I'm just a German of average income, and I have nothing but respect for anyone who starts a business from scratch, creates countless jobs, pays his taxes within the country, tries to stay in touch with even his lowest employees and in return becomes incredibly rich as a reward, simply because everyone wins. Those on the other hand who became filhty rich working in the banking sector, making money out of money, didn't do anything to deserve my respect.
You can always be like Haiti and just kidnap the rich guy to take his watch. But as you point out, the rich guy is much more useful alive and running his company.

@@hannagg9365 So? Hereditary guilt or what nonsense are you talking about? Being a heir of a quite wealthy family, of course with ties to our countries past in one way or another, it's rather just that not everybody gives a crap about staus symbol bs, public praise etc. and folks just doing what they think is right without requiring praise or recognition as reward. Maybe the same reason why "charity"-galas and the like are not as big a thing around here as they are in the US and so on.

Yes, because in this world there are rich, middle and poor people and we are all free to do whatever we want. It's none of our business whether they want to make it public or not. So continue to appreciate and respect each other regardless of one's status. 😊
It is correct, those who are really rich don't want publicity but those who have less want to be recognized. Even tho the way they speak is aggressive to my sense of hearing but in reality they are gentle and considerate people.
One of the most wealthy Germans, Dieter Schwarz (founder of big the supermarkets Lidl and Kaufland) lives in my city. He is retired now, and there are no existing photos of him in the last 20 years. The newspaper doesn't write about him, because he wants to live a decent life. His house is in an area where the "upper class" of our city lives - many beautiful old houses, some very decent, some more luxurious, many "normal" houses for one family and even some houses with more apartments for people of all incomes. He has build a new campus with a special college/university where the students are part time in a company (Lidl/Kaufland) and part time at the college. He does much for our city, without telling everyone. Very likeable 😊
Ich studiere am Europaplatz und habe ihn tatsächlich mal gesehen - bin in ihn reingerannt, hab mich entschuldigt und dann die wütenden Blicke der Männer gesehen die "rein zufällig" um ihn rumstanden - hab erst hinterher anhand von den alten Bildern die man im Internet noch von Herrn Schwarz finden kann festgestellt wer das eigentlich war und dass es sich bei den Typen um seine diskret gekleideten Bodyguards handeln musste.

Like my dad said near 30 years ago to me and my brother. We could buy every year a new Mercedes S class (we were driving always used cars for maximum 10.000 DM at this time) but nobody needs to know that we have money! People become jealous and want what other people have or talk shit about them.
Well thats very shallow thinking! Im not doubting he made it like that, but evil people don’t care about that. They just want to get that money from him. Why really wealthy people hide their wealth is: - Cousins or family who are like a bucket with big holes want more and more every time. They can also pose an existential threat sometimes because of greed! - Divorce lawyers will find out where you live and stack your wife. These are not your abrogation old lawyers, they are people who hire professionals make seducers/young macho guys to hit on your wife. They act like they have money and act like they love her and conspire to take your money in court. Then the lawyer comes and asks for 30% and the guy tells her shes to beautiful to waste her genes with only one man! - Criminal bums will target your children and could steal from them, extort them or kidnap them! - Criminals could target you also in ways I won’t mention here so not to inspire lowlifes. This is why you hide your money no matter how ethically you got it! Because if you really worked hard to earn it you want to relax, not fight wars and battles to keep it!

Their fear isnt, that they are being taken advantage of in their personal lifes. The ppl around them full well know who they are 99% of the time. What these ppl fear is, that the public at large is more aware of the gigantic wealth discrepancy between normal folks and them.

I went to boarding school with children of the rich. We socialized with kids at other boarding schools. My father flew for an airline in the Middle East. I was forced to go to boarding school as there were no schools after 9th grade. I was definitely the poor girl in school, lol. I received a great education. I learned how to speak properly. I didn’t know what a double negative was prior to my boarding school. Typically, we graduated in the top 1% in English. There is a definite difference in old money and new money. You’d never know your standing next to old money, but new money flaunts it. Heck, old money kids used duck tape on their dockside’s. One thing I can say is they always made me feel welcome in their homes. They don’t live in reality as kids. It’s just not normal to get a Beach house for your 16th birthday, but for them it is.

