In cities like Atherton and Woodside if you earn $150k you're the person a few steps down and just a low income computer guy! Consider that next time you write that sort of comment - there's always a bigger fish.

Treat others how you'd like to be treated. I'd rather live next to a decent guy who's a truck driver than a rich idiot. I'd also hate to live in a bubble. Look at London - you have places like Camden with multi-million pound town houses opposite council estates.



This wasn't about me, I wasn't the one I described. And I totally understand why people in Atherton wouldn't want people like me as their neighbor. I'm not goofy enough to think we'd be best buds if only given the chance.
