How to Pretend You Come From a Rich Family

Pretending that you are from a rich family takes some thought and a little money. Sometimes, you have to pretend to be rich to make money so that you can be rich. Remember that rich people place very little importance on money. Rich people are usually very classy and proper in every situation.

Instructions

1. Make up your story in advance. Practice saying all of the elements of your story until they are easy to remember and sound natural when you say them. If you just make things up as you go along, you may find it difficult to remember the things you said.

2. Buy a few designer items. This can be an outfit and a couple of accessories. Build your wardrobe around these items.

3. Know the terminology of the rich. You should be able to carry on a conversation about haute cuisine, fashion and current events that would affect someone who comes from a rich family.

4. Stay humble. Bragging will make people think twice about your background. Rich people generally accept expensive things as a part of life.

5. Practice etiquette. This is very important because rich families place a lot of importance on being proper in public. Concentrate on learning the different types of silverware, the proper way to speak and proper titles used to address others.

6. Tip generously when you are eating out with friends. Being too stingy is a sure sign of a poser. Your tip should be slightly above average.

7. Support a charity. Buy a ticket to a benefit dinner or ball. Make sure that you are seen by everyone who is there.

Tips & Warnings

• Never pretend that you are from a rich family to deceive someone or to do anything illegal. Pretending that you are from a rich family should be a joke where no one will get hurt or offended.