True. The same is true in at least the Netherlands and the Scandinavian countries. Showing off is considered obscene. It's not a 120K electrical Jaguar, it's 'the car' It's not a € 2,3 million mansion, it's your house. That's also why most sponsorships and donations are done from companies. It's not just for tax reasons, but also because it's easier to say "This company has donated € 1000 to charity" than to say "This guy donated € 1000 to charity". Stamping your company logo on the van of the 'food bank' who gives leftover food to people on benefits is considered acceptable. Asking them to put your name or photo up there is considered obscene.
to avoid envy is accurate enough. Because for a good portion of society, it is envy they have towards the rich, not some moral high horse to judge them from.
technically every one of us is unique and if the rarity of a thing defines it s value : like diamond or gold than yes in fact everyone of us is priceless

Exactly. People that come from a family that has been rich for generations do not flaunt at all. They may talk about their business adventures, but not how rich they are. They also do not wear luxury brand clothes. Instead, they purchase bespoke.
I like what the other man said, it's not rich vs poor, it's about rich people giving opportunities and jobs to those in need. Not all of us are born rich.
One thing I have learned about the Germans from living in Germany is that they are absolutely modest and quiet people, even if they have a lot of money.
They're housed in Goering's old Luftwaffe ministry in Berlin. During the GDR it housed several ministries and dozens of demonstrators were killed in front of the building in 1953. It's called the most feared building in Berlin, due to its past and present usage.

The richer you get, the more you'll realize that it's not what you've seen in movies or on instagram. Status signaling becomes decreasingly important. Fancy clothes, supercars on a lease, expensive watches... That's all made for people trying to look rich (who more often than not aren't rich or typically won't stay for long). You become rich by acquiring assets, not liabilities. If you really are wealthy though, why bother showing anyone? Money speaks and wealth whispers. It's better to be rich and anonymous than poor and famous.
The nouveau riche Chinese clearly flaunt their money...and definitely do not follow what you stated above. In Toronto right now, there is so much flaunting of wealth that it becomes disgusting. Decades ago, hardly anyone drove luxury vehicles. These days, the streets are absolutely full of them. It used to be that wealth was not supposed to be flaunted. That rule has been completely thrown out the window these days, in my opinion.
I'm a poor asian living in a rich neighborhood in Germany. People's past time here are horseback riding, golf and especially sailing. I don't know either of them so I consider myself very very poor hahaha!! I work with the 4th generation German boss. As a foreigner I feel scared at first, but Germans are really humble.

It is considered rude in Germany, to flaunt wealth or even talk about money, especially with people you dont know very well. A classy rich person will not talk about their wealth.

The definition of truly rich is invisible. They "can't be seen from the street" their homes are down long driveways, discreet gates, on private peninsulas that most people have no idea are there.
if you think about Germany's history of colonization and the third reich, you'll find some of the top riches there, their fortune was passed from one generation to the next. Nobody of them wants to talk about blood money.
Expert: "Many rich Germans dont want publicity in the fear of kidnapping and their forefathers ties to the third riech" (literally the next sentence) Narrator: "The upper tier of Germans avoid publicity as if it were the plague, but what are they so afraid of?"
Exploring the world of the super-rich in Germany is both intriguing and thought-provoking. This documentary sheds light on a hidden aspect of society, prompting us to contemplate wealth, privilege, and its impact. Thank you for offering this eye-opening glimpse into their lives.

As a German I agree and understand that 'staying under the radar, quiet' menality these people have. It makes them kinda more normal looking and sympatic than those showing, spending (or better wasting) their money/whelth in all kinds of media and situations given to them. That could maybe called 'Rapper-style' in one or another way cause of the stereotype of spending lots of money on costy 'bling bling' stuff that is mostly not even needed in basic. Just for making a show-off to let the normal seen they 'have and can' buy whatever theiy want. :) In fact it's just simply senceless spending of money for profiling and standout from the rest. It clearly depends on the own character ect. a person have build in lifetime.

That's because German media isn't as badgering as American or even British media. They know their limits. If the interviewees say no pictures for the interview in the magazine then no pictures at all.

I've always appreciated as an American how the ultra rich in other countries are much different than the ultra wealthy in the US. However there are alot of wealthy people in the US like this as well - just bc u see things on tv or in movies doesn't mean it's true for all, but I do think we have our priorities messed up in the US and the flaunting of wealth gets a lot of attention i.e. the kardashians. Having debt taught me I don't like it and I stopped living outside my means and worked hard to pay off debts and now I am different than I used to be, but it's certainly hard. I was actually just at a fancy wedding last night and thought to myself what is the point to all this , unless u are the immediate family or in the wedding party all weddings are the same. But people have fancy wedding to flaunt wealth and I find that sad.

