>that means anything...

It was intended to counter the suggestion that GW is exclusively a white phenomenon. It ain't. It also ain't somn all white ppl can access. Both ideas were bandied about earlier.

What I think is really going here is simple venting and pouting about the reality that no matter how hard we work and stack paper there will always be someone who has more __ bc they come from money and we don't. That makes some of us feel down sometimes. When we feel down we may act out - we may say rude, tacky things. I understand that. I've done that. This discussion in this post is about kindred spirits giving each other support - bc we all know how it feels to navigate in a world where some ppl have more money - our peers even. Especially if we are attracted to material things and stacking paper and keeping our eye on our status versus that of others this reality can wreak some havoc on our psyche.

I personally dealt with this when I was much younger. To the point where I have little patience for it now within myself. I love a good pity party but I won't host one bc my coworker has a nicer living space though we make the same money. I have been there and done that. I think some here are still working through it.
