It saddens me. A lot.

M: "Hey, tell me, what do you think is the best thing about being rich?"

W: "I don't know."

M: "Being able to say you don't have any money. Like if I suggested to a school friend we do something, she could say, 'Sorry, I don't have any money', which is something I could never say, if the situation was reversed. If I said 'I don't have any money', it would really mean 'I don't have any money'. It's sad. Like, if a pretty girl says 'I look terrible today, I don't want to go out,' that's OK, but if an ugly girl says the same thing people laugh at her. That's what the world was like for me"

and for me.
