Ive worked at both the big auction houses (you know, S and C) and a lot of my co-workers were old money, known names like Rockefellers and duPonts and the like. Anyway, apart from these old family names, youd NEVER know they had any money but I also loved that I used to run into these colleagues on the subway or the bus which IMHO was really endearing. The only time they took cars was to get to the airport.
I dont think most people get that this is how they really live.
