I've been experiencing a ton of hostility lately from my friends and family. I don't feel like my interaction with them has changed, so I am at a loss as to why a bunch of people I care about are suddenly treating me like shit when I'm treating them the same.

The only thing I can think of is that after 5 months of intense effort, I just landed a new job that's going to give me a huge salary increase and more status. I'm quite suddenly going to be out earning all of my family and nearly all my friends and I can't help but wonder if it's the source of the hostility. I haven't gone out of my way to tell anyone how much I will earn, but I did tell them honestly when they asked and most of them have asked.

Have you guys experienced hatred from family and friends after improving yourself? If so, how was it manifested and did it last?
