe $250k a year but because COL is so cheap down there, you can flash that money around all day long and look "rich."

In either case, southerners are definitely more ostentatious with their money, even the old money crowd. Definitely not the miserly threadbare New England wealthy who take pride in looking shabby and living in rundown houses. That's not how southerners roll. They like to look nice, have pretty homes, and throw damn good parties. [/quote]

Not true. Many of the old money families have old big but run down houses.[/quote]

False. The old southern families who have a name but no money might and can get away with it because of their name. But the people with money do not value shabbiness the way NE old money does. If the house is in disrepair it's because there's no money to back up that good southern name anymore. [/quote]

My parents are old southern money, have about fifteen million in assets, and have a big old run down house.[/quote]
