Above and beyond how to not be jealous, it might be worth considering how to also be a good friend. I imagine everybody this guy knows now has had a similar reaction and he may not have many real friends left (maybe I'm wrong) who can treat him the way they did before the money. Some people let wealth become their whole identity though, so if that's what he's doing it can be hard to connect.

He definitely has not let wealth or success become his identity. I didn't know that he was so wealthy until recently but it happened years ago and it didn't change our relationship in any noticeable way. It's good to remember to be a friend.

That's awesome. Says a lot about your friend. Don't let this tidbit of knowledge you earned ruin your relationship, absolutely not worth it.

I doubt too many people would cut off a centimillionaire from their life.
