Friend of mine used to run a ridiculously exclusive cocktail bar. He always said "The ones in the fancy clothes who look filthy rich are normally reasonably wealthy. The ones in jeans and t-shirts who look normal are normally filthy rich"
我有个朋友以前开一个高级得可笑的鸡尾酒吧。他总是说，“那些穿着花里胡哨的衣服，看上去贼他妈有钱的实际上也就是普通程度的有钱。那些穿着牛仔裤和T恤衫，看上去和普通的人才贼他妈有钱。”

Basically the truly rich people didn't see the place as anything out of the ordinary, so saw no reason to dress up.
因为基本总地来说那些真正有钱的人并不会把这种地方当成什么不平凡的场所，所以他们不觉得有盛装打扮的理由。

I cleaned huge houses for a living, and to me it was the custom built Lego rooms with cabinets -floor to ceiling -full of organized lego sets.
我的工作是清理大豪斯，对我来说最露富的就是一个带陈列柜的订制乐高房间——从天花板到地面——全都是井井有条的乐高套装。

自发性。上一秒钟还在说什么事情或者哪个地方，下一秒钟就立刻这么做了，或者定了票。

One of my roommates child-hood friends has generational wealth, billionaire level. They lived on the Big Island of Hawaii and she would remark that he would just decide to go skiing, in Aspen on a whim, and wonder aloud why everyone else didn't just drop everything and go the next day. The guy was super down to earth but a bit disconnected from the reality of his friends living paycheck to paycheck.
我有一个室友的发小有几代积累下来的财富，亿万富豪的级别。他们住在夏威夷的大岛，她说他可能突然就决定去阿斯彭滑雪场滑雪，然后还不明白为什么其他人不一起放下所有事情第二天就去。那哥们虽然非常接地气，但是和他的那些要靠工资生活的朋友们之间还是有点隔阂。

Yep. As I said in another reply two regulars in bar I worked at said they missed skiing, within an hour they were on the way to the airport. It is so outside my comprehension.
没错，我在另一个回复里讲过，我工作的酒吧里有两个常客，他们有一天说好久没滑雪了，一个小时之内他们就在去机场的路上了。这真的是超越了我的理解。

We got a set of really nice china as a wedding present. Beautiful pattern, gold around the edges, etc. For the first ten years, we used them maybe twice a year, carefully hand washed them and stored them away in a cabinet.
我们结婚的时候收到了一套特别棒的瓷器当做礼物。很好看的花纹，金子包边，等等。在最开始的十年里，我们可能一年也就用两次，小心翼翼地手洗，然后把它储藏在展示柜里。

Now we use them a little more regularly than just Christmas and Easter, and to our parents' initial horror, put them in the dishwasher after dinner. If the gold eventually wears off, who cares? These dishes aren't worth anything to anyone but us.
现在我们使用这套餐具的频率要比只在圣诞和复活节使用更频繁一些，而且让我们的父母感到恐惧的是，我们吃完之后会把它放到洗碗机里。如果金子最后掉了，又有谁在乎呢？这些餐具对于我们之外的人来说又没有任何价值。

If you have fine bone china, using it is good for the plates. I won’t defend putting them in the dishwasher, though. I love the feeling of cleaning the china by hand after a dinner. It’s like the whole evening just slows down and feels special. I usually do the rest of the cleanup the morning after and it’s gratifying to put it all away. Ditto washing and ironing the table linen. It’s like a little kink of mine. Everyone knows to let me clean up after a dinner party. It just feels great to me.
如果你有很好的骨瓷的话，那么使用对盘子是有好处的。尽管我不赞成你把它放到洗碗机里。我喜欢晚餐结束之后用手清洁瓷盘的过程。就好像整个夜晚都变慢了，变得特别了起来。我通常会在第二天早晨把剩下的清洁工作做完，把这些盘子都收拾起来是一件让人愉悦的事情。洗干净并熨烫好桌布也一样。这有点像是我的一个小癖好。所有人都知道让我在晚宴结束之后去打扫。我觉得这感觉很棒。

