what would u think of me (rich international student)

BMWs are parvenu cars while Macs are now owned by pretty much everyone. At least make an effort.

Oh that's wonderful ! yeah its true about karachi, it is where all the gangsta stuff is but that's the other part of the country from where i live.
I hope i would find people who would be good friends as now i am seeing some like those here. It has raised my hopes of really settling in there.

Yep, the transition is always difficult. There's always a sense of 'racism' from our own people, but like everywhere else you stand your ground and gain your respect.

from ur comment i get it a bit. buying advance gadgets and an over priced car itself gives an impression that we r trying to be pretentious right?
and talking about buying me a house, i dun wanna tell anything further that my father wished me to buy but i turned it down, otherwise people would start hating me further as already m gettin a feeling

I'd say just get a less fancy car and don't let them buy you a flat until after first year, and when they do, make it a 2 or 3 bed flat and rent out the empty rooms to other students. I know of a few people like that and while I'd certainly see them as coming from a wealthier background I wouldn't seem them as particularly spoilt.

the vast majority of people won't care if you're Pakistani, British, wealthy or poor. They will treat you depending on how you treat them. On a side note I couldn't agree more with Sheepish153 on the charity thing.

Really? How is the discrimination scene like in the unis? I would recommend an unbiased advice and not to just give me hope.

I go to a state school with a massive boarding house, there are stacks of kids like you and they all get treated well. I assume universities will be the same

I find it difficult to believe by this point in the thread no one knows that OP is a troll.

Hello, I am an international student and am holding an offer from kings.
Before moving to UK this Sep, I wanted to know what pschy do UK students have for us and found it quite funny when I read the threads like what do rich international students think of us and they are spoiled etc.
Actually why I made this thread is so I can know why do u actually think we are spoiled or we are different from you when you yourself actually have a huge upper hand (fluent English) . I, before reading threads like this, thought that may be students would think down on me as I don't belong to their culture and dun know how the things go on there (though have visited UK many times as u would expect from a rich int student ;-) ) .
So to tell u about myself , yes I am one of those students who has latest macs, smartphones and my parents will buy me a flat and a BMW when I move there though in no way I think I will be bragging about it or think m better than u people and personally am a very down to earth person, this is the reason m leaving all this wealth n moving over there but still all these come with me where ever I'll move.
Thanks for reading this essay and please share Ur thoughts on why u think students with lots of moneyare not like u.

From what I've observed, in the UK (generalizations don't apply to everyone, but generally speaking) people are very sensitive about issues like class and social status, and easily get annoyed at the sight of a rich person, especially so if they're a foreigner. They will find public displays of wealth, e.g. expensive shopping, almost offensive.

In real life, you will most likely be faced with disguised envy and an exaggerated overly polite attitude.

Most of the replies, very hostile, directed at the OP confirm what I say.

It's all good but can you please start spelling words out? Your abbreviations hurts my eyes. Plus, not writing out the words makes you seem less intelligent and immature.
