Thank you for the insight, that was really illuminating! However, I would be super weary to boast of such connections, or for the friend even boasting of his granddad moving to South America after WW2, especially, if it was Argentina. There are very serious implications of it.
Just catching up with the thread. A few details. The story I told it's super common in South America. I know it sounds movie-like as there's the whole stereotype of suspiscious people going hide to Argentina

but that was literally 1% of the cases. Normal situation was: post-war, people trying to move abroad to make a living away from fascism or just the bad memories from it, or they didn't have any good education and moved from rural Europe areas to rural South American Areas. South America was seen as a good place full of investment opportunities. A tiny picture of it:

My friend is a really humble guy, he doesn't wear any brand items at all, he's just tidy and educated. He really liked that girl! So after a few dinners they started dating and he opened up about his peronal background.That's the saddest part.
This whole Anna movement of just thinking about the material part of it, the brands and etiquette, it just misses the part where a guy just likes you

obviously this girl started lying since the very first day and that's just wrong.
I feel that Anna "teaches" you that as you are inadequate, you should lie about your background, fake to be the most "elegant" person and go spend all your money on a LV fake and so on. This girl literally thought that she needed to lie to an extent that was just ridiculous.
