[quote=Anonymous]She grew up in Harlem likely seeing all kinds of people around her living in all kinds of true paycheck to paycheck struggling to get by situations (even if her family wasn’t like that). She now works at a non profit likely working with clients who are truly struggling. Chances are she already feels a bit “guilty” whether she recognizes it or not, for having made 3-4 years of big law money and having a steady 75k job with benefits, a retirement account, health insurance etc. when she knows not everyone does. So yeah to someone like that a $300 coat or taking a $20 cab when you could take a $3 subway or a 5 star hotel stay is going to sound insane excess, while to someone who hasn’t been raised in and working in those surroundings and is a high paid white collar professional, those things are just the normal trappings of life.[/quote]
