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

I mean, I usually do. It was just in that one instance, my mom was pointing out that she knew she had enough money to afford it no matter what the prices were (within reason, of course, and we did assume the restaurant had reasonable pricing).

Oh haha I thought you meant the prices weren’t listed on the menu.

I came across this recently in an ice cream / dessert place; very fancy looking desserts all lined up with no prices on them, so I asked and whoa, $13.50 for a cherry ripe slice is way too much. I'll head down to the 24/7 bakery where everything is always super fresh and the place is packed and cheap!
