Donald Trump’s kids are in the spotlight this week at the RNC. And even though they probably got everything they wanted growing up, being a rich kid has a downside. Here are The Top Disadvantages of Growing Up Rich:
- The constant struggle of having windblown hair from the helicopter blades.
- After your mom dies, an evil stepmother will take over the castle and lock you in a turret.
- Having a dad who doesn’t realize just how orange he is.
- You’re always tripping over the violin left in the foyer by the kid your parents pay to do your math homework.
- Sometimes during high school you can become a victim of Bentley-shaming.
- Your relationship with your parents is built on materialism instead of what it should be: resentment.
- Since your parents can afford it, you’re pressured to attend Harvard even though your I.Q. is suited for ITT Tech.
- Your parents think they can buy your love. Which makes you feel bad about yourself, since it’s true.
- You miss out on the pure joy of finding a $20 bill you totally forgot about in your pocket.
- You get a stupid name like “Thurston” or “Muffy” or “Thurston-Muffy.”
- It takes three and a half days to open your Christmas presents.
- You have the least amount of street cred of anyone in the finance district.
- The Starbucks barista always screws up at least one of your six names.
- Every time you’re surprised, your monocle falls off and splashes champagne all over your tuxedo.
- You never get to fully appreciate poor comedians’ hilarious jokes about government cheese.
- You could end up with a name like “Barron Trump.”
- Somehow inheriting millions of dollars makes you lazy.
