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.

It's fine to wear expensive clothes if that's your way of motivating yourself and it's also part of your career to wear neat and expensive clothes.

But as for me, I don't wear any of them. I don't buy expensive clothes and I am not into fashion and that's why I am okay to wear cheap clothes and I don't mind people talking about what I wear. What matters to me is that I am buying it with my own money, not with credit and I'm comfortable with what I buy.

People look at the expensive brands to wear and they have the same mindset that those that wear it are social climbers.

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.

I agree.

It's not enough to judge someone with what they wear. Even the rich folks wear ragged shirts.

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?

As I was scrolling through my Facebook I saw this photo and how the image discribes the poor to be a kind of people that wears expensive thing to impress people to look like the rich, and the other way round, the rich appears to be simple probably not to be noticed as a rich person. My question now is that,

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?

There is a difference between the rich and the poor more especially in terms of there thinking from the two image above you will notice that the poor man is trying to deceive the world but when reality will hit him that's when he will realise that he is deceiving himself. The poor thinks that the cloth ,jewelry ,cars and the money a Richman have in his pocket is what makes them rich. So they end up acquiring all this thing without knowing that they are acquiring liabilities. The rich is rich because there liabilities can not equate there asset while the poor are poor because there income cannot equate there liabilities. So the picture is just showing or telling us that the poor spend more time acquiring liabilities than the rich do while the rich are busy acquiring asset

I would not call that a way of deceiving the world by the poor but I'd say the poor man is trying to meet up to the rich man's standard, if he doesn't do that he (the poor man) feels he can't get any where near the rich man and the rich man's life style is also the cause of what's making the poor to dress like they are the rich one while the rich just pick anything as long as they're comfortable and put on, no one can say to the rich man that he's putting on rags or whatever.
Dressing matters but the personality of the rich tells a lot about him but the poor man needs more than dressing like a rich man before he can blend in easily. For the poor man I'd call it fake life because they're not being real to the public, you're poor doesn't mean you have dress like a mad man, being real is more important than dressing very high while to eat 3 times a day is a major problem, another question for the poor who dress in an expensive way, can they keep up dressing in an expensive?🤔

Poor people dress like how they think rich people dress. Poor people do not have a lot of expensive clothing and luxury items so once they have at least once they will bring it with them everywhere and show it off as much as they can.

While rich people, and I mean the richest ones, are more quiet and classy about their clothes. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still very expensive but it doesn’t look cheap and tacky. Most likely the brands they wear are so expensive that most people have not even heard of it which is why probably people think the rich are not wearing something expensive. Rich people are not buying cheap clothes. They are just not showing off their wealth because they don’t need to be validated.

Even if they want to look rich, but poor people do not have the capabilities to afford the luxury that rich people can easily get. That's why when it comes to luxurious outfits and materials, it's only the real rich ones can actually afford to buy it, while the poor ones may only afford those class A items, not actually the original ones, so they can still look rich and classy like how the rich ones were seen.

Well, A lot of people are focused on showing off an image of wealth, despite not actually having any riches. Now and again, these individuals must comply with specific regulations regarding their appearance and lifestyle, independent of the critical nature of their financial needs. While purchasing counterfeit luxury items might offer them the look they want, in truth, this doesn’t always equate to their real situation.

Also individuals who are really wealthy can more easily secure luxury and products of excellent quality. Even if image may not symbolize everything, it tends to take an important part in shaping our societal perception. It’s important to respect ourselves without regard for the things we have. Considering how we regard ourselves and socialize with others is as important as thinking about what we wear.

Rich people have habits for luxury.
Even if they don't spend a lot of money on clothes or other technology, I'm sure they have a taste for spending a lot of money.
I think this image is a consolation for poor people, so it seems to me that it's being shared.

People who are really rich they know how to be luxurious in their lives, and what distinguishes them is that the real rich people do not need to show off their wealth to look rich, like poor people who want to be considered that they have money because they can afford clothes or luxury goods, instead the rich live with their needs but with quality goods not luxury, because luxury does not necessarily have quality.

This is not entertainment for the poor, but I see this kind of ha as a satire that why poor people find it difficult to become rich, because they focus on luxurious things that are not useful for their economy and only spend money that will later become garbage.

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.

The rich are the ones that flaunt their wealth while the poor might not even have enough to afford even the fake of those luxury shoes, wears, wrist watches etc. Life can be as difficult for the poor not even to to the extent of not having the time to check for the price tag or how much the cost of what the rich are wearing. Some feel like that's not their priority and it's not necessary. Although there are people that wouldn't mind going as far to know how much their celebrities are wearing when they don't even have a job to fend for themselves. These kind of people might have lost their priority without even knowing.

