    Do you know someone who might be quite well off, but pretends to be poor?
    Do you find that these people also are quite prideful, selffish, and care about money tooo much?





    there is this girl who drives me nutz with this issue
    when we go out for dinner she might say (can we go somewhere cheap), than the next day spends $300 on a Burberry bag (which she uses daddy's credit card for)


    or I invite her over to my house for dinner
    sometimes from some friends i hear "oh good, i dont have to cook" which ok, sometimes I dont like to hear, but whatever if they do the dishes than i'm ok
    but one time from her I heard "Oh good, I can save some money"
    what am I? A free dinner service? well lets just say I didn't make final plans with her

    this is the same girl who guys a XBOX 360 for her bf when she has no job

    or buys a brand new car (which by her salary can not afford)

    although she has no money, she never has a dent in her credit card either


    I drive her to the airport from 2 1/2 hours away (think about round trip, which means driving that 2 1/2 hours home alone)
    i make jokes about how she should treat me to lunch
    and when we go for lunch, just in case she does treat me, i order the cheapest thing
    HA, i was wrong, no lunch, no gas money, not even a bloody THANK YOU
    we went out to lunch with a friend (who lives by the airport)
    and she noticed our friend's additude was more of a "I EXPECT you to do these kinds of things for me because you are my friend"

    this is what i dun like...taking advantages off friends as if it's a must...i've encountered so many cases as such...really pissed me off

    this kind of cheapskate really needs a smack on the face...
    just try to avoid this gal and dun drive her anywhere anymore and if u really 1 2 cook then invite me...i'm sure i'm 100x better....

    well i do understand why people do it

    i must admit i do DO it sometimes
    i dont give off the vibe that i've got money in my pocke to people who are always talking about how poor they are (when they really are), cause i dont want them to feel akward or jealous or, what's that word
    oh ENVIOUS

    but i think she's one of those people who always has something wrong with her life, drama queen sort of
    you know when you have the battle or who can come up with the more "cham" story
    always want people to feel sorry for you

    either that or she pretends she is poor so she can act cheap to her friends and save money to buy nice pretty things for herself


    this is an observation from her current roommate, he said "why is she so cheap to everyone else, when she is so selffish about money towards herself"




    i think she feels poor because in the past she had a roommate she idolized
    the girl had MAD money, like bought an LV/Guuci/Dior bag once every two weeks

    was smart in school, therefore knew that after she graduated she wouldn't need to rely on daddy's money

    and was pretty and had the best bf

    so the (girl who i am mad at) wanted to be just like her, took the same major as her, said she wanted to same career path

    i told her once during shopping she shouldn't buy (this) item cause it was too expensive and she already spent to much
    and she said "well i didn't spend as much as (roommate's name)"

    shows she is always comparing herself to the other girl

    I don't pose being poor but I like good deals.

    Maybe in smallrinilady's friend's case, the burberry bag's original price was $2000. When she saw the price dropped to $300, she quickly bought it because it's a good deal.

    But the airport thing is really impolite. She should have at least said "let's have lunch someday" and a "thank you." It will cost her nothing except some air, saliva, and time.

    nyckeion ....Boo....

    well according to her then the bag is 300 dollars but you can see she is using her dads credit card so even if its a deal or not do you think your parents are going to scream at her for eating out with her friends lets just say she uses about 30 dollars for a steak dinner its going to show up where she ate so the parents are not ignorant yet

    she can go get a 300 dollar bag.... doesnt make much sense

    just materialistic

    have you known any people who rather skip a lunch so they can use that money for shopping?
    i have friends like that
    hell i use to be like that when i was in high school

    ^lol eat then shop, why would you need to miss lunch to shop
     
  18. smallrinilady

    smallrinilady Well-Known Member

    it's not that
    it's the idea that you use the $10 you would for eating to buy something pretty

    i knew plenty of girls in grade school who would save their lunch money to go buy make up
     

  19. lol for reals... all this gossip... n drama...


    so basically you're saying she's not well off... yet she tries to be... but most of the time she acts poor??


    maybe she just likes to spend money on herself and just tries to save whenever she go out with friends...
