[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's take Prince William and Kate as an example of upper class (not just upper class but Royalty). I think that they are in the habit of always looking capable, competent, in control and are always well groomed and tastefully attired. Appearances are everything. They quietly outsource - nannies, tutors, house cleaning, grooming, dog training, yard work, catering, party planning, interior decorating, etc - to the best pros in the business that money can buy. Every detail is attended to with great care and expectations are extremely high. They are confident, educated, well traveled and this makes them well spoken and interesting. They are highly competitive but are well mannered about it.[/quote] Interesting. I disagree. They happen to be royalty. You can spend and arm and a leg and still get awful service from your employees. Of course, you fire them, but you still have to screen them and consider all angles of their hiring/firing. It can be an issue just to have a manager to do so; and you have to be involved at least minimally. There are also families that are dirt cheap, and try to pay $10. an hour, if that, so the "help" can get on their hands and knees and scrub behind the disgusting stove. So, point being, having help it is not as easy as it sounds. As for "competitive but well mannered"....I suppose. They are not resorting to trying to kick the hot MILF out of the neighborhood because the creepy husbands notice her. Or pulling every string possible and eating burgers every night, to get their not so bright son into Georgetown Day, so he will have a shot at college. So, there's that. Let's face it, royalty is royalty - and you are not royalty. [/quote]
