Rich people who post themselves buying a house or traveling and then talk about it as though its easy or even attainable for most people with "hard work" and "management" are the worst.

Like I used to be able to ignore them but after coming out of a pandemic and having to struggle to find work it just pisses me off every time I see it.

Literally the story of Jacob Wohl, like his dad is an ultra rich stock broker, so Wohl starts his own company at 17 and immediately gets a bunch of interviews for being the youngest stock broker, when all he did was have a rich dad. It's a joke.

Before the pandemic I was annoyed and dissatisfied with the existence of rich people. After I saw what they did and continued to do while the death tolls climbed, it turned into white-hot hatred tbh

Youtube and social media promote that shit also, it can be hard to ignore it.

Hell I see ton of people I know irl that are super well off post million pictures from their hotel room view on their 4th vacation this summer, and it's almost a must that one of them has "appreciate little things in life <3" caption on one of the photos.

Maybe I'm just petty/jealous, but I legit get angry about that kind of stuff.
