Topic: Rich and the poor who spend the most on luxury? (Read 1508 times)

I think it depends on the people's fashion,because there are also rich people who wear expensive things,and there are poor who that didn't want to look like a rich, although most of the poor wanted to look like rich but still there are poor who didn't want to waste thier hard earn money to buy expensive thing to look like a rich in the eye of the crowd. So it depends on fashion and the decisions of the people because we have different status in life.

This happens very often, rich people want to appear simple and poor people want to appear rich. However, not all are like that, so we can't generalize that all poor people look luxurious, maybe because of the demands of their jobs such as celebrities, lawyers and maybe there are other jobs that require them to look glamorous to attract fans or clients.

Rich people do on average want to appear simple, don't want to be complicated. They always buy everything in cash, never on credit. They have businesses, savings, and investments everywhere. The point is rich people are more secretive about their personal wealth, and they will give alms without other people knowing. This is very different from people who want to look rich and show off what they have.

I also wonder about this, once called poor people, where will they get the large amount of money to buy expensive things? Is there anyone here who is not rich but dares to spend a lot of money to buy those luxury items? Obviously, they can afford those things, which means they are not poor, we are underestimating them.



I also don't believe that a billionaire or millionaire would wear $35 or $100 t-shirts, maybe their dressing style is simple but that doesn't mean their clothes are cheap. Too many people get this wrong.

If you want to judge a person, don't just look at the way they dress, that's shortsighted and ignorant. Instead, we should look at their habits and the things they own like homes, cars, food, health care, and the places they go...

First, dressing alone is not what you can determine luxury.
Secondly, a poor person can afford a shirt for $1200. With the value of the clothes the "poor guy" got, you can tell he is not poor because no poor person can afford them.
Also, luxury doesn't start and end with what you wear even if I don't believe there's any billionaire that wears a $35 T-shirt. The kind of life a person lives is what is regarded as luxury. The food they eat, the house they live in, the car they drive, the kind of healthcare they have and many more. A millionaire can afford to spend ten thousand dollars on something a poor person feels is unnecessary.
Funny enough the rich even were very expensive things. The wristwatch of a Millionaire alone is expensive as hell, so please do a way with that narrative that the rich don't were expensive things.

I'm still not sure what OP's question is referring to because the reality is almost obvious, when rich people have money, they will form a need for beauty, aesthetics, health, fashion... because they don't have to worry about living expenses to cover daily/monthly meals like poor people and vice versa. Lol

This is true, expensive clothes don't always look flashy and modern, sometimes really expensive clothes are about materials, origin, limited editions from top brands...So if we want to judge others by their appearance, we should at least have some understanding of fashion, don't be so quick to judge others based on your little understanding. It just shows we are jealous of them.

I agree with you, it all depends on preference and everyone has different priorities. It's their money and they can do whatever they like, we have no right to judge others. There are too many people here who like to judge others, like to impose their thoughts on others. But I wonder, do they ever look at themselves before judging others? Are they qualified to judge someone?

There's no way that you could really be able to stop people on having those kind of judgment on which we know that when it comes to this aspect then people would really be always having something has to say on whatever the things that they would really be able to see out or something that they could observe. Yes, its true that we dont have the rights on what are the things that people will do into their money whether buying up things that they do want or like on which it would be in connection into the things that they do wore or whatever that we could see. Its their funds so its their decisions on where they would really be focusing into. Somehow as a human being then you could really be able to observe and lets say that you could make out comments on what are the viable or sensible things that they must do instead on focusing on buying that something which isnt something that beneficial.

It isnt really that bad on buying up on what we do want but make it sure that it wont really be something in excess or really just that too much. The wrong thing about most people been doing is that
they dont really get easily contented on what they do have. As long they do have the money or funds that they could have then they would really be definitely be buying it because
this is the primary thing that would really be having on their mind and wont care about those priorities that they should really be needing up to buy on.

I don't think generalization can be made here. Most poor people earn just enough to afford necessities, and don't have any leftovers left to 'pretend' rich while some rich like to flaunt their wealth, some do not.

In the modern era with increasingly advanced technology, style and character have become a trend in everyday life. From the picture that the OP put in this thread, it refers to the lifestyle of rich and poor people, we should not judge other people by dressing in expensive clothes, it could be just a character in their daily lives.
we can see that people with a standard economy look like rich people, while rich people who know the rules of life live simply, remember that appearance is not a determinant of rich people and poor people depending on how people judge them.

To be honest, the first guy wears cheaper clothes than the second one. The first guy probably wears cheap clothes bought from Shein or Temu while there is a high chance that the second guy wears expensive but very minimalistic Gucci clothes. Or maybe, the second person doesn't care about his appearance and doesn't invest in clothes? Yes, there are men who don't look good and also don't care about their looks or prefer the nerd style or dress like their grandpas.

I have often seen poor girls who invest in their clothes, haircare, makeup and smartphone. They look like millionaires but when I visited them, they were living in a very small basement and were very far from the impression that their looks left on me. So are some men too.

People have different priorities and that's all. I am not rich and don't want to flex what I am not but I invest in clothes and in my look because first of all, I want to look good (I'm metrosexual, not gay) and second of all, looks matter. When you look good, you attract attention, you have a higher chance to get job promotion and so on.

The reason why you seen most of this rich people dressing very simple is because they wouldn't want people to know that they're rich, sometimes they also dress like that so as to hide their identity. If you're a rich man and you're wearing expensive clothes and shoes all the time definitely people will envy you that is why you see most of the rich people appearing very simple.

