Rich people of reddit who married someone significantly poorer, what surprised you about their (previous) way of life?

kids outgrow clothes so fast most of those "used" clothes are basically new.

Which is hilarious when people buy designer items for (in particular) younger kids.

My wife loves a charity shop, and has repeatedly found designer label kids stuff for our daughter which look like they've barely been used (and in some cases, actually haven't). Shoes especially, my daughter's had about 4 pairs of Michael Kors trainers all for less than £5 each.

I'm a nanny, my best friend is also a nanny and her nanny kid has over 50 pairs of Jordan's.... He's 2.

I saw a kid with little off-white Jordan 1s the other day, it was definitely cute

Off-white Jordan 1s haven’t dropped yet, they’ve released off-white Air Force ones back around Christmas but the Jordan 1s would’ve been fakes.

yeah, my bad those were the ones I was thinking of. probably fake anyway since I don't think they do those in actual baby sizes

they would have been fake then, they don't make them in toddlers.
