He comes in and big smile as he thought he was cool and be a show off. So he steps in the line, and first thing comes out of his mouth. Yes it is mine, and it cost more what you will make in your life time speech. I wanted to throat punch that kid right their on the spot. This isnt the first time i ran into some spoon fed kiddies, you see them all over town. Non of them really do work, nor care to work. But something needs to be address to them, as they are no better than the homeless people.

So any body experience smart arse kids that makes you want to put them in their place? And dont give me that im jealous speech, as im not. I like to earn my living and will teach my son to do the same. Nothing is given free, its earned.. Unless your family is loaded. Is like they want to look down on us working people and laugh, when they are the ones that really cant survive on a hiking trip without crying for help.


Mods, please feel free to move this to another forum, as i wasnt for sure to post.

1) You have let a few bad experiences allow you to cast a wide net as if all children born into wealthy families are these evil good for nothing brats who won't contribute anything to society. Yes, there are some truly awful ones like the one that came into your store and it would be nice to see him get punched in his face after making such a rude comment. However, I've met more nice humble ones than those similar to your recent experience. It would be like getting robbed by a young street kid and then saying anyone born into poverty is a menace to society who only is willing to rob, steal and kill for money!

2) A homeless person lives off government and the goodness of people. A rich kid buying expensive things is contributing to the economy and paying tax dollars. I could care less what a person is buying with their money or family's money as long as it isn't "dirty" money. Our country more than ever needs the tax revenue!

Next time some kid comes around like this crack a joke at their expense, "and here i thought only 80 year olds who need to take viagra to get an erection drove rolls." There are just so many things you could throw to a person who is obviously super insecure with themselves. "You could drive up with a new car every day, but it isn't going to stop girls from laughing at your micro-penis, sadly no amount of money can fix that" The easiest way to troll a troll is to laugh at them and not get angry. No matter what he says to you, no matter how personal or offensive, just zone it out and when he is done talking, just laugh and say "hahaha I've never seen someone so insecure before, ever! I don't mean to be rude, but thanks for the laugh" Never show anger, never show sadness, just make it seem like the nastier they get the more funny/pathetic you find them. Hit them where it hurts, genitals, appearence, daddy issues, mommy issues, them giving you money because even your own parents can't stand looking at the crap they popped out etc. If you can get them mad, while seeming like you are having a great time mission accomplished.

As previously mentioned, something isn't adding up correctly. Most younger kids aren't going to want a Rolls in the first place and depending on the Rolls, he may not have spent much on it. Used ones are pretty cheap sometimes. Maybe it was given to him, maybe he stole it, maybe he just won a lottery, who knows. But no matter the actual value (to him, anyway) of the car and how he acquired it (if it was his) there had to be a world of hurt underneath all the bravura in order for him to act that way.

There are a lot of odd dynamics among the really rich families, he may have been caught in one of those types.
