People, rich or poor, like their priests and often like to thank them for the hard work they do and invite them out for lunch or dinner.
I took a visiting priest from Africa on a day tour of San Francisco. I paid for everything, not because I am rich (at the time I was unemployed); but, to thank him for the wonderful impact he had on my spiritual life while he was here!
Some members of my family criticized me for the WASTE OF MONEY!
I was happy to do it and we had a good time!
Therefore, you do not see priests with only rich people.
However, I do suspect it would depend on where your parish is in a city - an East End or West End kinda thing.
