Recently, we asked the BuzzFeed Community to tell us the most clueless thing they've heard a rich person say or ask about money. Combined with some horror stories from rich bosses, we've rounded up some of the most out-of-touch comments rich people have made.

1."If you really care about helping elephants, you’d buy some and put them in a sanctuary." —sexyfart

TV Land

2."The owner of my former company said, when alerted to the fact that payroll had not gone through, that it was 'fine, because none of my employees are living paycheck to paycheck.' " —riggplustwo

3."When I was pregnant, I was talking to a friend of mine about how I was worried I was going to have postpartum depression after my baby was born. She told me, 'Oh, don’t worry about that; only poor people get PPD.'”  —zeeroworeez

Universal Pictures

4."In a class, we were talking about abusive work environments, and one girl was like, 'Well, I would just quit.' Several of us had to explain that just quitting your job is not an option for everyone. Sometimes you have to tolerate a horrible job while you look for a better one because you have bills to pay." —dellarock

5."I work in a bank so I have heard it all, but the worst was definitely a customer of ours that came in frequently. She once said, 'I wish I was poor like you guys. It’s too much work having all this money.'”  —hillaryd45fdef058

Bravo

6.“'I imagine my childhood was much the same as yours.' Said to me by a man in his family castle, as we admired his collection of classic cars."   —nikkinapalm

7."I was talking about how the washer and dryer in our rental busted as soon as we moved in. I was worried about how we would get another one. My boss gave me a look and said, 'You can get one at Best Buy for not that much, like $600 each? That's only $1,200.'"

"I responded, 'That's a lot of money.' She looked extremely confused. That was more than she paid me in two weeks; how in the world did she think I could afford that?" —Anonymous

ABC

8."I was having lunch with a former friend, and we were having a discussion about dental care. I mentioned that I had a tiny little discoloration on an otherwise healthy tooth. She told me I should just get it pulled and replaced with a veneer like it wasn't going to cost me an arm and a leg."  —fluffyblackcloud

9.*The CEO of my previous company asked for a mandatory donation of $150 to Toys For Tots in order to attend our Christmas party. The donation had to be from your own personal money — mind you, at the time I was making $12/hour."

"Here's the kicker...the Christmas party was hosted at a fancy hotel and a 'cheap' drink at the bar cost $12–$15. We asked if he would cover at least one drink for employees, and he said, 'I refuse to pay for my employees' drinks when there are children without toys on Christmas.' One year I spent $200 between the donation, two drinks, and an Uber home."  —Anonymous
