To be fed up with jealous people who seem to hate anyone who has more money than them?

I seem to epitomise what some people hate - I live in a gated estate, drive a 4x4, am a SAHM and send my children to private school. Why does this mean that some people think this gives them a right to be rude to me or about the choices my family make? I would never look down on anyone who doesn't have or do what I do, so why is it ok to do it the other way round? I am so fed up with it! And you know the ones I really can't stand? Champagne socialists who think they are all left-wing with socialist ideals but are really just like me!

hmmm...sexy are you under the impression, that other people have ambitions to live in this kind of prison type environment?

do you think those of us without 4x4s,want them?

Is Olivia telling me off?

That's jealousy for you. One of the seven deadlies, right after pride.

puds11isNAUGHTYnotNAICE · 16/12/2012 23:03

I don't understand how being a sahm makes you rich nor private education as that costs a fortune.

OP, my dd has a tailor made education, far better than a private school and costs nothing. I too am a sahm. I don't drive as I don't need to, friends and family chauffer me around.

I have no money but feel far richer than you.

Gordy. Do you know it had "FREE LEGALS INCENTIVE AVAILABLE"

So, no money off, or buy one get one free, but a legal incentive. wow. Grin
