(17,301 posts)She had everything handed to her on a silver platter thanks to the wealth and power of her parents. So we should be celebrating she did something besides partying like the bush twins? She should succeed, there is nothing standing in her way like it is with most people.
If a middle class or poor person had done this, it would be an amazing accomplishment. Because she is so rich, it's not really all that impressive.
Personally, I really do dislike most rich people just because they are rich. Yes, I will admit it. Rich people are usually self satisfied, over indulged brats. They have poor people skills and tend be ignorant no matter how many degrees they buy. They expect the world to bow down to them just because they were born into wealth and have advantages others do not have. I find them tedious, arrogant and stupid. Most contribute nothing to society except to deteriorate it a little more for a little more wealth or power.
But most Americans are fascinated by the wealthy and to admit you find the wealthy immoral, greedy and tedious is to stray from the standard American religion of wealth worship.
