I have friends across the entire socio-economic sprectrum, from people who left school at 15 and don't have much money to very wealthy people. This includes three people who are amazingly wealthy. All three have multi-millions, including one who is worth approx. $50m.
All three of the super-wealthy friends seem to have very little sense of humor, and I would say are actually quite dull compared to my "normal" friends. As in, they have virtually no witty repartee, they don't laugh much, and are just quite serious.
I'm wondering if they only sparkle in front of other multimillionaires!
My dad had a friend who was worth multimillions, and HE was full of sparkle!
It's true that three people isn't exactly a huge sample size, but I was wondering what your experience is of VERY wealthy people.
And if you ARE one of those people, do you only come to life in front of those who are on your financial level??
Background: One person is a doctor, one is a partner in a huge law firm, and one inherited all his money from his wife. The doctor also inherited a lot from her husband, although she also makes 500k a year, and the third one also makes around $500k but also has a very wealthy wife.