Edit to add, I’m afraid I only like doing this in my own home, but thanks for all the kind dinner invites. I’m not a generally super tidy person, but there’s something about tidying after a dinner party and judging by the upvotes, this strikes a chord with a bunch of you. I’ve resolved to have dinner on my china tomorrow. Thanks for the inspiration.
编辑一下，我得说我只喜欢在自己家里做这种事，谢谢你们善意的晚宴邀请了。我总地来说不是一个非常干净整洁的人，但是在晚宴结束之后打扫卫生确实有与众不同的地方，而且从点赞的数量来看，或许我也引起了你们很多人的共鸣。我已经决定明天晚上就用自己的瓷器吃饭了。感谢你们的启迪。

Ironically Im poor as hell and eat off fancy China plates and bowls. It was a wedding gift and probably the nicest thing I own apart from my work computer. Really weird though cause I still live in less than 500 square feet and have to budget just to buy me and my husband food each week. Lmao.
讽刺的是我穷的跟狗一样，但是却会用特别华丽的瓷盘子和碗吃饭。那是一套结婚礼物，可能也会除了我工作用的电脑之外我所拥有的最棒的东西了。但也真的很怪，因为我还住在一个不到500平方英尺的房间里，每个星期还得为我和我丈夫的饭钱而做预算。哈哈哈哈

At the time I was driving a 1991 Toyota MR2, a small, clean sports car that was 14 years old but really well kept. I drove it to a Chevy dealership where I said I wanted to test drive a Corvette. They gave me a LONG runaround and a hard time, but after handing over my license for photocopying, getting my picture taken, and a credit card they let me take it for a drive telling me to be back within a few hours after I got the feel for the car. That was the first time I realized the more you pay for a car, the longer they let you drive it.
当时我开的是一辆1991年的丰田MR2。那是一辆小巧干净的跑车，虽然已经开了14年，但保养得真的非常好。我把它开到了雪佛兰的经销商那里，我跟他们说我想试驾一辆科尔维特。他们带我逛了很久，但是在复印完驾照，照了我的照片并还回我的信用卡之后，他们就允许我试驾了，跟我说先开几个小时，等对这个车有感觉了再回来。这是我第一次意识到，你要买的这辆车越贵，他们让你开的时间就会越长。

I drove the Corvette directly to a Porsche dealership where I parked it and asked to drive a 911. We talked for a bit about the car, and after copying my license they handed me the keys and said to have fun, with no stipulation on time.
我直接把这辆科尔维特开到了一个保时捷经销商那里，我停好车，跟他们说我想试驾一辆911.我们聊了几句关于车的问题，在复印完我的驾照之后他们就把钥匙交给了我，让我随便开，没有强调时间。

I took the 911 to a nearby Ferrari dealer and was handed the keys to a Ferrari in minutes. I drove to the Lamborghini dealer down the street (I lived in Miami at the time, these places aren't too far apart) and made a big deal about going from a Ferrari to a Lambo but wanting to keep the Ferrari too - which apparently they didn't like the sound of and I fucked up a rule I didn't really know about because I was trying to seem like I wanted a lot of cars and showoff. I got too proud and blew it. They noticed the Ferrari had dealer plates and told me to get lost.
我于是把911开到了附近的法拉利经销商那里，他们几分钟之内又把法拉利的车钥匙交给了我。于是我开着法拉利又到了同一条街上的兰博基尼经销商（我当时住在迈阿密，这几个经销商离得并不远），跟他们吹了一通自己想要从法拉利换成兰博基尼，但是还想留着法拉利——显然他们不喜欢我这么说，并且我捅破了一个自己并不知道的篓子，因为我想要让自己看起来像是个想买很多车来显摆的人，我装得太大了结果被看穿了。他们发现我的法拉利上是经销商的牌子，于是就让我滚了。

One of my buddies rolled up in his $20k VW Golf and test drove a Bentley and Rolls the other week. I pulled into a Porsche dealer in my 17 year old, 200k mile (and it shows) SUV. Guy invited me back when I had time to test drive and compare a couple different 911s.
我有个朋友上星期开着他2万美元的大众高尔夫，去试驾了一辆宾利。我开着17年车龄，20万英里里程（而且很明显）的SUV停进了一家保时捷经销商。那哥们还邀请我有时间回来接着试驾，比较一下不同的911之间的区别。

