Doesn't this just make you want to puke in your soup?

First step in "getting rich": learn how to spell and use grammar. Just saying....

[Ccrowe17]

It's not too much different than the cliques in high school.

Disgusting. What a bunch of shallow, self-centered, gauche, arrogant twits. Regardless of how much money you may have, the old adage, "Money does not buy class" has never rung truer. I'm from the North Shore of Long Island. I've gone to school and college with some of these morons, well their parents. They've always disgusted me.

If I were making this documentary, I would never complete it. I would just end up punching people I interview in the throat over and over.

first wasp rule: use the magic words of please and thank you. there is never any excuse for rudeness. and wear clothes that fit, people....natural fabrics and prep is great but have taste and style and fit your body type.

These people are NO BETTER than Tammy from this same documentary, though Im sure they would treat her like dirt...

@bgolshahi1 So, you try to sweeten the deal by using the word "democracy"? Haha, thats good. But nope, you can't fool everyone by using big words like obama. I know what works and what doesn't. Socialism fails, capitalism works. End of story.
