Quote[/b] ]I add that in France, people who have a lot of money do not show it. It's a principle of good manners.
That is one good thing we Americans could learn from the French. Here, many of the nouveau riche (sp?) flaunt their wealth in a crude and unbecoming manner. It seems that they want to show the whole world that they have it made. They are also the ones who get robbed the most. There are exceptions; Bill Gates for example. To look at him, you would not suspect that he is the richest man in the world.
