(#1) Dress Code
From Redditor u/Daro10:
Once heard my sister's friend say to her mom, “I’ve never worn the same outfit twice and I don’t ever plan to.”
(#2) Surprise?
From Redditor u/PazzaCiccio:
A girl in my school was "surprised" by her parents in the school's parking lot with a new BMW. A freaking BMW. Everyone who is out is basically watching this go down and she starts crying. At first we are all thinking its because she's so happy but then she runs back into the school. Apparently they were supposed to show up earlier (I'm assuming when there would be more students to witness the surprise).
I felt bad for the dad because he looked totally embarrassed and sad about it. You know in his head he's like, "I created this monster."
(#3) Quick Fix
From Redditor u/vobvobvob99:
One of my college classmates wrecked his Range Rover over winter break and came back in an Aston Martin
(#4) Wishful Thinking
From Redditor u/Five_Star_Amenities:
He was 25 years old when I knew him. His father owned oilfields. He had a credit card that he used for anything and everything, that they paid the balance on every month. He never even kept track of what was charged on it, just bought whatever caught his fancy. He openly and shamelessly admitted that he had offered his college professor money to give him a passing grade.
One day he was cranky about something and said, "I wish my parents would just die, so I could have their money. Why should I have to wait?"(#5) Bad Behavior
From Redditor u/thecrusadeswereahoax:
Went to a destination wedding in Mexico resort. Rich kids rented a golf cart, tore through the streets and flipped the cart, injuring people and causing a huge commotion and traffic jam.
A Mexican lady comes out and begins to scold them for their behavior.
"You wouldn't act this way at home!"
Rich kid responds, "I promise you we do."
It was the earnestness of his reply that got me.
(#6) Club Kid
From Redditor u/ScientisticalMystica:
I worked as a bouncer at a high end night club. The biggest jerk of a rich kid, straight out of Malibu’s Most Wanted, gets a VIP booth and bottle service. Racks up a massive bill trying to act like a baller. His credit card gets denied and he has to call his dad to come down at 1:30 am because he can’t order any more bottles.
His dad comes down in his pajamas. Obviously ashamed and furious at this kid. Ends up embarrassing the s**t out of his kid in front of his whole group of friends. He takes the kids keys and is about to leave when his kid makes some comment and goes back in the club. The dad's about to walk away after he apologizes for his son when we offer to drag him out the rough way, he smiles and accepts. That kid hit every door and step on the way out.
Not the best story but was one of the most satisfying experiences working at that club.
(#7) Delayed Reaction
From Redditor u/733094:
There was this 15-year-old girl who was going on an exotic vacation to some pacific island or something. But her favorite show was on TV the day of their flight, and she really wanted to see it. Her parents delayed the flight so that she could watch an episode of her favorite show.
(#8) Hot Spot
From Redditor u/-ipaguy-:
I called out a woman who parked her car dead center over the dividing line between two empty spots. She responded, "I know I did, and it's because I drive a Lexus. Don't make me call my husband on you."
(#9) Good Time
From Redditor u/babbchuck:
Group of rich high school kids in Montana out driving around, drinking. Found two combines (large farm tractor thingies, worth about $250k each) out in a wheat field. Decided to have a demolition derby. Got caught. In the judges chambers, with the farmer, who just wanted the damages reimbursed. The high-end family lawyers asked what the hell they were thinking when they did it. The response: “Well, you can’t put a price on a good time”. Turns out that was the wrong answer...
(#10) Career Opportunities
From Redditor u/ Nouseriously :
Went to school with a crazy rich kid, his parents divorced and each decided to buy his love. Mommy owned a real estate agency, so she got him a license and spoon fed him enough sales for a six-figure income.
The dad then BOUGHT HIM A MAGAZINE.
Yes, the dad bought a magazine for his 24-year-old substance-addled son to "run." Worked about as well as you'd imagine.
(#11) Can't Get Away
From Redditor u/RyanOhNoPleaseStop:
My step-sis blew a Paris vacation because she didn't bother to get her passport renewed. A week later, her sugar daddy bought her a vacation to Mexico for a week. She missed that one too.
Also a year earlier her mom got her a seven-day cruise that she missed because her mom didn't bother to check when her spring break was.
It keeps me up at night thinking about all the money that has been wasted to get her out of the country.
