In America, if you are not interested in money, then yes that is VERY disturbing. You know when I worked on wall street as a young man. I had to fake it loving money. My behaviors got to the point, I would have smell money and kiss it to try to convince people I loved it as much as they do.
They would buy fancy cars (yes more than one) talk about their houses they have or want. My interest in keeping the same car disturbed them. and once I said I dont need expensive stuff. I think they caught on after that I was not one of them

Yes that would be a bit of a give away; and they despise people who don't think as they do, don't they!
So you don't want to join them in their congenital drive to grab it all for themselves? What a sad, dysfunctional, useless piece of humanity you must be!!!
