There's a lot of news articles about it. It is a different mind set.

Very nice article man! Different people really have different mind sets.

It's not all about status symbols when you have loads of cash. It basically comes down on how you make use of it. You could either be flashy as hell and live in a million-dollar home with flashy cars or you could be just like the guys in the article, humble and living in a condo or apartment. The guys in the article basically invest their wealth into social causes and start-up ventures and not into expensive/extravagant things. Their way of being status symbols is by contributing to society by helping those in need.

OP,
Just ignore the civic. It would be more painful if you tried racing him and get pulled over by the police for reckless driving. Give them time to mature. They'll learn their lesson one day...
