AIBU to think society needs to stop admiring old money?

[TheTidyReader]

Me and DH are both "new money", not uber rich but multimillionaires in our thirties. We've spent a lot of time around other wealthy people and there seems to be no bigger joke than those who've inherited it

Often very racist/backwards
Clearly not intelligent/capable enough of getting here themselves
Look down on average people more often, despite the fact they are average people themselves
Far more likely to do disgusting sex crimes

This isn't the case all the time, but the difference is very clear. AIBU to wonder why when all this is true the people who've actually got here on merit are the more disliked group?

2/10.

Go and take a few lessons from Henry Higgins and no one will be able to tell the difference. Oh, and acquire tweeds covered in dog hair, a pair of gun dogs, and an elderly estate car. For best effect, randomly shout ‘What ho!’ or drop in references to how hard it is to keep the wolf from the Palladian portico these days.

Life is so difficult isn't it . . .
