1865: Class, Privilege and How the Ultra-Wealthy Wield Status

<p>We are diving deep into wealth, class, and privilege with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Have-More-Sanibel/dp/196179540X/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sanibel</a>, author of the novel&nbsp;<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Have-More-Sanibel/dp/196179540X" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>To Have and Have More</em></a>&nbsp;and an expert on the subtle—and not-so-subtle—ways the ultra-wealthy wield their status. If you’ve ever been curious about the behaviors and dynamics that go beyond “quiet luxury” or the “nepo baby” conversation, you’ll enjoy this conversation. </p><br><p>Sanibel breaks down concepts like stealth privilege, coattail riders, and what she calls the rich person’s “cheat code.” We’ll also unpack the history of our cultural obsession with wealth in the U.S., why some believe wealth is a poison to our culture and explore why being “too rich” might just make you less empathetic.</p><br><p>More about Sanibel: She is a writer based in NYC.
