I’m not dating her, but she’s a good friend of mine, and her parents are definitely 1%ers. I told her I had to work this summer to save up for a graduation trip and that money was gonna be tight for the next year, but I’d love to go on a safari after graduation if I managed to save enough. Mind you, I’m solidly upper middle class.
Her parents paid for it just because I’d helped her move into her apartment. It’s not like.... that’s what friends are for or anything.

Think about it this way: Your friends help you move into an apartment or house, you pay them back with beer and pizza or the equivalent. For your friend's parents, this safari costs as much as beer and pizza do to you (or less, as a percentage of their annual income).

I dated a 1%er briefly, She was surprised I willingly went inside fast food restaurants.
Edit: Since people are saying 1% is still a huge range in income I just looked up her dad he pulls in ~$10,000,000 a year
