Rich, Entitled, And Narcissistic
Socioeconomic Status Is A Contributing Factor To Narcissism
Narcissists are self-centered people who take the view that they are far more important than the people around them. They promote themselves to the exclusion of others and take other people's
successes as competition to their own. They also tend to suck the life out of groups, because they steal the limelight and push their own agenda at the expense of others.
Because of these negative influences of narcissism on relationships and in the workplace, it is valuable to understand where this collection of traits comes from. An interesting paper in the
January,2014 issue of Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin by Paul Piff explores the relationship between narcissism and wealth.
He argues that great wealth and higher levels of social class can lead people to have a greater sense of entitlement and that sense can lead to narcissism.

Alan's Low Self Esteem FORCES Him To Reply, Even When There's NOTHING To Reply TO
This Is Why Alan Can't Admit He's Wrong
They say it takes a big person to admit their mistakes, but for Alan, saying he's wrong feels impossible.
But why does Alan do it? We've asked psychologist Dr. Tim Sharp, chief happiness officer at The Happiness Institute, to explain:
They think being wrong means they're unworthy - Yup... Low-Self-Esteem
For Alan, conceding that he's fallible can evoke a deep psychological anxiety regarding "the risks or the consequences associated with loss or failure," says Sharp.
"I think the reason Alan can't apologize isn't actually because he doesn't like to be wrong, but because it's seen as an inherent character fault," he explains.
Sharp says that for non-apologists, the irrational need to always be "perfect" rules their ego and they feel their screw-ups are unforgivable.
"The difficulty in admitting failure largely comes from the unrealistic expectation that 'I should get it right all the time, or not even try or make it seem as if I am'" he says.

You probably spend a small amount of time feeling sorry for Alan, but elated when this undeserved narcissist starts spouting his hate and bile.
Have you ever wondered how to make a Alan, the narcissist, miserable and what makes him afraid or triggered? (maybe for a second... then it's gone)
Just for the record, trying to make Alan, the narcissist, miserable might have its place for a short period of time, but I don't recommend focusing on it for too long as this will inevitably get old.
But, if you need a quik fix, let's get into the top things all narcissists, like Alan, hate.
How to Make Alan, the narcissist, Miserable
Lack Of Acknowledgment: (filter on ignore)
Even though he KNOWS he's being ignored, he continues to reply, as if ANYONE really cares, other than himself. THAT is narcissism.
It's no secret that most narcissists, like Alan, revel in admiration and validation (except for 'closet narcissists', like Alan). Alan depends on constant approval to maintain his sense of intrinsic
worth. To achieve this goal, he TRIES to absorb (or steal) the energy of other people.
"Prove it."
Do you ever wonder why narcissists, like Alan, don't seem to mind the negative attention? It's because negative attention also fuels his narcissistic fire.
ANY attention, even NEGATIVE attention, IS STILL ATTENTION, and any form of attention gives him the incentive to keep going. It gives him the motivation to keep proving himself (by making others
prove THEMSELVES.
In fact, he often likes negative attention better, because if you're still amused by his emotional crimes, he can try to exploit this.
Therefore, a lack of acknowledgment is the real threat. To Alan, the narcissist, indifference is even more of an issue than hatred. Alan's rather you have a negative opinion than have no opinion at
all.
