What’s a spending habit rich people have that is totally worth it?
As the loyal readers know, I am a big fan of Reddit. When it comes to places on the internet where you can find yourself going down deep rabbit holes, there’s probably no place that beats Reddit.
You simply never know what you’re going to find. There are plenty of crazy stories, history lessons and really cool military content on Reddit.

There’s also plenty of debates and discussions, and that’s what leads us here today.
I was scrolling the r/askreddit subreddit early Thursday morning when I stumbled across and interesting thread title that caught my attention:
AMERICANS SAY THEY’RE BROKE. SO WHY CAN’T THEY STOP SPENDING SO MUCH?
What’s a ‘rich people’ thing you tried once and immediately understood why they do it?
As someone interested in money (aren’t we all, after all?), it was an instant click from me. The results didn’t disappoint at all.
Let’s check out some of the replies before breaking it down:
Now, as the readers also know, I’m a working class guy from rural Wisconsin. You grow up fast when you grow up in those harsh winters. Life doesn’t have many luxuries and you learn to get by with what you have.
Having said that, I have tasted the high-life once or twice, and without question flying first class is the obvious answer to this viral Reddit question.
Are there much more expensive things rich people have access to? Sure, but flying first class is attainable for most people if they want it to be, and it makes the flying experience significantly better.
Not a little bit better.
Much better.
Taking a seat on a first class flight – I’ve always found Delta to be the best – and being immediately greeted with a snack and drink instantly makes the hellish airport experience better.
