We can't assume her family is less rich from just from the info we got from that prep party...She isn't from a wealthy family (at least wealthy compared to others we know of, like B&R). Sage says at the party that her dad is trying to impress people/make connections. So he isn't rich enough to draw attention, he's the one that gives attention.
In wealthy circles there's alot other status factors then just nominal wealth....
For instance are you "old money" or "selfmade", is it your money or did you marry into a wealthy family?
Or even what is the source of your income? Between your money coming from stocktrade, from being some kind of Larry Flynt with a porn empire or some big gangster.... The source of your income will be measured in respect or being frowned upon...
At this time we can only be sure Sage's father (or manbun) is not total incrowd, we see 2 others trying not to include him in attending some holiday retreat.... We don't see WHY.... For all we know he might have a bad drink or he's the only one bringing the wife or he never stops selling whatever his trade is. Effectively spoiling their fun is a reason not to want him there..
Besides that we see Jill and Bella speaking about Sage.. Bella tells she expected her to be a dumb spoiled princess...
If even Jill would think that way, it would even make sense if Sage's family actually is more wealthy then the Royces...
Also we know Sage hates the preps...
Besides that Jill tried to talk to her in the past but Sage avoided getting on better terms with her...
Reason enough to assume the preps are "Old money", the Burgmeister and Royce's founded the college and Jill isn't living there as part of the frat, she's there on her family's name...
