There's Nothing to Like in this JP Morgan "Honeymoon" ad

 


First of all, there's zero relatable about a couple in their- what, late 20s?- thinking about things like  Safaris and purchasing ranches in Montana.  With horses.

Second, these people come off as almost unbearably superficial and casual about money.  The guy is daydreaming about going on a Safari and even asks the JP Morgan guy if they can afford one.  The JP Morgan guy says sure, it will just take some planning- but is practically interrupted by another thought: wait, no- how about if they want to purchase a ranch in Montana?  With horses?

The JP Morgan guy, who if he's human is completely nauseated by the entitlement oozing out of these people by now, suggests that ok, we can look at "both those scenarios."  If I were him, I'd wait a few minutes for one of them to suggest that what they really want to do is go on a year-long cruise or maybe take a ride with Space X.  That's the level of maturity I'm hearing here.

Oh but wait, one of them mentions that maybe they'd like to start a family- a baby.  Or babies.  No, just one baby.  Which tells me that these twats haven't spent more than a few minutes talking about their future in the past two years, assuming that they've even been together for two years.  Safaris, ranches in Montana, maybe a baby or maybe two or maybe not...ugh, all these jagoffs have is money.  

And since the title of the ad is "Honeymoon," it's fair to assume that they just got married.  So they are having conversations about the future that people with two brain cells each usually have BEFORE the ceremony.  Better late than never, I guess- but personally, I'm not in favor of children getting married in the first place.  And let's face it- I don't care what the birthdates on the IDs say.  These people are children.  Rich children, but children.  And one of the options they are considering is....spreading the dumb to the next generation.
