The similarities are obvious; there is constant worry about what others think, and a fear of not belonging to the "it crowd." I believe that this helps to explain the selective nature and need to one-up each other that can be noticed in the videos amongst the wealthy. Like high school, they desperately work to be noticed and accepted.]]> 2018-04-10 23:53:56 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/250518442 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277684 i think its crazy how many different things that rich people have to think about in order to be seen as a wealthy person. such as how far they have to stand and how different they talk. ]]> 2019-04-12 18:33:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277684 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277712 This whole family is a big sorts of messed up.  My favorite video we watched was the girl showing us how to eat properly and what they did when eating. it was really dumb tho but it was funny]]> 2019-04-12 18:33:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277712 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277750 All I could think of was how crazy the way the wealthy people who were interviewed thought of simple things such as eating at a restaurant. Taking a simple task and filling it with more work. When I go out to eat I kind of think of it as a break from my day, I don't believe I need to go out of my way to not talk to the staff leaving them clues to me being done with my plate. ]]> 2019-04-12 18:34:02 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277750 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277756 I think it's weird how people have that much money and think they need to show it off or they're better than everyone else. In the video "Trouble In Paradise" the guy said she judged people by money and he judged people by actions and personality. Also, in that video I didn't like how she said that she didn't think of the working class as classy people.]]> 2019-04-12 18:34:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277756 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277770 I find that the hole idea of putting our selves in groups and pitting our selves against each other is atrocious.]]> 2019-04-12 18:34:06 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277770 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277776 I think some of the things that were in the videos were crazy. I just can't believe people in this world acts like what the people were acting like. Some ways that people acted in theses videos is  not okay. Like how the one girl thinks that police officers are not high class they are more lower class in her mind. And how she judge the man next to her that he is in middle class but closer to lower class. ]]> 2019-04-12 18:34:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277776 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277819 I think that all of these videos were interesting and very annoying.

One other thing is that the ones with the money get away with things that non rich people most likely would be throw in jail for. ]]> 2019-04-12 18:34:30 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277937 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277960 I think that some rich people could not want to be seen as "rich people" why just worked hard to get to were they are. On the other hand some would be a snob and have to stay 6 inches apart.]]> 2019-04-12 18:34:34 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351277960 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351278075 2019-04-12 18:34:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351278075 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351278278 i think that it was crazy that in the video about how the high class eat is that if everyone else is done eating that means you are too.]]> 2019-04-12 18:35:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351278278 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351278387 In my personal opinion, I believe it's just unlawful that someone who has lots of money doesn't have to pay the time for committing the crime. It shouldn't matter how much money or how you were raised. ]]> 2019-04-12 18:35:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351278387 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351278713 I think its crazy to think if you have  a lot money you can get away with tons of things. ]]> 2019-04-12 18:36:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351278713 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351278778 With all of these videos, I found it interesting that the people who were wealthy believed that they were of more worth and were better than someone without as much money. It's really sad that they might think certain rules don't apply to them as they do to others just because they have money and more privilege. I think that these people need to realize that having money doesn't make you special or better than anybody else.]]> 2019-04-12 18:36:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351278778 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351280435 I think that it is crazy that the rich people think that they own the world.  It is dumb that they hate on wealthy people who make "new money."  The fact that they have to learn how to eat all fancy like is also dumb.  I'd rather eat dirt than to have to learn how to eat a big mac. ]]> 2019-04-12 18:40:30 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351280435 merrickr https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351280867 I think that the Couch family should not have gotten off as easily as they did at first. I mean the Son of the family stole alcohol from walmart went to a party and drank and then got into an accident and killed 4 people and injured many other while intoxicated and only got 10 years probation. most people would get Jail time for manslaughter, a DUI(Driving under the influence), an MIP (minor in possession), and probably retail fraud for stealing the alcohol ]]> 2019-04-12 18:41:41 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/351280867 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/352019812 I think this is crazy this 16 year old boy got away with killing 4 people, and he only got 10 years of probation and goes to this nice place for his drinking. He shold be in jail. ]]> 2019-04-16 15:48:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/352019812 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/352148551 I think that it is ridicules that people with money think that they can do what ever they please and have no sense of right and wrong making them almost if not more dangerous then people that are locked away in prison for killing people.]]> 2019-04-16 22:31:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/3rdHrVideo/wish/352148551
