Or plenty of well of people just don't care (and lack a "pedigree"). But your point is correct.

My GF had a visitor from Hollywood during the Super Bowl week end. Said friend was shocked that nobody had bodyguards or drove those fancy looking cars like they have in Hollywood. She was shocked when I introduced her to a couple of billionaires at the sports bar during the game: they were wearing basically the same clothes as everybody else.

(I was shocked that they were there too -- I would have no interest in a sports bar during the Super Bowl except for the entertainment of said house guest).
