One easy test of mine to see if what comes out of rich people's mouths is bullshit is to find out if they really follow their words. For example, you've got a lot of politicians and and CEO championing making junior and high schools into "job incubators" a.k.a teaching kids coding or something. But then if you look at the private schools rich kids attend, there is just so much freedom, so many extra-curricular activities to explore the world and themselves, and none of the stress of competitiveness, of always anxious because of "sink or swim".

Another example. Your boss's boss tell you that your job is your life, that you should be proud to have dedicated so much time to your company. See what your boss really does everyday beside attending meeting and three hours lunches. See if your boss takes the biggest cut of compensation and gets the fuck out before the company sinks.

This is not a difficult thing to do, and yet it frustrated me to no end that not many Americans actually do that. Some genuinely hold bullshit beliefs about rich people, even when these people might just live two or three blocks away from them. And they say America is a country obsessed with celebrities. The lower class really have no idea about the upper class, right?