(#12) Cleaning House
From Redditor u/Anagoth9:
My brother works at a rehab center for the kids of wealthy parents. He's always got stories, but the one that sticks with me the most was a kid who was in trouble with the law and doing rehab before his court appearances. You know, to look like a better person and hopefully the judge would go easier on him. He was mopey one day and my brother asks him what's wrong. The kids starts talking about how tough the whole experience has been for him, how it's been so hard on his family that his parents had to sell his house to pay for his rehab.
My brother felt sympathetic and says, "Damn, that sucks that your parents had to sell their house over this," to which the kid corrected him, "No, they kept their house. They had to sell mine."
(#13) Maid To Order
From Redditor u/sholbyy:
I worked at a Starbucks and we hired a new guy, who I was training. At one point, I had to show him how to clean the restrooms. I grab the bleach, and hand him a pair of gloves and he looks at me in disgust and says, "We don't have a maid to clean the bathrooms?"
He quit the next day LOL.(#14) Part-Time Job
From Redditor u/DeputyDongz:
I deliver pizza in a very rich area. I’m talking seeing Rolls Royce’s and supercars on a daily basis kind of rich.
My manager told me a story of someone that used to work there. This guy would deliver pizzas in a brand new BMW M3 and just put absolutely no effort into his job (delivering pizza isn’t hard).
Apparently this guy only had a job because his parents wouldn’t pay his allowance if he didn’t work.
How much was his allowance?
$5,000 a month
This guy was making $60,000 a year to deliver pizza part time.
(#15) Ice Breakers
From Redditor u/Marshmallowcassie:
Back in high school we were doing one of those ice breakers where we passed a beach ball around and whoever caught it had to answer the question their thumb landed on. Well, this kid who has proclaimed being rich numerous times before talking about his parents owning a known pizza place and how he drives an expensive sports car caught the ball and his question was "If you won a million dollars what would you do with it?"
His response was somewhere along the lines of: "A million dollars wouldn't make any difference in my life"
(#16) Mother/Daughter Bonding
From Redditor u/Bammerice:
One girl from my high school got breast implants for her 18th birthday. Her mom joined her as a mother/daughter bonding activity, followed by the daughter getting a brand new $90,000 Mercedes as a high school graduation gift.
(#17) Snack Time
From Redditor u/Vinegar_Fingers:
Dunno if it qualifies as rich kid syndrome but when I got out of the Navy, I decided to use my GI bill at one of the Penn State satellites. I was sitting in the cafeteria drinking coffee and typing up a paper when a girl sits down across from me and opens her backpack. She pulls out a sandwich bag and looks at it in disgust then looks me dead in the eye and says, "I don't even know why I bother my mother never cuts off the crust,"
I let out one of those high pitched short laughs like is this girl for real? Oblivious to the tone of it she says, "I know, right?" Then asks me if I want it.
I looked around thinking I was getting pranked or something cause this shit is too stereotypical to be real and I just assumed I was being filmed. She shook it at me and gave me a "Well?" look. So I said f**k it and took the sandwich, she then pulled out her student ID card and bought a crap ton of french fries.
That sandwich was awesome, I think the bread was homemade and it was stacked like a Dagwood. It had all kinds of expensive looking meats and Dijon mustard, serious gourmet s**t. I know this girls mother will never see this but I just wanna say someone appreciated that sandwich.
(#18) Chump Change
From Redditor u/Lemuria_666:
My friend literally throws away his change because he hates holding coins. Doesn't matter if it's $.99, he'll throw it away. That sh*t adds up.(#19) Monster Mantra
From Redditor u/tommyg**z007:
Waiter here.
When I worked at a suburban restaurant in Towson, MD, every week I waited on the white overwhelmed mom with one or two kids, and she had a $50k ring on her finger, and designer everything. She always was stressed because she had no clue about anything about life. She felt opening her legs was enough, and that she shouldn't have to do anything else, like be a better mom for her kids.
So this type of person would come to our restaurant with her kids, wait for her husband, let her kids destroy the place, get mad at us, she would invariably say "Do you KNOW who my husband is?" at some point during her mistreatment of the staff, take her husband's credit card from him, pay, sign, and tip like shit because she had to have control or power or some c**p. Her kids would be covered in food, and there would be cheerios in a 30' circle around the table. Her husband would give zero f**ks about this wife of his, and they would leave together. Two days later, another one would come in, and do EXACTLY the same thing.
Every week:
"Do you KNOW who my husband is?"
It became the mantra of the place I worked, and I quit after 8 months.
(#20) Merry Ex-Mas
From Redditor u/practeerts:
My ex expected me to pay for her food and entertainment after we broke up. Confused the hell out of me but it was hilarious.
