Do you prefer writing wealthy, middle class, or indigent characters?
I seem to prefer "middle" class to "wealthy" characters but clearly try to depict a social and financial fair society. I guess it stems from the fact, that in our reality, in which we live, I am a poor and because of this a very price/performance to monetary frugal person which results in a similar behavior for my characters, but since they often have more substantial income, reliable, high enough to live relaxed without counting every penny three to four times and other unrealistic stuff like OWNING their homes without extra costs, they simply accumulate more money. At least that's how my roleplay characters work and I guess it pushes through to my story characters as well if they aren't for roleplaying.
A werebear barbarian in DND, as an example, doesn't need money as regular as I do and gets more for its work of fantastic elements.
