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.

Excuse me, but as a 4th generation Californian, anyone who refers to California as "Cali" has just self-defined themselves as a know-nothing, classless person. Ugh! You, TTG, have zero manners or class and are just flat-out mean and rude. Honestly, people with tattoos all over their bodies wear T-shirts that say "Cali." OP may well be some drop-dead gorgeous girl, from old money (who doesn't scream or flaunt it) who is witty and fun to be with, whom you would love to have in your house. OP, just rush and drop Kappa the first day, as I can't imagine what other house would be so fixated on how much money your family has, or be so rude and mean. And OP, welcome to USC, you will have a great experience, just ignore the meanies that live on this site. Fight On!

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!

Do you not read English? I'm asking because they haven't failed at all. I just want to know how they would find that information out.