However, once they achieve greatness or success, they usually celebrate with some joy but they do not overdo it. To them, after success it's back to work. One reason why rich Germans don't like to show off is because they realise that no matter how rich they are, there's always someone else richer.....so what's the point of showing off. And lastly, Germans are very secure people about themselves.
"One reason why rich Germans don't like to show off is because they realise that no matter how rich they are, there's always someone else richer.....so what's the point of showing off." The real reason is that they are afraid that others will take something away from them. Many have been kidnapped in the past, so they are careful.
@@Nost2682 Not only that in Germany it is pretty bad to show off wealth, because it is not sociably accepted. You can google "Neidgesellschaft" to find out more about it.
One of the greatest value of being rich is that you can choose the people around you. As your parents could if they were rich too. So you get better advice than the rest might get. And keep the most comfortable company for being comfortable yourself. Why spoil that by going public (and have your head chopped off if worst comes to worse). A lot of life energy gets lost by dealing, not been able to avoid the wrong kind.
I couldn’t agree more with what you said. The people around you either make or break you. Your energy is your greatest asset. To waste it on lowlife losers is a tragedy.
I disagree, the are a lot of things that cannot be translated word for word. German is quite the complex language; English on the other hand, isn't. The translation and adaptation of sayings/phrasing in this video is great.

I'm just a German of average income, and I have nothing but respect for anyone who starts a business from scratch, creates countless jobs, pays his taxes within the country, tries to stay in touch with even his lowest employees and in return becomes incredibly rich as a reward, simply because everyone wins.
Those on the other hand who became filhty rich working in the banking sector, making money out of money, didn't do anything to deserve my respect.
You can always be like Haiti and just kidnap the rich guy to take his watch. But as you point out, the rich guy is much more useful alive and running his company.

One of the most wealthy Germans, Dieter Schwarz (founder of big the supermarkets Lidl and Kaufland) lives in my city. He is retired now, and there are no existing photos of him in the last 20 years. The newspaper doesn't write about him, because he wants to live a decent life. His house is in an area where the "upper class" of our city lives - many beautiful old houses, some very decent, some more luxurious, many "normal" houses for one family and even some houses with more apartments for people of all incomes. He has build a new campus with a special college/university where the students are part time in a company (Lidl/Kaufland) and part time at the college. He does much for our city, without telling everyone. Very likeable 😊

Why really wealthy people hide their wealth is:
- Cousins or family who are like a bucket with big holes want more and more every time. They can also pose an existential threat sometimes because of greed!
- Divorce lawyers will find out where you live and stack your wife.
These are not your abrogation old lawyers, they are people who hire professionals make seducers/young macho guys to hit on your wife. They act like they have money and act like they love her and conspire to take your money in court. Then the lawyer comes and asks for 30% and the guy tells her shes to beautiful to waste her genes with only one man!
- Criminal bums will target your children and could steal from them, extort them or kidnap them!
- Criminals could target you also in ways I won’t mention here so not to inspire lowlifes.
This is why you hide your money no matter how ethically you got it!
Because if you really worked hard to earn it you want to relax, not fight wars and battles to keep it!

Their fear isnt, that they are being taken advantage of in their personal lifes. The ppl around them full well know who they are 99% of the time.
What these ppl fear is, that the public at large is more aware of the gigantic wealth discrepancy between normal folks and them.

You become rich by acquiring assets, not liabilities. If you really are wealthy though, why bother showing anyone? Money speaks and wealth whispers. It's better to be rich and anonymous than poor and famous.
Absolutely true...👍
Thanks for watching and for sharing your thoughts on the topic.
Instagram is the house of imagination of poor people!!!!
The nouveau riche Chinese clearly flaunt their money...and definitely do not follow what you stated above. In Toronto right now, there is so much flaunting of wealth that it becomes disgusting. Decades ago, hardly anyone drove luxury vehicles. These days, the streets are absolutely full of them. It used to be that wealth was not supposed to be flaunted. That rule has been completely thrown out the window these days, in my opinion.
Ahh... damn it... I got it wrong - I'm poor and anonymous.
I should've double-check it first 🤦
I'm a poor asian living in a rich neighborhood in Germany. People's past time here are horseback riding, golf and especially sailing. I don't know either of them so I consider myself very very poor hahaha!!
I work with the 4th generation German boss. As a foreigner I feel scared at first, but Germans are really humble. You wouldn't see a German boss bossing around like in Asia. He's also doing the work just like the rest of us employees.
Rich people here dress ordinarily and you can just talk to them about the weather without being intimidated. While me being poor likes to dress with LV, Chanel, Fendi, etc. 😂

