What the poor earn they spend on their lifestyle. Instead of spending what the rich earn on their lifestyles, they spend it on How to Sign in Life Business Studies. Rich people who are smart prioritize career path over lifestyle. Which shows that the poor do not show any interest in building a career.

I will not assume all poor people are like that because basically rich people who currently prioritize their career paths over lifestyle were also poor in their past. So you also have to see some poor people who are smart in using their money because not all poor people are only interested in showing off their lifestyle in this world. Because I have also found poor people who are smart and prioritize their money to build a career rather than using it to elevate their lifestyle in a moment.

So we can conclude that it always depends on themselves when they want to use money because on the one hand I have also found rich people who are not wise in using their money. So we can't judge things like that from just one side, but we also need to see from many sides so that we can find something more appropriate to make an assessment of the rich and also the poor even though most of the poor people do care more about lifestyle. Likewise with rich people who generally also care more about their careers because they are considered rich by many people without having to show something luxurious in their lives.

I know, not just you but everyone here is giving opinions based on their life experiences, but why? Why don't we look at ourselves and see who we are in that picture instead of judging others? Why don't we take ourselves as an example, we don't judge ourselves, why do we only like to judge others?

When I saw this your coment it caught my attention and I laughed because I was thinking exactly thesame thing as well, on how everyone will keep on blaming the poor of their attitude of extravagant spending as if they are all rich people. Now the question is who is a poor person among everyone here? Because from my end I think people don't admit that they are poor or have such character but keep on blaming the poor and exempting themselves from the poor. Lolz it's quit funny. But the truth be told, it's hard for people to admit to their fault but keep on blaming other. Almost %80 of the world population of the poor leave a fake life. who knows if I am among the %80 Grin

How can the poor even spend on luxury? Maybe in there dream world. There is no way he can spend on luxury, he or she can only get whatever by going for the list cos they can't avoid high grade of luxury or borrow from friends, relatives, neighbours and church members or even steal to fill among. When one is poor you are poor and gets poorer if you don't do the right thing not to talk about making yourself available for a race with the rich.
The poor goes for luxury only on rare cases for instance, a must occasion they needed to attend but the rich can't hide it, in their skin colours you will know that he or she is spending in it, their day to day lives are on expensive luxuries but the poor appears on luxuries once in a year.

It depends on the perception that people have, and I think it doesn't matter if you are rich or poor, there are things that are not luxuries, the basic things, like dressing, having a good house and living well, I know some friends who are well off, you could say they are rich, but they dress like beggars, and whenever they go shopping they buy the cheapest and end up in a unique state of meanness, then why have money if they are like that? I don't see the point , so sometimes luxuries for one are a necessity for others, living well is not and will never be a luxury.

Poor people actually do not accept the reality that they are poor people, so they try very hard to get attention and validation from other people, while rich people no longer need validation that makes them look rich. There is even a survey that shows that poor people buy more new cell phones than rich people and this fact is undeniable.

That is clearly true and I have also found something like that in the survey in my living environment where poor people always prefer to replace their smartphones so that people around them think they are rich, even though they have cut their own food rations just to be able to buy luxury goods even though they are not useful enough for themselves. While people who are considered rich will always be more satisfied with what they already have and will continue to use it as long as its usefulness is still very appropriate and can still help them in their work.

@Pokapoka124, can you tell us if you are rich or poor and how you spend money in life? Do you represent the rich or the poor? How can you know that all the poor in the world are spendthrifts and the rich are savers? Is poverty a sin? Are all poor people greedy, evil, wasteful, and thoughtless of the future? What is the purpose of this thread when I see most people jumping in to mercilessly criticize the poor and pretend you are all rich?

I live in a third world country, with an estimated 87 million Nigerians living in poverty so I think I’m in a good position to have a conversation about this topic. I didn’t say poor people are evil, greedy, or thoughtless. My point is far from it. I only gave my opinion on the topic based on my personal experience with rich & poor people in my environment.

Can you answer my question, are you rich or poor based on your country's average GDP and how you spend your life? Do you spend thousands of dollars on expensive clothes when your income is only a few hundred dollars/month? Or are you wearing clothes that cost only a few dollars while your income is in the thousands of dollars per month?

I know, not just you but everyone here is giving opinions based on their life experiences, but why? Why don't we look at ourselves and see who we are in that picture instead of judging others? Why don't we take ourselves as an example, we don't judge ourselves, why do we only like to judge others?

Honestly, I have heard about the economic situation in your country and I think you are not a rich person (correct me if I am wrong), and I believe you are focused on building a better future by working hard and saving as much as possible to invest. So why do we speak ill of other poor people? How would you feel if someone judged you based solely on your looks?

Our society is very diverse and rich, there are all kinds of people and each person has a different personality, we should not judge them by their appearance.

