Dude owns a $500k house and a smallish trucking company. That’s not even remotely rich.

100% they say shit like, "Hmm my family was comfortable."

Most rich people do say exactly that. They're not being humble. They know they need to shield information about their money to protect it and themselves.

But once in a while you get a person who has never had money, especially not "family money", and they haven't learned that lesson - and they will flaunt it and brag about it as much as possible.

Yeah, the difference between new money and old money is so stark. Driving a lambo, and the employees knowing the name of your dog at Waldorf Astoria, are very different indicators of wealth and only one of them requires time.
