My work has value for other people, that's all. What would be the point in showing off, anyway? There's only one thing that's precious for real: it's someone's health. Everything else means nothing at all.

      Yes, this was our landlord when I was a kid. The man owned several appartment buildings, tour busses and a limousine renting business. But when you looked at him you could never guessed that he was a business man. The man dressed in the most simple outfits. A plain t-shirt, jeans and sneakers. And drove a simple car. Nothing flashy. But he had a very beautiful house and in his backyard he had a huge cage with an eagle inside. He was a very humble man.

      I really don’t want to seem like I’m bragging or what, but when my dad met Jimmy Choo (yes, The designer) in person for the first time, it was actually at a Supermarket in Malaysia.
      He was all decked out in normal clothes & when he introduced who he was, my dad & him went aside & talked for hours like they were best friends or something.
      This happened years ago & they until this day still keep in touch. The amount of times I’ve seen Mr Choo & his fam dressed in normal clothes don’t surprise me anymore & what surprises me more is the amount of wealth he’s surrounded by a lot of the time but really couldn’t care less. He’s a very humble & generous man that truly loves his family & is willing to share knowledge to anyone that’s invested to know more about starting a business, etc.

But I never ask people to give me money, I’m never desperate or screaming about it or doing anything annoying. I also dress modestly and my car is modest. I’m in control of my life. If anything, I’m willing to pay for friends if needed when we go places, cuz I wanna have good life experiences and I’d rather bring friends along even if they can’t afford something. I understand not everyone is gonna have the discipline, motivation, or sometimes IQ to be successful and that’s totally ok.

      I agree with you completely. The problem with a lot of these videos is that they don’t consider the real reason why so many are poor. It’s true that different mindsets create different outcomes, but what about systemic and structural inequalities. Tax non payment for multinational companies, nepotism etc.
      These videos are far too simplistic, and blame the poor for their plight. A lot of rich people also have trust funds, utilise the money, then pay taxes in what is left. Most poor people aren’t given their earnings until the state has taken its cut.

Imagine, that insecure woman who lost a necklace which she thought was extremely expensive and borrowed from a wealthy schoolmate was actually made of paste after buying the replica of that jewelry and paying off the massive debt she and her husband incurred. All because of her stupid vanities.

(though I'd like to add that sharing one's love/excitement for something is quite diff. than boasting about it in regards to their mannerisms) Otherwise, who cares what ppl choose to spend their money on, if it's what makes them happy.

The original house was really cute & simple, it did need a few repairs but nothing major. She went all out on the renovations, spent 5k alone on one countertop, which was marble. She mainly fixed up the living room & kitchen, and had an apartment made in the basement. She blew all of her money on cosmetic repairs to the house, & now she's back at square one. The apartment helps, but she literally took out a loan because the cost of the renovations exceeded the money she received from the sale. So now it's like she has a mortgage again. She really, really screwed up her chance at financial freedom because she wanted to appear rich.

    I notice this with some college students and some younger people. I see some college students and younger people complaining and moaning about being broke (although some are genuinely broke and sadly struggling for reasons out of their control) but they always manage to have the latest iPhone when their previous one worked perfectly, they are driving a Benz or a BMW, buying Starbucks drinks and other expensive meals everyday, buying the latest expensive brand name clothing, have a new set of nails weekly, and overall living above their means. Mind you living lavishly on an entry level fast food or retail salary. They often times complain about not having a reliable laptop for schooling, money for textbooks or other money for other school supplies. They will also be the first ones to turn their nose up at you for thrifting, hitting up clearance racks, using coupons, budgeting and living comfortably below your means.

    Back in the 70's I had a very good job, was young and in good shape. I was a bit of a clothes horse and had my hair styled well and wore some class jewelry / watch as it often got me upgrades by the flight crew and even a few lovely should we say social experiences. As I aged I dropped that crap, and actually went the other way. I am far from wealthy, but I am retired and in no financial debt with substantial assets. I now actually dress down, especially when travelling overseas. Always best to look like you are not worth the bother to rob than to present yourself as a desirable target.
