gnvqsos Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 During the week I drive a fairly modest car and I give out and receive courtesy from other road users. Come the weekend I fetch something rather more expensive and prestigious out of my garage. I offer the same amount of courtesy to other road users as I do in my day to day ride, but the reaction from them is totally different. They will not let me out at junctions or they look at me with disgust when they pull up next to me. Ridiculous when you think about it! This attitude towards the rich has been further pointed out by many people who post on here. Another current thread points out the habit of people calling anyone wealthier than themselves a "ten bob millionaire". Is this simply a case of jealousy or is there some other reason for this hatred of success? Why do you persist in advertising your wealth-are you the South Yorkshire answer to Billy Liar or even Walter Mitty?And why do you think you are a success?

Do you think that people should hide their wealth for fear of being jibed by people such as yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
