What do i mean with native: spacing, colors, etc. are internally variables
Rich people pay me lots of money to reupholster their ugly, boring-ass beigey-grey furniture to make it look… same ol’ boring beigey-grey. Then they display it In their giant beige house.
Makes me want to fucking scream. Rich boomers have absolutely no fucking taste.
The person who wrote this clearly isn’t familiar with rich people. Billionaires and multimillionaires do this stuff. McMansions are for the poor millionaires.
The ultra rich use imported marble for their bathrooms. They fly in the best plaster artist in the country to make a mural in the foyer. The butler’s pantry is lined with $100/sqft wallpaper. The desks are made of rare Italian old growth hardwood.
Some of it is gaudy, some of it is tasteful. But it’s hard to comprehend just how expensive everything in their houses are. They spend a million or two dollars on AV alone.
Source: I was a pro AV commissioner/programmer for a long time. Fun fact: AV was deemed “essential work” during lockdown. Another fun fact: rich people stopped tipping entirely during lockdown.
I can tell you exactly how much every single one of those things is worth once their mansions are burned to the ground.
The stone might be salvageable
Fun fact, the grand prize for the largest privately owned house in the US [still] goes to George Washington Vanderbilt II, who commissioned construction of the Biltmore Estate in 1889.
At 178,926 sqft. (16,622.8 m2), it is only slightly smaller than the average Walmart Supercenter.
So what you’re saying is that I’m doing better than he is because I’m living in the back of a Walmart.
“Maybe rich people should build weird fountains, again.”
“The Wasserspiele of Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe are 300 years old, powered entirely by gravity, and entertaining tourists. As legacies for rich people go, there are far worse ones.”
Been saying this for years. Todays rich people are fucking bad at being rich. It’s truly a skill issue.
Farting sounds=worth it.
I saw an exhibit at a museum about wealth throughout history. Italian “chopines” were popular during the renaissance to show power and wealth. The higher the shoe, the more elite you were. Look at this goofy shit:
I think there was a small bit of practicality to these, even if they were primarily wealth and status symbols. Most of the streets were covered in excrement at the time, as there wasn’t any sewage or plumbing. If you could afford a pair of these “chopines,” you could keep up out of the muck while walking about. I guess just don’t get them too tall, or ya might trip and tip lol
You can see the discoloration around the base of sone if them, which shows the utility of the idea, but I suspect the extreme height was deliberately to make them impractical to show you don’t need to work, in the same way long trains on dresses show you don’t do anything much and can afford someone to follow you around holding it up, or lawns showed you didn’t need your land to produce food.
Like how pale skin used to be a mark of rich people because poor people had to toil in the sun all day. Of course, once the poor people moved into offices and other indoor jobs, it became attractive to have a tan showing you can afford to lie on the sun all day instead of working.
If you could afford a pair of these “chopines,” you could keep up out of the muck while walking about.
Reminds me of Monty Python.
“I could tell he’s a king!” “Really, how?” “Well, he ain’t all covered in shit now is he?”
That would certainly make sense, considering how the front of these towards the bottom is shaped like a wedge.
Sure, people are good at the silly “i’m better than you”.
They made a comeback recently. Platform shoes are everywhere
I’m equally pissed off that we get billionaire tech mogul taking over the government but he doesn’t even have a volcano island populated with goons or a giant skull base.
- that we’re aware of…
plus - Epstein’s isle.
The tumblr user thinks the rich people live in McMansions
The user is Finnish, so they might not know that much about the US rich people
This is what differentiates old money from nouveau-riche. They’re both evil, but the first have a sense of dignity about it.
This would be the issue if I were rich, I’d want to spend so much money supporting people that I’d probably no longer be rich.
Keuhkopussirotta is a great username
Yours isn’t bad either 🇫🇮💪🏼
They still do shit like this. They make the crafts people sign NDAs so they can’t talk about their work.
If I was rich I’d I’d try my hardest so nobody goes hungry ever
