looking for rich friends only

It always gives me a chuckle each every time I see these types of people. Actually, I feel sorry for them. I mean, they don't realize that they're not impressing a lot of people by showing off. I think it's just being insecure on their part. They lack confidence. Take away their riches and they'd be lost. And you never know. Maybe only one of them is truly rich and famous. The others maybe social climbers who want to get attention by being seen hanging out with the rich.

It is a sad but true fact that birds of a feather do in fact flock together. Most people are not very open minded to people who are different then them and so they soley seek out the friendship of people who they view to be like them. In the instance that you gave it is rich kids who only wish to hang out with other rich kids but the truth is it is the same concept as the jocks hanging out with the jocks and nerds hanging out with other nerds. We tend to hang around people who we feel comfortable around. Think about it if you were poor and were the only one in the group who could never afford to go any of the places the group went or buy any of the things other people in the group buy would you have much fun going out with them, would you really feel comfortable? Now like with anything there are exceptions to every rule but if you are waiting for the day when exception becomes the rule I am afraid you will be waiting a very long time.

These type of people are only looking for friends with benefits. And they are opportunists. These sort of people are not true in their friendships and should be avoided at all cost.

That's sad. They were actually people who are marginalized by the people around. I asked why we should look for similar or the same friends. Such friendship is boring. You can imagine what they do, party, fun, shopping and so forth. These are people who do not want to care about the others and you want to be friends with them ? I prefer friends with anyone who could give something new in my life.

hi, i am not like that,i dont care if my friends are poor or rich,the status of their life is regardless to me,and the important is their trust and respect to each other,i think those kind of people are those who seek for benefits only they are surely user.

You're talking about the "Social Climber" type of people or the seriously rich crowd that mingles with co-elite group? Either way, in every school, in every community, these types of people are usually present and it's inevitable because those are their personalities. I don't have a problem with these exclusive groups for as long as they don't step towards me, do harm physically or even say something bad against me. Happy MyLotting!

I also observed that thing happening everywhere.. especially at school... but for me it doesn't matter if my friend is rich or not.. as long as he/she has a good character... but sad to say there are those who choose rich friends... I just hope and pray that they will look at people not according to the status or disposition in life but in the way how the person is to you even how they care for you....

Let them be. Its their choice of fun. If you eat sardines every day because you love to eat sardines. Then your happy right? So what if they rich or pretending to be rich. As long you also have a friend that is a friend simply because you like each other that's okay.

If being rich is a criteria in finding a friend, I guess you're not looking for a friend but maybe your next meal ticket, or a status symbol or something. Those who are really rich have difficulty finding real friends because they just don't know the intentions of the people they deal with. Those who want to be friends with the rich, just because they're rich, don't find real friends, either because the rich are wary of them, and they don't really associate with those who are not rich.

Birds of the same feather flocks together. It's okay to be with rich friends if you are rich also. It's hard to be friends with rich persons, because the tendency is that they always would tend to let the poor friend do the works for them. Sad , but that is true. However, some people would like to befriend rich people, because they want to be perceived as such also. Unfortunately , it's not. They are perceived , as social climbers.

Hello omchesunche, Its sad to see people making criteria to make friends.I never see if a person is rich or poor while doing friendship.Many of my friends were poor and many were rich when i was in school/college. But i think this is human tedency as we all like to mix up with the people having the same status of ours.

If you feel like a loser, have less self esteem and think you have no talents at all to make it on your own, the only thing you can do is lick heels. And if you lick heels it's better to do so with rich and famous people as it with poor people. Why? Because those who are rich and famous might help you or at least their succes will shine a bit on you (you hope).

I have never met a person that chooses rich friends, but I have known lots of people that chooses famous friends. They never interact with the not-so-famous people and they think that those kind of people are loser. I hate people like that. Whenever I see one, I especially make that I will never cross her path.

Hello omchesunche, as you told there were many in my class, they were always behind of rich people and always try to make a better relationship with between them. Anyway I am totally against these type of separation towards friends.
