That's Wyoming in a nutshell.

"Do you know how much money I have?"

"Yeah, but we still don't like you, and saying that makes us like you less."

It's a really weird mix of respect for wealth/property (when you're a good neighbor) and disrespect for wealth/property (when you're an asshole).

E.g. see what happens when a millionaire pisses off the fishing community by ignoring laws and harming river habitat



I mean it definitely was enough money to convince the county to prosecute after being prodded by the private land owner.
