Yes! Thank you for using the perfect word for how I feel. I'm sure rich people have "rich people baggage" but I believe they are either a) not a deal blocker or b) mitigated by their advantages.

Edit: I have a few 1% friends. As far as I can tell, rich people baggage is usually complaining about money.

Rich people baggage comes out whenever they don't have full control of a situation.
