[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am Gen X, grew up in a flyover state and hated the narrowmindedness that was the prevailing culture there, and moved to DC after college and have had a much better experience here. I have never heard anyone say any of the generalizations that OP mentions. But I don’t have super wealthy friends. I do find that people who grew up super wealthy do skew more clueless anywhere you are, so maybe that’s the difference between my and OP’s experience. I will say that now that I and the people around me are in midlife, the people here do tend to be more anxious than back home, which can be exhausting.[/quote] I didn’t post this but this is me too.[/quote] My flyover relatives are not at all anxious. They are not trying to climb any ladders and they are content with what they have and not worried about losing it. They aren’t lobbyists and lawyers, they are engineers and car salesmen [/quote]
