What's a rich person mannerism/stereotype do you enjoy and or like to imitate?

fresh one
When they offhand say just to replace something variably super pricy with the spare you keep or have the butler fetch you a new one
Or like Peter did on Family Guy when he messes up writing his contact on a gun, balls it up like its made of paper and trashes it asking for a fresh handgun to do it correctly
I have my own mannerisms because I have my own personality. I don't need to copy nobody else's, rich or poor.

As I’ve started growing my wealth I’m able to buy quality things that last, and it’s led to the bizarre feeling that on black friday, I don’t need any of the door buster deals. You’ve probably heard of the Vimes boot theory of wealth, and I’ve seen it play out over time. I even re-sole good boots now.
I'd say it's more of a HENRY thing (high earning, not rich yet), but I very much agree.
On the other side, I can't name any rich person mannerism I'd call remotely positive. Maybe some Old Money humbleness, but that's also pretty rare.
Not even wealthy but I do and feel the same way and it blows my mind how much use you get out of stuff when you buy quality stuff (whenever possible or able) and don't throw it when you're angry at life lol
For perspective of others, I will spend $200 on quality shoes, $100 on a good belt, $400 on a kitchen appliance. I tend to shop a bit, both for quality and then price. It helps that the kids are older and don’t break as much any more.
Repairing what you have and passing them down as heirlooms.
I don't like to copy people, nor do I think all rich people are the same just by virtue of having money.

Prefer some (modern|current day) tech design language æsthetics (example : what Teenage Engineering makes) , some older design languages peops like to hype up for nostalgia reasons overrated IMHO (y2k "blobject" style tech's specially sore spot for me bcus personal negative associations with that æsthetic)
That said , TE's overpriced desk's profoundly stupid of them to ever make . Don't forget rabbit r1 disaster
Not really working and just commenting on stuff they have no expertise in. I'm as skilled at it as tbey are, just not listened to as much :)