Actually most of the poor people you see wearing those expensive clothes and shoes probably is just the money they hustle out from all this daily job trying to competite with the rich, it doesn't make any sense trying to put yourself in a level that you're not even up to. the funniest part is that most of this poor people you see with expensive stuffs they barely feed, I'm not saying that the poor shouldn't appear decent but at least we should buy the things we know we can afford and also have some change left so as to use it to Sort out other things.

some poor peoples trying to change their look like rich peoples but is it possible for them to buy an expensive car or house? in real life it's never possible, poor peoples can act like rich peoples but actually they are poor, and they have to struggle to buy their daily stuffs, how they can lead luxury life as rich person. no matter how simple looks a rich person but end of the day spends a lot of money and even uses expensive cars.

Conclusion: never look at someone from the clothes or luxury items they wear and never look at someone from cheap and wrinkled clothes, it could be that our assessment of these two people can be wrong or right.

A person's life cannot be measured by the things they wear, in my area there are many rich people who are economically rich, but if you look at it in terms of ordinary clothes, there is nothing luxurious that they wear, Likewise with those whose appearance is poor, oh, oh amazing, if they were walking together, people who didn't know them would think and judge otherwise.

For this reason, don't measure someone by their appearance, measure someone by their generosity, for me that is the real rich person, regardless of what shoes or clothes they wear.

In the above picture the rich man is wearing cheap clothes and the poor man is wearing expensive clothes. In the picture, the poor man wears expensive clothes to pretend to be rich but he is actually poor. On the other hand, the rich man wears cheap clothes because he does not need to wear expensive clothes to prove himself rich because he is really rich. Now luxury requires mind-set. There are still many poor people who like to live in luxury and there are rich people who don't like to live in luxury. Now expensive clothes shoes and living a luxurious life can be a sign of being poor, because you can't improve if you spend too much.

Well, if we only look at the picture, then we see that rich people look like people who wear cheap clothes. However, if you compare it to the place, then you will see rich people will wear very expensive clothes or accessories. I have seen clips of some rich people watching sports matches. At that time, they wore very expensive watches, even worth hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars. That would be really with the perception of the picture. If we look again at people who are really poor, then you might see them very short of money, and wearing shabby clothes, and even their living needs are difficult. So, I think the picture only reflects someone from their interests. If there are people who are not so rich or normal, and can meet their daily needs, then it is quite natural that they are interested in branded goods. Well, but this is still my view.

I don't think the point is there, friend. What we need to underline in this case is about how poor people always want to appear that they are not poor so they always give false hope by trying to make what they use as if they are capable of doing so in order to give the visualization that they are not in economic difficulty and prove themselves that they can afford such a lifestyle.

But in the end this just makes them stuck in the shadows where they only have the thought that rich is only when they use branded goods and look much more glamorous than other people but in fact it is clearly a mistake because we must be aware of how or the benchmark of wealth in the end.

The point of this image is to say that "poor people are not actually poor and if they can learn to control their economy then they could live a better life but because they spend their money on expensive stuff that causes them to become poor".

Why is there an image like that ? Because the rich wants you to think that there are poor people in the world who do not understand how economy works and they are poor because of that, but in reality poor are poor because they are not paid fairly and rich are rich because they take all our money.

The reality is that there are SO MANY poor people who can't even afford to pay their rent, and you think they are buying expensive phones is idiotic, they are not spending their money like that at all. I need to make this clear, wealthy people are brainwashing everyone to make them think that poor are poor because of their own faults, when it is not. Wealth gap grew way too much in the world right now and if we don't do something about it, we will all be poor.

Even the way of residence can be manipulated. If someone want to fake a life, they can go to any length to do a guy or lady can wear fake cloth just to get the attention of real rich person, they even plead with their understanding friends to help them disguise their place as their own, they make it more convincing by hanging there portrait so that anyone they bring will be convinced that they own the place when in reality it's a borrowed apartment.

Some of them fake life it until they make it, this set of people leave above their means but as they are doing it, they are also working underground to make sure they get to their destination and it becomes easy for them to blend in when they later make their money. However, it doesn't justify that living a fake life till you make is the best, there is no way one can figure it out with people that really want you until you test hard life, this help you differentiate between good friends and bad ones.

Poor people are always know with that habit of trying to impress people and that is what is always getting them in to unstable finance just because they are always buying expensive things and they are always broke instead of them to invest the money somewhere else they will want to get their self busy by trying to oppress people that don't even add value to their life, rich people are always wearing simple appearance and just only when it is necessary that you will see them looking expensive that will be when they have important meetings to attend when they have to wear a suit and look formal just because of the meeting. Just because of how simple they have decided to dress have caused confusion trying to determine their status, and that is why it is not good to be judging anyone just because of their appearance,  we should try to treat everyone equally and that way we might even be given our self more opportunity with them.  Their is a way I will look clean and simple and am not rich so dressing is not enough to determine their status.

It could also be that her clothes are damaged and she has put on enough clothes to hide it. But this picture is also for the morale of the poor people because the rich people put a few things and they are also expensive. And if you see in it, you have put a lot of things on the clothes of the poor and also told the price.  Look, if the poor person has got what is in his destiny, now that clothes is less or more, but the rich people should encourage them and inspire them to be like you.  Rich people like to be nice and decent to themselves rather than putting so much stuff on.  All the rich people you have seen don't have so many things on their clothes.  But they are expensive, it will increase the cost of poor people's clothes.  But you know the real truth.