It is considered rude in Germany, to flaunt wealth or even talk about money, especially with people you dont know very well. A classy rich person will not talk about their wealth.

As a German I agree and understand that 'staying under the radar, quiet' menality these people have. It makes them kinda more normal looking and sympatic than those
showing, spending (or better wasting) their money/whelth in all kinds of media and situations given to them. That could maybe called 'Rapper-style' in one or another way cause of the
stereotype of spending lots of money on costy 'bling bling' stuff that is mostly not even needed in basic. Just for making a show-off to let the normal seen they 'have and can' buy whatever
theiy want. :) In fact it's just simply senceless spending of money for profiling and standout from the rest. It clearly depends on the own character ect. a person have build in lifetime.
Truly rich people don't need to show off. The people who need to know already know them and those that don't know don't count. If you treat everyone with respect and fairness, chances are that you might run into someone and become friends with them who belongs in that top 1001 list (happened to me).

They are so often bored and lonely people, when not obsessed with their money and work life. They so often have zero hobbies they have passion for ....that do not involve making money. If they can't buy you, then they are lost as people....because they are so often pretty empty. If you don't give a shit about their wealth or their perceived status, there is nothing to be found of substance in relating to them. Yes, this is a generalization, but also a pretty solid one.
So... As a European, you'd still want to be a millionaire.
You know, it's not wrong and not even a shame to desire more.

The newly rich ones are the ones who want to show of their wealth. The really rich ones hide. Not only in Germany. I know some US Multimillionars. They are humble, nice and simple. They have everything already. So they can relax and focus on more things of real value like health and healthy food for example.
I think it's just personality. Yes, new rich are the ones who are fast life entrepeneurs, they are super ambitious and i think that personality type also likes to show off a bit more. But i tell you, if i won eurojackpot this week, i'd not show it off either. There is nothing positive to be gained from fame if you're already loaded with cash.
ALL MY RESPECT TO THEM and what you say is true here in Europe too.

That's because German media isn't as badgering as American or even British media. They know their limits. If the interviewees say no pictures for the interview in the magazine then no pictures at all. That's bazinga for British news outlets who would not only paste your interview next to the scandal that happened with one of your family members but will also choose the worst possible photo to go with it.
It's very easy. If you grow up learning that you don't show off, you just don't. You think before posting something on Instagram. You select your followers on Social Media etc....
I love Rossman's simple office layout, it seems like a good environment to focus.
I've always appreciated as an American how the ultra rich in other countries are much different than the ultra wealthy in the US. However there are alot of wealthy people in the US like this as well - just bc u see things on tv or in movies doesn't mean it's true for all, but I do think we have our priorities messed up in the US and the flaunting of wealth gets a lot of attention i.e. the kardashians.
Having debt taught me I don't like it and I stopped living outside my means and worked hard to pay off debts and now I am different than I used to be, but it's certainly hard.
I was actually just at a fancy wedding last night and thought to myself what is the point to all this , unless u are the immediate family or in the wedding party all weddings are the same. But people have fancy wedding to flaunt wealth and I find that sad.
Kardashian wealth is different tho. they made most/a lot of their money through Social media. in order to become successful in social media u need to be OUT THERE/U need hella attentions just like the Kardashians. The Karsashians wouldnt be where they at rn if it wasn't for social media/attention.
Here’s a clue about the secret wealthy, they are a “candlemaker” or “artistic consultant” in Aspen or Malibu. Or, 21:30 they suddenly retire and you don’t know why. Plenty of people have money and don’t broadcast it.

One of the greatest value of being rich is that you can choose the people around you. As your parents could if they were rich too. So you get better advice than the rest might get. And keep the most comfortable company for being comfortable yourself. Why spoil that by going public (and have your head chopped off if worst comes to worse).
