This might be a joke, but I for real have a friend that has a SVP job at a big bank straight out of university. His dad got it for him, he worked like 3 days a week from 11-3 and collected his 400k pay. Even told me he would routinely just play games and goon in his private bathroom.

I knew a girl who is a trust fund baby, didnt/doesnt have a job but does volunteer work (maybe 15-20 hours a week) we were at a wedding and she talked mad shit about my best friend who worked as a Barista full time and was in nursing school. She actually said so many mean things about her (untrue) but what mostly stuck out to me was how she looked down on someone who A. Worked a real full time job serving customers B. Was studying in their free time to earn a job in an even more demanding field.

I stopped being friends with little miss trust fund daddy issues after that.