I went to this trust fund baby's house once. It wasn't anything impressive, it was more or less a typical middle class ranch home. I knew the guy was a trust fund baby, but he wasn't like mega wealthy or anything. He more or less had enough to live a comfortable middle class lifestyle for the rest of his life without working.
我之前去过这么一个信托基金二代的家里。一点也不显眼。更像是那种典型的中产阶级在农场里的房子。我知道这兄弟是个信托基金二代，但他看起来一点也不富裕。虽然他这辈子就算不用工作，也可以过上舒适的中产阶级生活方式。

When I got there, I was astonished by how bare the house was. There was the bare minimum of furniture in the living room: a small couch and an easy chair, and a 32" TV on a small stand. The kitchen didn't even have a table. It was just a fridge, microwave, oven/stove, and the design was something out of the 1960s.
在我到那之后，我被那间房子的简朴震惊到了。客厅里的家具已经不能再少了：一个小沙发，一个安乐椅，小架子上放着个32寸的电视。厨房里甚至没有餐桌。只有冰箱，微波炉和炉子，而且设计像是上世纪60年代的。

His bedroom had a nice desk with a $5,000 gaming PC with multiple monitors. The kitchen appliances looked way out of place because they were all top of the line in an old-fashioned kitchen. He didn't have bookshelves, end tables, coffee tables, etc--nothing. No trinkets anywhere. Walls were completely bare. He had a woman come by once a week to clean everything, do laundry, etc.
他的卧室里有一个很不错的桌子，有个5000美元的高配电脑，配了好几个显示器。厨房里的家电都很出戏，因为它们都是顶级的家电，却放在一个老掉牙的厨房里。他没有书架，没有茶几，没有咖啡桌，什么都没有，也没有小的装饰物。墙壁空荡荡的。他雇了一个女的，每星期来一趟给他打扫卫生，洗衣服之类的。

I asked my friend who knew him what was up with that, and he pointed out that when you're squeezed for cash, working paycheck to paycheck, the tendency is to hoard. This guy didn't have "stuff" in his house because he didn't feel the need to buy and retain it--if he ever needed something he'd just buy it.
我问了一个认识他的朋友这是怎么回事，他指出当你手头很紧，要靠每个月的工资过活的时候，你的倾向就是囤积。。这家伙的家里没有那些“东西”，因为他不觉得自己需要买什么东西存着——如果需要的话他直接买就好了。

就像是在游戏里开了无限金钱的作弊码一样。你当然可以买各种各样花里胡哨的东西拉显摆，但这会让你觉得没有意义，十分空虚。

That must have been a treat for you to get paid to get to touch and play such amazing instruments, no?
你能拿钱还能触碰并演奏这么优秀的乐器，肯定对你来说是很棒的事情，不是吗？

Yeah, it was fun to play Steinways in peoples houses but I went to music school at an all-Steinway conservatory so I had plenty of experience playing very good instruments.
没错，在别人家里弹斯坦威确实很有意思，但是我读的是音乐学院，里面到处都是斯坦威，所以我也有很多演奏非常好的乐器的经历。

I still prefer the tone of a Bösendorfer though
而且我还是更青睐贝森朵夫的音色。

I used to work in private aviation. The richest man I personally knew from the job owned a fully spec'd up Gulfstream G650ER (roughly USD $80million with its spec package). Other then when he was getting on and off his personal aircraft that he used to fly between his home in Hong Kong and our base in Canada, you would never know he was that wealthy. He'd often show up for his flight in a beat up old minivan that he liked cause he "could fit lots of stuff in the back". Very humble guy, amazing tipper.
我之前在私人航空业工作。我个人通过这份工作认识的最有钱的人，拥有一架独家定制的湾流G650ER（算上定制费差不多8000万美元）。除了他上下自己的私人飞机，往返于香港的家和加拿大的基地之间的时候之外，你永远也不会意识到他有多有钱。他经常会开着一辆破破烂烂的小面包来坐飞机，他很喜欢那辆车，因为“能往后面塞好多东西”。很谦逊的一个人，小费给得特别慷慨。

