When a rich person makes a joke, everyone laughs and usually the rich person looks pleased with themselves - As though they think that their joke was actually funny.<p>You would think that rich people would actively try to surround themselves with people who don't laugh at their jokes and who aren't afraid to attack their character, but in reality, they don't - After a few years, wealthy people genuinely start to think of themselves as being funny and they feel offended when people don't laugh at their jokes. No wonder they feel increasingly isolated.<p>Those who can't fake well enough get pushed away.
