24 People Shared The Ridiculous Ways They Found Out Their Friends Were Really, Really, Really Rich

One of my favorite childhood movies ever is Richie Rich — starring Macaulay Culkin — because it taught me at a young age that money isn't everything.

Though it was clear that Richie had some serious bank, his friends didn't fully grasp just how wealthy he was until they discovered his personal in-home, fast-food restaurant, which now, looking back, was completely ridiculous. I mean, who would need that in their house?

So when Twitter user @Tony_of_lagos asked, "What is the strangest way you found out that your friend was wealthy?" I was mentally preparing myself to eyeroll at the obliviousness of the upper class. But the responses ranged from some funny movie references to real-life scenarios that were even more shocking than I predicted. So let's get into the best replies:
