My parents have leased me 4 cars in the last 8 years. They pay for my school. I work for my dad. They basically pay for everything except sorority dues, phone bill, and things that I want (going out to eat, stupid shit).

I DO NOT fit the mold of the stuck up rich girl. Yeah I may have bragged just now. When people make snide comments about me being a spoiled brat, I laugh it off. When people make threads like this and make comments saying "but I am by no means spoiled and they have never bought me a brand new car or anything like that" or "Also in my work I have found that "rich" people can be even more screwed up then the really poor people I work with", then I'll brag. It's like if someone started a thread (please don't get any ideas) saying that all pretty girls are dumb and blah blah negativity, if I were pretty I'd post a large picture of myself and say "HA". BTW... I know plenty of families who don't have all that much money and buy their children cars.

This might not make a lot of sense.

If you learn anything from this thread, let it be this. "I think it is bad that a lot of people today grow up not knowing what it is like to want things because it makes them appreciate things less in our society". Just because someone has money, it doesn't mean that they don't know what it's like to want things and appreciate things. I appreciate everything that my parents have done, especially when they try to help my friends out who "want things".

All the "rich" people I know don't fit any of these stereotypes. So should we have our own stereotype?

Stereotype and Stereotyping.... such a sucky thing.
