    In the USA that would be the difference between old money and new money. Old money will talk about going away for vacation but won’t go into details because flaunting your money is seen as incredibly tacky. A key part of old school etiquette is to not make others in your company feel less than you so they might say they went away but they don’t give details as to how long (all summer) or where (a second home also worth millions).

    New money will tell you they went to a $10k a night place in a super exclusive joint and mention all the celebrities they saw because they want you to know they “made it”.