Of course there are both rich and poor people alike who wear expensive clothes. Now overall I would have to say that I see poor and middle class type people as the ones who tend to spend money in the least efficient ways, and for a large part that's exactly why they are poor or not well off. This is not to say I don't see wealthy people wearing nice expensive clothes, they do, but I just dont see it as much. They seemed to be much more frugal in this aspect.

There are poor people who make their economic situation worse by spending unnecessary money and wearing expensive clothes. The reason why most of these people are poor or below a certain economic level is because they use their financial resources inefficiently. Inefficient use of financial resources causes a person's economy to deteriorate.

Rich people are good at using their money efficiently. Problems such as inefficient use of money often show us that individuals need to act and behave appropriately according to their economic conditions in order to achieve a better economic situation.

Why do me keep emphasizing on the poor aspect while their are so many rich people out their that don't waste time to go for the latest shoes, wrist watches, cars and phones when the fund can be diverted into something tangible and be rewarding in the future. It is good we understand the reason why we are in existence because this will help us understand how we need to leave life without impressing the public to make decisions for us. The poor might not even have enough to eat for the belle while someone else is spending on luxuries. People are really suffering eating from hand to mouth while some rich kids are busy jumping from one party to another.

I disagree. This happens in real life, poor people often live a lifestyle that they cannot afford. Whether it’s having more kids than they can afford to raise or living in an apartment that is above their budget, poor people often find themselves in situations that keep them in debt. The image in the OP depicts a reality that is common in every part of the world. Give a poor man a small fortune, and he will suffer from imposter syndrome. A poor person who just made a little money will spend it all trying to look the part of a rich person.

You are right, but not all poor people have that kind of behavior. We cannot draw conclusions that all people are the same, sometimes this does not correspond to what we see. Personal branding is sometimes necessary to attract attention and for other purposes that result in financial gain, but not for lifestyle (especially for those who are poor). So some may exist as you are talking about, but they are a minority.

Between the poor and rich spending the most on luxury depends on individual been because there are some rich men that spends millions in dollar on luxury why there also some rich men that don't spend on luxury that is the individual aspect of it.

If you really know what been poor is you will know that the poor can never spend on luxury anybody you see that spends on luxury is not a poor person but a rich person.

And one thing appearance doesn't differentiate been poor or rich there are some things that you will see that look simple but they are very expensive.

Maybe this is more precisely on self-awareness of one's own circumstances, because indeed in my environment this also happens and it is true that rich people usually appear simpler compared to poor people who always want to appear luxurious by forcing themselves to be seen by many people even though perhaps, this happens to those who are poor but are not aware of their circumstances. In addition, there are young people whose family's economic situation is middle to lower but they force themselves to appear rich with the aim of wanting to be seen as luxurious by others, but it is not strange that there are those who are in debt or the goods they own are paid for in installments. For poor people who are self-aware, I think that even when they have a lot of money they will not spend all the money they have, this is more about self-awareness in my opinion. Because even with the rich, if they really want to be seen as luxurious by many people, they will appear excessive.

We don't use the same unit of measurement for money as the rich do; buying a luxury item for them is as easy as buying a carton of eggs.

Actually there's nothing wrong to make look rich as long as you cater that kind of habit and of course if there's a casual event that makes you get bigger network. In my perspective people who are in the middle class I guess not in poor brcause they dont want to look like others who can't afford those things or could be they just want to get look great and worst case is just to flex to other people. People sometimes treasure and becomes tropy in those expensive clothes but again does it return a good profit no it's an expenses already and rich people mindset knew that reason why they wear casual , invest more in other assets give them a good cash flow money and they will bought it after if they really need it.

Does wearing of expensive cloths, shoes and other expensive things a sign of being poor? Or does it mean the rich doesn't wear expensive things or doesn't leave a luxurious lifestyle?

In my opinion, expensive clothes and goods can be a choice, but it is not an indicator to see whether someone is rich or poor. even many rich people choose a simple lifestyle, while others may dress luxuriously to express themselves. Therefore, to judge someone poor or rich is not measured by what they wear.

Indeed, in the end, a person's lifestyle influences what they might do. If he has a large income and is rich, but if his lifestyle is ordinary, then whatever he wears will look very expensive and good, but the price is not necessarily because he is not luxurious or simple, but it can be the opposite. There are those who are already trendy and want to use it because they can afford it, of course it doesn't matter, it will be a problem if he can't afford it and wants to be stylish, of course it will harm him.
I agree, someone's rich or poor is not easy to measure from the appearance they have used so far, it could be the opposite of what is real.

I have come across the picture in the OP a few times and as much as it makes sense to me, the rich trying to look rather slick and simple, the poor are always aiming to be the glamour of the show, to steal the red carpet and be the talk on everyone’s lip.
However, I think there are levels to luxury. Perhaps them cloths and those apparels that presents you outwardly in a way that would call for attention and appreciation makes it for the poor, the rich does it in a different way and style.

Lunching this and that program, fancy parties and even buying those luxury watches and cars. Trying to own this and that Island, that’s just the rich people lifestyle.
