Trustafarians: When the Rich Pretend to be Poor
(www.youtube.com)
That's just called Burning Man
Is that like your brother or what?
You'll never live like common people. You'll never do whatever common people do.
They say you can always spot them by their teeth.
I don’t give my money to anyone, usually. Except specifically some nader chasers I’ve
followed for years. They’re out there losing windshields for my enjoyment. That’s it tho.
Now thats what I call appropriating.
The rich have always imitated the rest of us.
Tattoos used to see you barred from many military and civil service organizations. Now ink is considered cosmopolitan and they're allowed.
Low-income service workers used to occupy the top floors of residential buildings, and even set up makeshift accomodation on building roofs. They called them penthouses.
Look at the shift in treatment of marijuana in the United States over the last decade.
can I have a source for that second claim? Wikipedia says penthouses were specifically designed to be upscale property as early as 1923
My understanding is prior to the invention of the elevator, the expensive floor was the ground floor.
Papa Meat!!!
like half of the Grateful Dead tour on the late 80s and early 90s
