wealth ignorance

People who were once not so wealthy that became wealthy and are ignorant to fact that their wealth changes their personality and the way they treat their friends/family.

Use their wealth to have something to talk about to friends/family who do not. Ignorant to the fact that they are sounding selfish. Also ignorant to friends/family who they see need help but do not offer. Just talk about having to spend money on selfish needs. Then if they are asked for help and they do, they treat the ones they help with no respect. Have complete wealth ignorance.

ignorance

A characteristic of the majority of Americans. People who enclose themselves into a small glass jar, made up by their own pseudo culture and oversimplified (often erroneous) view of the world, and then assume they are superior to everyone else. (Characteristic viewed as amusing by most Europeans).

"Those Americans are so full of ignorance!"
"Why?"
"Probably because their society does not have a serious cultural background..."
