To think these are the wealthy people habits?

[Saju1]

Not spending on perishable items..

Reads a lot..

Has a hobby...

What are others?

Keeps their clothes for years

Am definitely not wealthy and have friends who are financially better off than me ie flying to Maldives,cruising around Antarctica.
But I am humble about living in a house that is mortgage free and have the heating on if feeling cold .
I work in a care home 12hrs a week and have so much respect for everyone that works there 48 hrs and will always bring in treats etc .
Everything is relative to your own ‘normal ‘ am sure I have friends that think I live a frugal life v their life .

Skiing

Norfolk also for the country pile.. Know a few wealthy londoners who pack up on a Fri & head to their parents mansion in Norfolk, kids in tow..

Those who have money and are happy to spend it are the backbone of our economy

@WaddleAway

The people who spend the largest proportion of their income are the poor. The poorer you are, the more of your income you spend. Wealthy people keep a much higher proportion of their income in investments and savings. Very wealthy people can live off this money and don’t need to work. Eventually a large chunk of this is invested money is inherited by their children who become rich without having worked for it.

It’s the poor who work hard and put money in the economy.

My comment was in relation to those disparaging the ‘nouveau rich’ who apparently spend all their money on flash cars, botox, clothes etc.

OP has learned everything she knows about rich people from reading Gormenghast...

[Note to self: develop less outing hobby.]

@IntentionalError yes, those! And : having their own swimmingpool, a sauna in the house, going hunting, and owning a second home in St.Yves 😊

I read this as cast iron pants and was howling, but then realised my mistake….a shame as the visual image in my head of wealthy people trying to walk in cast iron pants is really funny!!!😂

Think the difference is also old money or new money.

What a bizarre op. Is this some kind of thread generating bot?

Well I have several cast iron pans, plus a nice big cast iron griddle. However, I clean them.

I also have a pasta roller in its original box.

Last time I went to the supermarket I passed the pomegranates and said, "Meh".

Cast iron pants! Yes, that would really set one apart.

well, I read that as cast iron girdle. To go with the cast iron pants no doubt. Could be a bit scratchy if any rusting, also nasty orange strains. I wonder if posh people would use Pink Stuff to get them out? Or maybe is a posh person’s thing to use a wash board?

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

New money thing.
