OOOOOO ME ME ME Background so you don't shit on me: My mother is a single parent (pops was a cheater haven't seen him since I was 8) who graduated top of her class from NYU law school and has represented an oil-energy company for 25 years now. She's been at the top for a while and has rightfully worked her way up. I'd say we've lived amazingly since I was 13 and I've been in the upper tax bracket my whole life. My grandfather (mother's father) was successful in his own right but did not her from graduating so well.
I have a few because I went from private school in middle school to public school in high school (private school had annoying dress code)
-The four seasons is the greatest chain hotel experience out there, it's not a band or the total amount of seasons in a year. -Having top nyc chefs have special parties for you under their acclaimed resturants -A cleaning staff for the weekend parties -Student loans...public school...i hear about it but don't want to know -SO MANY CHARITY EVENTS. -Seeing most of the world before 15. -Being trilingual to better my potential future (english, german, Chinese) -Suits...suits are nice.
Me. I have not earned anything yet. I've worked for the red cross, ymca, and the world health organization. I'm currently 1 year and an mcat exam away from med school because of my hard work. I will say my sister (currently at columbia law school) and I have better opportunities. That was made clear. Unlike other rich kids I know, I work hard and don't take everything from mommy. Too many of the private school kids are simply going into finance to get dads seat. Not me. I'm extremely competitive like my mom and grandfather (went to public school to play higher level of sports) and won't let myself take a ticket.In your life time save up for not for 5-6 shit vacations if you love to be pampered. Go to the four season hotel and resorts. Hotel chains like them the ritz, the belmond (flew to one in florence for my 20th best experience ever), or Rosewood are my favorite perks of this lifestyle. The not having to worry about insurance ever and debt are the greatest.
