Wishful thinking. Third generation + is when you get into old money territory... everything else is nouveau riche

It’s a well known phenomenon. First generation works hard, second witnessed the hard work and continues and is not wasteful, third generation is spoiled, lacks financial literacy and wastes it. Lots of drug abuse, etc.

What happened? Let me guess -- you can't get in to one and are bitter and thus rambling about people tagging "their parent's" club? And your parents aren't members at one? This unreasonable bitterness is clearly coming from somewhere.

No we are actually members ourselves. And have never tagged it.

Are you jealous because you dont have generational wealth? Let's be honest, in country clubs of all places there is a hierarchy, and the legacies or "old money" families are at the very top, no comparison. The newbie members are always lower tier until theyve been there a couple of decads. Maybe that's why it bothers you so much?

You don’t actually belong to a CC. And it shows.

I actually do. And surely have belonged much longer than you

I’ve belonged since birth. lol!

I doubt that.

I don't. DP

And?

And ... your "doubt" and desperate need to post is stupid.

According to... a random DCUM troll posting from their parents' basement?

Pretty clear that you are the troll with this "posting from their parents' basement" stuff. And fwiw, I doubt anyone here is posting from their parents' basement givin how old it skews around here.

If not at second generation. My grandparents were old-money (vast amounts of it, name on college buildings, etc) and major contributors to their CC. Mainly because my grandmother loved golf. My mother might as well have come out of a trailer park -- and when she and my step-father applied to the CC (she'd been playing there for years in leagues and with my grandmother as a guest), they were turned down which is kind of unheard of (might actually have been my uncle and his wife's influence as I'm sure they didn't want my mother there, or the interview really could have been that bad knowing my step-father). Not sure why my mother was such a mess and absorbed virtually nothing about how to behave from my grandparents, but it is how it was.

Shocking they were turned down. At Washington Golf they let them ALL in.
