Donald Trump works and has made his children work during their vacations.
Bill Gates works.
All of the Forbeses work.
The extended family Rockefeller? Yep, they all have jobs, but some of the married women don't. OTOH,many of them do charity work, raise their own children,and aren't all that different from anyone else.
All of President Bush's brothers work,as did their father before them and their grandfather.......All trustfunders.
Personally, I don't know a single trustfunder from my generation or my daughter's, who did/does NOT work, except for some of the married women.
The wealthy don't live off their investments. What century do YOU live in anyway? Stop reading books written by Edith Wharton,F.Scot Fitzgerald, or whatever " bodice rippers " you may indulge in. Who are you referring to anyway...Paris Hilton? Gee, she has a whole lot of salaried jobs.
There are no more "INTERNATIONAL PLAYBOYS"...Ali Khan and Ruberosa are dead as door nails.Taki (and even Taki works)is one of the last of the breed.
And I've got news for you, pet, I know many upper middle class men, who retired early and live off their investments. But THAT really isn't the point you're trying to make. No.........you're only a wee bit MARXIST and bitten by the green eyed monster of jealousy. It only richest of the rich, who drive you nuts. Okay, I understand it all now. But it REALLY would help your case, if you had even a glimmer of an idea what you're talking about; which you don't. :-)
Get off the pompous insults. I actually know people rich enough that they don't have to work for a living and they don't. And I'm not the least bit jealous of them, I don't envy their lifestyles. I have not said a single Marxist thing in here nor does it bother me that there are people that well off. Those depending on paychecks have more in common than you seem to care to believe --- without a paycheck their lifestyle will change. To me that makes more of us "middle-class" than you care to believe.
