POSH AND RICH DIFFERENCE
Most people think that just because you are rich that would mean you are incredibly posh as well. There is actually a big difference between the two. Rich people have a lot of money, but there are chances that they will ran out of money and they will no longer be rich, technically, not a lot of people stay rich in their entire lifetime. However, a posh person, on the other hand, doesn't need a lot of money to be considered as posh. Simply because, a posh person is a classy person, and class is permanent.

Looks are deceiving when it comes to appearance versus reality. Things are not always as they appear to be in real life. To many human beings, wealth can be mistaken as happiness and happiness can be mistaken as wealth. People become obsessed with the idea that along with wealth brings carefree happiness. However, ironically this can lead to ones failure.
Class is a social system of hierarchy based on economic wealth. Joseph O. Jewell, author of Race, Social Reform, and the Making of a Middle Class: The American Missionary Association and Black Atlanta, 1870-1900, explains class as to “exist in large part as cultures-shared set of rules, ideologies, or
The upper class is on the top of the social class and are the “wealthiest”. Certain stereotypes of upper class have been their appearance of being well dressed with expensive clothing. They are seen to have expensive lifestyles expensive vacations. Their behavior
They often follow or believe in what their great grandparents believed. The identity of person comes from the people pasts, which shapes their unique
There is lower, middle, and upper class, but there are also subcategories that fill the gaps in between, like the impoverished and the top one percenters. “Class in America”, written by Gregory Mantsios, addresses the myths and realities about socioeconomic class in America and how they affect American lives. His article highlights the unequal divide that has persisted over the course of history and will continue to manifest in the future. To introduce the existence of this issue, Mantsios states that this country’s citizens “don’t like to talk about class...or class privileges, or class oppression, or the class nature of society” (Mantsios 378). This is the case in America today because people are neglecting to acknowledge the existence of these elusive
Society don't care where the money comes from, because it makes a person seem successful. Whoever doesn't have much according to them, is a lazy and useless
This makes me feel as if wealth takes away the humanity in a person where we, sometimes, see a person’s wealth before we see the person for who they are. Yet, if a person has no material possessions to represent themselves except their existence then we see that person from a more human
You are more likely to see the upper class define themselves proudly rather than people of a lower class. The only thing that hasn’t been discussed is the fact that the opportunities given to the higher social classes use that to their advantage. David Brooks argues in his piece “How We Are Ruining America” that the upper-middle class parents’ hinder the same educational opportunities of children of a lower social class because upper-middle class parents make it their priority to invest in their children’s education. Upper-middle class parents want to make sure their kids maintain their status and do not fall
After watching the video “people like us”, I believe that class is made by large number of people with similar economic status or position. On the other hand, you can find people who try to fit in upper social class i.e. “Tammy’s Story”. Tammy lives with her four children’s in a trailer. She works as janitor in a local burger shop. Her job helps her pay the bills.
This being because my immediate family has been in different places along the “middle class” scale. For example, both of my sets of grandparents, who live near me and my hometown, are fairly wealthy farmers. However, when my father first started farming, he was anything but, and eventually became much worse off. While I was a small child, I was at the lower end of the middle class, but I never was aware of it due to the reputation of my grandparents and their success. I am also aware therefore, that class is not just about finances, it reflects who you interact with, who you are accepted by, and who does not accept you.
When you have money how do you act? Many people in the world believe that being rich and having good money defines what kind of person you are. Money should not identify the kind of person you are. In A Raisin in the sun the character Walter really wants money to help him and not his family, but it should never be like that family should go first.
The lower class works for their living and spends what money they have on things they need. Whereas the upper class, usually has a higher education and better paying jobs than the other classes in America. Thus, heritage plays a big part in reasons of social classes.
It was a term most knew as “old rich”. While the “new rich was a social class that is used as today. As Nick had stated “I am still a little afraid of missing something if I forget that, as my father snobbishly suggested, and I snobbishly repeat, a sense of the fundamental decencies is parceled out unequally at birth”(Fitzgerald 11). By Nick saying this he had meant that money isn't the only thing that some people are born to. Some people are naturally well with manners and more loyal and they have more sense of the fundamental morals.
There are things money cannot buy that could consider being wealthy as long as I have my family, to be healthy, and to be happy. As life begins and love never ends, family is the number one aspect of being wealthy. I do not need a lot of money to have a rich life. Even though I may not have all the material things I ever wanted, my loving family are worth the load in gold.
