Although there's no clear definition of "wealthy," some people certainly grew up with more money others — and many of them didn't even realize it.

Thousands of people on Reddit responded to the question, "People who grew up wealthy and were "spoiled," what was something you didn’t realize not everyone had/did?"

Many of those who responded had no clue they were living in a privileged bubble until later in life. 

From jetting off to exotic locales in a private plane several times a year to having live-in maids clean and cook for them, here are 15 things that people who grew up wealthy initially had no idea everyone didn't do.

1. Eat at restaurants all the time

"It was only until later in life that I realized going out to restaurants, daily, isn't typical. I just figured that is how people normally ate. I thought home-cooked meals were the special ones." - squeeeeenis



2. Have live-in maids

"House servants. Seriously, they do all your chores and EVERYTHING around the house. A friend of mine had a maid who lived with them as a full-time job and had a room in their pool house." - UnexpectedRanting



3. Have vacation homes

"I thought everyone had a vacation home somewhere, and had a maid who cleaned the house. I came home from college my first year and looked around my neighborhood and saw it through different eyes. Suddenly I realized how big the houses were, and how most had three-car garages. That just felt normal to me until I went to school with people who didn't have those things." - Seachica
