I know a multi-millionaire that drives a white Kangoo.

But like many of these stories, I've missed out the part where he also drives an A8, and an C-class coupe, and a Dodge something or other people carrier that he keeps at his house in the states, so that when all his mates fly out, they can get their clubs in the back and go golfing.
He can't have that many mates, we have to rent two of those things when we go on our bi-annual trip to Florida hehe

Are these posts ironic cringe to make us cringe, self deprecating cringe inducing cringe or plain old cringe from withing the cringe thread?

I'm confused and I've said cringe too many times in my head and it's started to sound weird.

Cringe-caption. fk me, that's twice I've posted cringeworthy stuff on one page. I'm back over to that bodybuilder cringe thread for another painful dose of their cringe.

that thread is truly arsewrenchingly dreadful. All the classic PH tropes. If I read one more fking post about someone who knows a millionaire who dresses like a tramp and drives a beaten up old banger I'm going to shoot myself. The bks on this place never seems to die.
I have a customer who is a multi millionaire and he dresses in old rags and drives a 15 year old landie.
Our very own queen has a fondness for Barbour jackets and wellies and I've heard she's not short of a bob or two...
I only posted for Krunchkins benefit, he can now go away and quietly shoot himself.
Can I play too... I don't know any billionaires, but Ingvar Kamprad supposedly drives around in a Volvo 240... his net worth.... $28 Billion.

He might have something to do with Ikea.

Nope, he has the original Allen Key on a permanent retainer living in a Granny Annex.

On hand and ready to assemble, day or night.

The big show-off.

Financed up to her eyeballs-in fact I saw her coming out of Cash Convertors the other day. Makes Kerry Katona look like George Soros.

You are clearly suffering from Munchausen's Cringe by Proxy.

Oh that's nothing. I know a billionaire that rides around on an albino Kangaroo because the pouch is a convenient place to store his swan's testicles sandwiches which, by the way, he makes using stale Warbies to keep him in touch with his Northern working class roots. He doesn't wear clothes as living in his freezing cold country pile has resulted in him actually developing body hair as lush and warm as an Angora rabbit.

The above makes me considerably more in touch with the lifestyles of the super rich than you.

I am a multi billionaire.
I only work because I love getting up at 6:30 AM, I drive cheap cars by choice, and wear cheap clothing for the same reason. Although I could afford a McMansion and a chateau in France, I rent a house so as not to appear posh.
Being fabulously wealthy, I never carry much cash, fo fear of being robbed.

In fact, no-one who knows me would ever guess that I have any money at all.

This one stood out for me:

--
Same as my car.

Sleek black bodywork
Great rear end
Purrs when turned on.
Responsive to the touch
Looks good topless
Dual airbags
Covered in Black leather
Expensive to maintain
Enjoys being taken for a ride.