Now the simply "rich" people, or the ones that had just enough money to fly private were the worst. Rude, entitled, cheap. Took 3 million pictures the whole time they were getting on their chartered (not owned) Learjet (literally less comfortable then premium economy on the airlines) and just overall acted exactly like how rich people are portrayed in the media.
而那些普普通通的“有钱”人，或者那些刚挣到足够的钱可以飞私人航线的人，他们是最糟糕的。无礼，自大，小气。每次登上他们自己租的（还不是买的）里尔喷气客机（其实还没有商业航线的高级经济舱舒服）的时候都要拍三百万张照片，做作的样子和媒体上报道的那些富人一模一样。

I know a wine magnate who drives an old Hyundai because it's comfortable, reliable and he likes to see how high he can get the odometer. He lives fairly modestly, still likes being in the "trenches" so to speak, and the only way you'd know his wealth is that he travels a lot, usually to wine regions.
我认识一个酒业大亨，他总是开着自己的老现代，因为舒服，可靠，而且他喜欢看看自己能把里程表开到多高。他生活得很朴实，仍然喜欢“在沟里生活”，而且你能看出他的财富的唯一方式就是他会四处旅游，通常是去葡萄酒产区。

Good bosses are frustrated that they can't do things they can't do. Literally this is my whole job as infosec management. People bring me things they want to do and I tell them why they shouldn't do it. It's just advice and I'm clear that they can do what they feel the business should, but much like a legal department my job is to tell them what might go wrong and what risks might exist and how they can identify and get rid of those when possible.
好的老板都会因为他们真的不能做那些自己不应该做的事情而感到恼火。作为一名信息安全经理，这就是我的工作内容。人们会把他们想做的事情带到我这边来给我看，然后我告诉他们你为什么不应该做这种事情。这只是我的建议，我也很清楚他们只要觉得企业需要的话，想做什么都可以做，但是和任何法务部门一样，我的工作内容就是告诉他们可能会出什么岔子，会伴随什么样的风险，他们可以的话又该如何识别并避免这些风险。

They get mad as hell at me when I point out that there's a high probability to lose customer data in a risky play, because what they want to hear is "Nah it's safe, make money hand over fist". But when insurance asks for details and the stuff I wouldn't sign off on (and as a result they didn't do it) is the only reason they're getting insurance... all of a sudden they're happy they have me there.
当我指出他们的想整的花活有很高的可能性会损失客户数据的时候他们会气得跟什么似的，因为他们真正想听的是“没事很安全，挣钱要紧”。但是当保险公司询问他们的细节，而那些我没有签字（他们因此没有去做）的事情成为了他们能拿到保险的唯一原因的时候，他们突然就很乐意有我在那里工作了。

One family had their own hanger with several planes and one day when I was working on a plane in the hangar this rich guy calls and says he'll be flying in an hour and so a massive scramble occurs to get the requested plane out on the runway and ready to go, and even fired up. Then the guy drives up in his big ol' 4x4 and two labs jump out of the truck with him and run right up the airstairs like they've done it a thousand times, and 2 minutes later the plane is in the air.

A good friend of mine comes from old money. He is very successful on his own, but he definitely has a different air about him than other well off people I know.

We met as coworkers 20 years ago and we still hang out after going separate ways in our professions. But when I worked with him I noticed he conducts his business at a steady pace...no hint of desperation or urgency. He wants to make s the sale, but if you don't buy, he's OK with that. He doesn't get rattled easily, he stays calm when things are going sideways. It's very nice.
我们20年前以同事的身份互相认识，现在尽管走上了不同的职业道路，仍然会偶尔一起打发时间。但是当我与他共事的时候，我就发现他工作总是很稳当……没有一点绝望或者焦急的感觉。他确实想谈一笔交易，但是如果你不愿意买，那也没关系。他不会轻易急眼，就算事情不对劲他也仍然冷静。这一点很好。
