In almost every school there are people that have more money than you, or another group. I am not trying to brag or anything, but I am not poor, but I cant buy 100 dollar jeans either. I shop at Hollister and people always accuse me of being 'rich' when I cant shop at the store that owns them, Abercrombie. I wish people would stop being so mean to people that have money. Its just that the people I have talked to say that you should spend your money in other ways than buying clothes, and houses and other things. What do you guys think about the 'money and clothes and popularity' differences in high schools today?

yea... ok well, i used to live in a country club neighborhood before i moved, when we moved there we bought our house for around 400,000. Which was a pretty good price for what we were getting. Then the realestate in our town blew up and we sold our house for 1 million in four years. And everyone always said i was rich, well my parents worked real hard to get us in that house so we would all be happy, and i was. But when i got called rich it made me mad, because it wasnt true. I still couldnt afford 70 dollar jeans. And now since hollister became popular, i wear it like every day, and people always call me 'rich'... well take a look around, have i ever been caught wearing 70 jeans? no, i could if i wanted too, but its just not nessacary when i can get the same stuff for 40 dollars. And now just because i live in a 'all brick' house, how does that make me special and set me apart from everyone else?
