'I went to the most expensive high school in my state. Since it was a boarding school, we had serious old money from all over the world. The bit about how old vs. new treats staff and how nice or rude they are is spot on. ...'
SCREAMS NEW MONEY:"The difference is how they spend their money and the importance of money in their lives. For the so-called 'new money' owners, money is itself the success and ultimate; however, for the so-called 'old money' owners, money is just the stairs to climb and reach success."many of the new money owners got their money in a short span of time and at a very young age with the urge to spend on the things they dreamed about.
That said, I’m sure there are 'old money' people who are awful to service staff because it’s always been available to them, and they consider the help to be disposable."SCREAMS NEW MONEY:"From my experience in LA, I would say new money is more 'look at me' when they donate to charity than old money is. That’s been a noticeable difference."WHISPERS OLD MONEY:"Old money genuinely believes they are worth more and therefore have nothing to prove.
"New money would not have seen generations of having staff and treating staff as kindly as, say, a friendly neighbor.One sure way to kill loyalty and discretion is to be rude and abusive, so I guess there’s always been some self-serving motivation in there, too. Happy help doesn’t gossip. I certainly wouldn’t."ALSO WHISPERS OLD MONEY:"My mom was a cleaner for an old money family, and the woman was the best.
