Hire a hit man.

BTW, most people who are real friends, like to see their friends do well. Sounds like you don't want them to come up in life, so you can't feel superior like you do now.

No where in my posts did I even remotely say anything that insinuates such a thing. It's the fact that she talks down to me without cause, as I've repeatedly stated. I also noted that he is making twice the money he was thanks to a job I got him, so you can keep your non sense to yourself, it doesn't apply here. Try to follow along now...

Again, if they were actually doing twice as good as me, I'd accept it. It's the fact that his wife tries to talk to me as if I'm below her and that she's better than me, and of course he sits there and says nothing, knowing the opposite is true.

Forget it, I forgot the majority of people in the world are at the lower incomes and would attack me because the majority of you ARE them. lol

Have a nice day fellas.

It's funny, you seem jealous. I figured I'd get these kind of responses from the masses. I guess you don't get it either. There is a social status whether you like it or not. It's only those who don't have it that refuse to accept it.
Why are you even on here asking the question?

I'm puzzled as to why you give a rip what these people think of you, whether they "copy" you or not. If this lady is as condescending as you say she is, tell her you don't appreciate her tone with you, and if she doesn't start respecting you more, you are done with the relationship. This is what a mature adult does. Again, who the heck gives a crap? Why do you waste time on people who don't respect you?

So you are on here complaining about a woman who is in a pissing contest with you, then you come on here and ask us if you should return the pissing contest. This makes you no better than her, and I don't give a crap that you made six figures.

There are going to be naysayers and people who think they are better than you all around. Surprised you didn't learn that in your 20's, since you are such a smart person.

Sounds like you both need an attitude fix.

And no, I'm not jealous, but you'll likely think I am.

You sound like a 7th-grader.

Seriously, go back and read your post and look at how insecure you sound.

Are you drinking when you post? Try reading your first post.

"his wife has quite the mouth on her" AND " since he started copying everything about me a few years ago until I asked him to stop"

Your words not mine.

I am sad he calls this guy his friend and then does not share his "secret" for success.

You're not much of a friend, either.

Frankly, when I have had a friend who had a spouse or significant other that was obnoxious and I couldn't take it any more, I just told them. And you know what? 9 times out of 10, they fixed it.

The way this girl talks to me just irks me. I make six figures and have been since my mid twenties, and have two houses paid off, and am buying a third house. They just got their first apartment in their mid thirties. I make more than both of them combined and then some. Heck, I pay more in taxes that either of them makes. For some reason I just want to shut her up. She really just doesn't know who she is talking to.

On the other hand, I don't want them to start copying me career wise or real estate investment wise (if they ever get better jobs), since he started copying everything about me a few years ago until I asked him to stop. If I tell them what I'm doing, they might start copying me. So should I just find a way to drop my income into conversation? Or hint that I make a lot of money by talking about my paid off houses and third home purchase? Or just let it go and quietly laugh and fume at the same time internally?
Maybe she does. Money isn't the be all end all and just because you have more doesn't make you better, just richer. Maybe she doesn't care two bits about your money or your 'status' and she just doesn't like you.

You may have money but you do not have the class. Nobody should EVER think that they are better or have a right to talk to someone a certain way or not talk to someone a certain way based on how much money they have. And I am saying this is someone who more than likely has more money than you do.

Who cares? Money is not what respect should be based on. Grow up.
