We all live on the same planet, but it is so diverse that it might seem that we are living in a different dimension. It can depend on the nature that surrounds us, what natural disasters occur, our country’s economic state, the government, the education system and other aspects. 

But even people living in the same geographical and political space might not share the same reality. Like how rich people and poor people experience a totally different life. What is the most interesting is that one is not aware of how good or how bad the other’s life is.

One Twitter user might have had her eyes opened to this phenomenon because she asked “You ever watch a rich person's expression change when you ask a question that's too poor?” People had some very amusing and quite concerning stories about the wealthier part of society that are clueless how the majority of the world lives.

    This one is actually kinda cute in a way. Yes they should have realized not everyone can afford to visit Paris but they were really trying to help and imo not offensive unlike a lot of others on this list

    For real. Work at a grocery store. 8 or the 10 managers have unused degrees that are still being paid for. College does not equal great paying job.

    Wow, hope they got wiser. I was lucky my only friend in primary school was loaded but understood my family was the complete opposite, she was never mean about it, but always tried to help, like I couldn’t afford things at sleepovers the rich kids could, so she would spot me etc.

    Goodness. This reminds me of the time my college friend's parents visited my home and the first question out of their mouths is 'how many square feet is it in here' as though that mattered more than us as humans. The mom proceeded to ask my mother if she had a 10 year plan for me. During my mother's stunned silence, the mom cluelessly proceeded to offer to make one for me if I didn't have one?????

    You know, at least they made an effort. So many people get immediately offended by stuff like this, but sometimes rich people are people too and they can be awkward in some situations same as poor people. If they're not being condescending or malicious, then why should it put a fn chip on somebody's shoulder? Maybe, in turn, relate to the awkwardness and both people could wind up with an enriching and rewarding friendship or, at least, experience.

    This one isn't entirely accurate. I grew up poor in another country and often had mint jelly...with any meal, really. Yes, that includes free lunches and such. In the country I live now, mint jelly is only found in the foreign food aisle, and mostly purchased by people who think they are high class and 'sophisticated'. It's not about being rich or poor...it's simply where/how the food is marketed.

    I seriously do not understand the issue with living in an apartment. That's an American thing. In Germany basically everyone lives in an apartment. No one cares about buying a house. It's just not common.

    While living in New York City after the Wall Street Crash, I was financially struggling and my friend got me a gig for a repeat client of his on Long Island.The job was to build a PowerPoint for the clients son for a school experiment. The experiment was this: in his father's office building he set up cameras that video taped the kid dropping $5 bill. His hypothesis was that rich people would give the money back to him and poor people would keep it because they are struggling and therefore less honest. I was supposed to build a PowerPoint that stated his experiment worked and clearly poor people did not return the money. The footage showed nothing of the sort, and was just crap all together. I politely tried to explain. Economic status doesn't translate into honesty, and that his assertions were offensive but he did not care. He was a rich brat and believe poor people were scum. There were so many things wrong with the whole situation.
