Money Reveals What Kind of Friend You Are (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is a scene in season two of Friends I think about often. Rachel, Phoebe, and Joey, who have low-paying jobs, decide to have a serious conversation with their more wealthy friends —Ross, Monica, and Chandler—about struggling to pay for expensive group dinners and concert tickets.

After exchanging pleasantries at the bar, he said, “You look very nice today.” I said thanks and turned my back to him to continue speaking to my friend who was next to me, listening in on our conversation. “What are you doing?
