maybe it's because they're jealous?

LOL Just because you wear armani, BIG deal... The kids in the neighborhood I am in drive Lexuses in high school and have their own condos costing half a million by the time they go to college. I am not rich. I don't care for children of yuppies.

They're making fun of you because you dress like a poof. And because rich people tend to be mean bitchy A-holes.

Probably out of jealousy. How well do you wear your richness? You obviously are not humble about it. If you were they would not know. The Fox and the Grapes from Aesop http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fox_and_the_Grapes

Most people who think others hate them for a reason they can't control are usually wrong. Chances are, the people don't like you because of your personality. No one is really going to hate you so bad that they'd damage your property just because you're rich. Obviously they don't like you. Maybe it's the fact that you show off how rich you are. Why are you wearing $200 Ray-Bans to school/practice anyway? I know I hate a show off. Sounds like you kinda are one.

The short answer is because of judgment and comparison. If you take this ability out of people then how could they judge what's good or bad for them. If you have something other people want, then this ability to compare causes them to either want to get it themselves (if they're a go-getter) or be lazy and be envious of what you have. Envy turns to jealousy when an attempt to harm expresses itself. Envy is ok because it lets us know what we want. Jealousy is negative because it's sole purpose is to harm someone, like smashing your Ray-Bans. The short answer is jealousy, and that can only come about because of judgment and comparison.

Rich people tend to act like snobs. If you are wearing brand name everything, and making your identity all about the brands, and you are swimming and playing soccer amongst a community of people in a lower socio-economic class, it may feel to them as though you are sticking it to them. Perhaps it is not the money that offends them, it is the snobbish behavior. Kids who grow up rich tend to become adults who have never developed a sense of empathy because they are used to having everything handed to them, and never really have to work. They can feel a sense of entitlement, and that Mommy and Daddy can bail them out no matter what they do, or how badly they screw up. Maybe you should take a nice look in the mirror and try to scale the brand-snobbishness down a few notches. See if it is the money who repulses them all, or the person.

Dude preps are just annoying, you guys wear the same thing everyday. Either an A&F, A&E, or Hollister cloths. It gets old, wear different styles like hot topic, pac sun, wet seal, buckle, vans, just go for the skater look. Trust me us girls LOVE skater guys. Grow out your hair and wear a cool hat. The prep look is getting old. Peace.
