I know people want to hate on Bill for being rich, and I can understand that, but I still prefer him to a certain South African billionaire.
Maybe some people will say that's like comparing a giant douche to a turd sandwich though.

I worry more about the actual rent-seeking oligarchy in my part of the world running for political positions in next month's elections, purely for feudalistic reasons.
Being a billionaire in a world where most people don't even early 50k annually is objectively immoral.
This shows you how billionaires imagine middle class to be. They're completely out of touch, as expected.
Never defend a billionaire, they would never defend you. Don't defend them, idolize them, or trust them. Billionaires care about money and the power it provides, NOTHING ELSE. That's the main prerequisite for becoming filthy rich, after all.

I suppose, to her, having millions of dollars is soooo far away from her life that she has to look at it with binoculars and think that it should be middle-class.
She means she told them to hold their wallet around the blacks in the city, and that only feminine gays are acceptable.

But Daaaaaaaad, all the other kids are getting a horse farm!
Akshually. Depending on which definition you use they are middle class. The original meaning of middle class is the wealthy who don’t hold a title. They sit below the aristocracy aka upperclass, and above the peasantry aka the working class. The middle class is also called the bourgeoisie.
