The size of her bank balance is not the reason why I don't have sympathy for her - anyway that isn't snobbery. Snobbery is behaving like your money has bought you the right to look down on those without money, which appears to be what Madonna is doing. Like suddenly not allowing people to walk across her land, as they've done for centuries. That kind of thing is why I have no sympathy for her current problems.

As for being more sympathetic in general than me, well what a thing to say I'm just a bit more discerning about spreading my sympathy.
