Indeed. It's actually rather bizarre.
I can't really think of any particular point in the last century where being that brazen and insulting while flaunting your wealth has ever been considered as a positive. Certainly not by the general public anyway.
I think the last Gilded Age is probably the last time, really…
Or arguably literal Weimar Germany, lol…
But since the 1929 Wall Street crash..? Basically not at all.
At least, outside Hollywood and maybe a few broadcast sitcoms…
