The lifestyles of the rich and famous aren't as charmed as you may think. Competitive men tend to marry beautiful women, who then are under tremendous pressure to stay beautiful through exercise, clothes, makeup, sometimes surgery and eating disorders. The pressure for her and her future kids to keep up appearances is significant. There is more alcoholism in the upper class than the middle class, and less acceptance of kids' unique interests (so no, little Grayson can't study music theory or become a social worker -- he has to be a banker like dad). Adult children become strangely beholden to their wealthy parents. If it seems like I might have a chip on my shoulder on this topic, I do. But believe me that money does not fix everything, and sometimes it makes things worse.[/quote]

Agree x10000.  Money comes with a lot of constraints and there are are a LOT of jerks with money that you have to coddle.  Personally I love this quote from John Waters:

[b]"I’m rich! I don’t mean money-wise. I mean that I have figured out how to never be around a*holes at any time in my personal and professional life. That’s rich."[/b]
