I've done work for some rich people and it's the laid back ones that keep you coming back. I worked in IT and somehow this couple got my name and called me for some work. I was young and needed money so i went. They ended up paying well beyond the asking rate of the job I did so when they called again, I went back. This went on for years and they ended up being a nice bonus check a few times a year. Literally install a new router for them, an hour of work tops, $500 in my pocket.I'd always tell them it was too much but they'd shove it into my pocket. I like to think they were the good guys.
I'm lucky enough to have one of those jobs where i do what i love, and from time time my enthusiasm and love for this business saves people a lot of time on research. I just consider it part of the job, but people appreciate it and i get pretty nice tips. $20 bills usually, sometimes a $50 or $100, sometimes it's expensive bottles of alcohol, tickets, shit like that. Every now and then it's products they sell that sometimes show up at the office with my name on them...
It's always the guys who are richer than i'll ever be, but don't act like it.
The ones you know are rich, just by their attitude... they almost never tip and they never remember anyone. They usually expect free shit despite giving them a discount upfront for the volume.
