how is wealth determined?

by: pnm   

You can live a life that's more modest in appearance even though your parents may be considerably wealthy. I just don't understand how sororities determine who is and who isn't -- maybe Instagram and all the people who like to flaunt their new money lend some insight. Or someone's zip code...and even so...what if you don't include your address? Suppose your parents have taken measures to hide their information from getting out there on a google search? What if some of the wealth is inherited? Y'all have no way of knowing these things for certain, and to judge a pnm based on that seems awfully short-sighted and arriviste. Maybe it's very different in California, but where I'm from, people are anything but showy and keep it to themselves.

Sororities and Frats have access to your financial information via any documents sent to the school.

"this TTG girl" is correct. TTG girl clearly is either nouveau riche or some middle class or lower echelon (as people with class don't behave as she does)-- in any event, she is definitely insecure... and rude. Anyway, go OP!

I agree with TTG. OP doesn't have a chance at the top tier.

Because TTG, and others apparently, don't realize that there's a HUGE difference between old money and the nouveau riche. TTG's mantra seems to be that one needs to flaunt one's money. OP said that is not her family's style. I totally get this, as this is the way my family is, too. I agree that no one should care, but TTG seems to be absolutely obssesed on the point that if you don't flaunt your $, you're nothing. Candidly, TTG's posts are such consistently nasty/anti-Panhellenic/shallow/destructive downers ("if you 'settle,' you'll just be bitter for 4 years, etc) that while I'm generally a nice person, I can't wait for karma to catch up with her. TTG is a MEAN person. That said, I'm a so-called "top tier" girl too. Everyone should make an effort to just be nice/compassionate and focus on their classes, finding a good job and be happy and enjoy their time at USC!
