[quote=Anonymous]I am decidedly middle class but do have several friends/acquaintances who are most definitely upper class. Like, there are major universities that have buildings with their last name on them. They use summer as a verb. Good people, but wealth that is unbelievable. Anyway, they all talk about how they or their spouse were working at the bottom rung of the family business at age 14-15 and how their kids will do the same. It’s not about money - they were all born with trust funds- but about learning a work ethic and an emotional investment in the family businesses. Even if they ultimately choose not to work or to do something else, they know and appreciate what they have. [/quote]
