Spot on, most people with big money have grafted for it and good luck to them

 

If we're talking the mega rich, i'd have to disagree,they don't work anywhere near as hard as the average 25k a year man, what they are good at is manipulation, working the system scratching backs etc

My personal experiences are the wealthiest clients I have would appear working class to most and the ones who appear upper class don't have two pounds to rub together. I think old money is dying out and a desperate few are clinging on to the old world lifestyle whilst loading up credit cards etc, new money is formed with out view of class so cash is never wasted on keeping up appearances. I was working with my uncle once and met one of his clients, didn't think much of him just another client, surprised me to find out he owned 80% of the local comercial buildings. I'm proberly like most of the guys on here see myself as working class but wife and kids more middle class, mainly because when we go in holiday they are by the pool and I'm looking for a job to fill the week in.

No disrespect to your mates or those with a few hard/well earned millions, but these people aren't the ruling class, and in the big scheme they're quite a few rungs down the ladder, yes wealthy to the poor 90% of us, but still minnows to those a the top.

Now that I am out of debt and have more money than I ever had does that put me in a different class? :)

 

Being out of debt and having more money than you have ever had before does not put you in another class. Accomplishing this task alone means you have class:thumbup1:. I to have served customers at all income levels and for myself I choose to treat people of all classes the same way I wish to be treated. Until I have been given a reason to the contrary, which has occured:thumbdown: your ok in my book.

Classes used to be true in Victorian times and times of the workhouses. The more shaves you had meant you were if higher class.

 

Today however I see class as how much power you have rather than wealth.

 

Money doesn't talk as loudly anymore to people.

 

really!!!!:confused1: Money will all ways talk........Cash is king springs to mind!
