I was stating a fact and you were being "noxious", by being "cutesy"; if that's actually what you were being, instead of uninformed/attempting to self aggrandize..>>>>>

I was being noxious by being cute ?

Only in your view. LOL

Uninformed ?

Again the phrase "old money" is well known to peoples of all walks of life.

Self aggrandize ?

Because I state my unearned family heritage ?

You were being nasty and you were wrong to do so.

Look, this is the second thread I have seen you posting about how much money you have/come from. That's self aggrandizing/braggadocio and yes, noxious.

Just admit it...you weren't being "cutesy" at all, you either couldn't remember the correct term, or you didn't know it.

I stated facts. I wasn't "nasty"; unless I hit you too close to the bone.

You claim to live in N.Y.C., come from money, but consider the Forbes article to be off base for an upper middle class family of 4. That just jive.

And whilst we're on the subject of "nasty", calling a fictional family ( which IS what the Forbes thing is ), nouveau riche and worse, was nasty of you.

What people are failing to take into consideration, is that the article is about the upper middle class. It's also rather hypothetical and generalized. Taking it personally, which you and others have done, is silly; especially for you, who are unmarried and childless.

Don't feed the troll, sweetie! Amazing how she can turn the most innocent discussion thread into a personal attack : -( Rose
