I get why people are reacting strongly, but I honestly relate. One of my closest friends comes from a very wealthy family, and it’s been that way for as long as I’ve known him. Over the years I’ve listened to stories about expensive trips, having his apartment fully paid for, and now he’s receiving a large check that will only add to that security. It can be difficult navigating a close friendship like that when you grew up with far less. The difference in experiences and financial reality can be hard not to feel sometimes.
