if you've ever been invited to dinner by a wealthy family, you weren't being fed. you were being tested. old money has a quiet system & it begins the moment you sit down with them.
test 1: do you wait for the host to sit first? if you drop into your seat before they do, they already know you weren't raised around wealth.
test 2: where is your napkin? on your lap within the first ten seconds or still folded on the table? they're watching without ever looking.
test 3: the bill arrives, this is the real one. old money never fights over the check, they never offer to split it. whoever invited pays. if you reach for your wallet at their table, you've just answered every question they had about you.
now here's the test most people fail and the one that matters most;
how you treat the waiter, not the host, the waiter. pay solid attention; old money understands something the rest of the world misses. the way you treat the people who serve you is who you really are when no one important is watching, that dinner wasn't dinner, it was an interview. these are rules they'll never teach you in school
share with someone who needs to see it before their next dinner. 👍
RULES FOR MEN.
Never touch a married woman.
Never flirt at work.
Never mess with your boy’s ex.
Never entertain single moms.
Never look twice at your brother’s girl.
Never chase older women.
Never sleep with someone you don’t trust.
One night can ruin your future.
Discipline > Desire.
get a haircut every 2 weeks to stay sharp, wait 5 secs before answering the phone to control the rhythm, always arrive 15 mins early, stay away from free lunches, never talk about people who aren't in the room and when anger rises, wait 10 mins before reacting. these habits may look rigid but they're the hidden discipline of the elite.
Someone is wondering why City, not Arsenal are top when they both have the same number of points.
The Premier League uses five tiebreakers to separate clubs that finish level on points. Most fans know the first one. Almost nobody knows the last three. And right now, with five games left in the 2025-26 season, every single one of them matters.
According to Section C of the Premier League Handbook 2025-26, under the heading Determination of League Table Placings, when two or more clubs finish level on points the following criteria are applied in this exact order.
First, goal difference across all 38 league games.
Second, total goals scored across the season.
Third, head-to-head points between the tied clubs specifically.
Fourth, away goals scored in those head-to-head matches. Fifth, and only if all four criteria above have failed to separate the clubs and the position is material to the title, European qualification or relegation, a one-off playoff at a neutral ground determined by the Premier League Board.
City and Arsenal currently lead the Premier League with 70 points. Both clubs have won 70 points with five games remaining and the title would be decided entirely by earlier mentioned tiebreakers.
The title has been decided by goal difference exactly once in Premier League history. In 2011-12, Manchester City and Manchester United both finished on 89 points. City had +64. United were on +56. Aguero's 94th-minute winner against QPR is the reason most people know that rule exists.
This season, the margin is one goal. Every match between now and 24 May counts.
Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a beautiful run-in on our hands

Hear me out, brothers
1. Stay away from road rage. Ignore that idiot driver on the road.
2. Pay attention to your instinct; when it feels like “don't go” please don't go.
3. Let your kids share a bedroom. Don't let them sleep individually. Males have their bedroom likewise for the females.
4. Play PlayStation with your kids.
