I grew up "around money", but not "with money", if you know the difference. I can (after over 50 years of exercising my diaphram muscle) make the following generalizations.
OLD MONEY: more often then not, can be pretty cool people...sometimes you wouldn't even know they be STINKIN' RICH !!! (because, THEY didn't earn it...some great Uncle or Grandfather did...they just spend it...)
NEW MONEY: more often then not, can be pretty big a s s h o l e s...usually because they were so "driven" to move up the socio-economic ladder because they were uncomfortable in their original humble position...& they ditest anyone else who is just as happy to remain humble, thank you very much !!!

It's the 2nd group (gruppe...you know who you are) that wants to show off their money...boring, pathetic little turds that they are... You do NOT want to get stuck in a elevator with these types. I get a kick out of the fact that 996 motors go BOOM so often....even the good Dr. P probably gets a good heavenly giggle out of it.