I think rich people use more luxuries because they have more resources. Poor people have less resources and they can't enjoy life of rich people but they show like they are rich person. The rich people have more assets than poor and middle class people. Rich always learn about things before investment but poor people blindly invest in anything. Middle class people are also poor people but they have more money than poor people and they always show to be a rich person. They have enough salary but they have no knowledge of finance and they spend their money in useless things abd that's why they are not rich people.

I believe those kinds of images are misleading, makes it seem the rich does not actually go around and enjoy luxury, when in reality they do it.
There are entire purse and handbags made by recognized designers which are supposed to only be bought by the richest women on the planet, there are expensive sport cars which are only to be bought and drive by millionaires/billionaires and there are also very expensive restaurants where the minimum meal could cost several hundreds of dollars per person.
Those are businesses which continue to thrive to this day (they do not go bankrupt) and it is because there rich people out there willing to spend part of their fortune in luxurious articles and products.

The image of a person who does not spend much on what they swear and use in the daily routine is someone who saves money (for whatever reason) but does not mean they are rich, they could be saving money because they are even poorer than the person on the left of the image Roll Eyes

It's not every rich person that dress so simple as the image has shown and it's not also all poor people that dresses all good to impress others. Some poor people are still contented with what they have while some rich people too will dress very nice and wealthy all the time. All of those things depends on personal interest, although I can not deny the fact that some poor people like to show off but some of the materials that they use to show off might not even be their own. There what is called "borrow-pose", showing off what what does not belong to them.

Every thing in life actually depends on personal interest, both rich people and poor people have their own ways of doing things, is not all rich people that are humble, some of them are so proud, and will not think of downgrading themselves for no reason, they don't bother about the expenses and always purchase every materialistic things that they need or deserve, just to make them appear rich, good, classic, healthy and also bring out their beauty in the eyes of people, and a make them different in the mix of poor people. Poor person that does not want to deceive himself will open his eyes to see the reality of life, and he will not forget his personality, he will be contented with whatever he has, without thinking towards rich people's direction. Poor people only concentrate on how to fulfill their daily wants, and food is always their first priority not dressing code or to look attractive neither impressing people.

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

I also think like that because in reality it is quite clear that poor people are always busier thinking about daily food every month from the results of their own hard work. While rich people will always shape themselves to be more useful and more respected by everyone because the direction focused by rich people is very different from the focus of poor people who are only focused on food.

Rich people who appear simple from the outside are very smart rich people because they care more about how to turn money around in order to get more money, but rest assured that clothes that look simple on rich people's bodies are not cheap clothes. So we also can't judge it simply because rich people will definitely wear more comfortable clothes even though they don't look so luxurious in the eyes of many people, but they must be clothes that have famous brands and also material quality that is not simple.

I heard mark Zuckerberg was in Nigeria few years back and he was spotted somewhere in Lagos putting on a regular t-shirt and a jean and people consider it to be an average look but he's a billionaire, but it's funny how someone with just 1 million naira in Nigeria has so many shiny outfits just to impress others

So what do you think about this picture of him? This photo was taken at the wedding of India's richest family, and Zuckerberg was wearing a shirt with lots of gold embellishments.

Why isn't he wearing a t-shirt and jeans like when he met the Nigerian? And does he really not own any expensive clothes like you're saying? LOL. Rich people are very smart and they can communicate through their appearance, they not only want to attract the crowd but also want to win people's trust. So don't be too naive and rush to believe that they are very humble and simple people just because they dress simply in front of you.

Or at the Everland party, he wore an Alexander McQueen vest with a dragonfly pattern and as far as I know it cost over $7,000.

Poor people are concerned with material things because they are in need of it or should I say obsessed, poverty is a state of mind so if you give a person with this mindset some millions they will end up lavishing it and buying expensive things. I heard mark Zuckerberg was in Nigeria few years back and he was spotted somewhere in Lagos putting on a regular t-shirt and a jean and people consider it to be an average look but he's a billionaire, but it's funny how someone with just 1 million naira in Nigeria has so many shiny outfits just to impress others

The mentality is the key here, the resources that we have at our disposal are limited and how we decide to use them will dictate if we improve our lives with them or not, someone spending most of their disposable income in clothes and other luxuries will most likely never progress in life, while someone that started on the same conditions but used their money to prepare themselves and invest, will soon enough find themselves with more money than what they know what to do with.

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.

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.

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.

Quote from: Alpha Marine on September 17, 2024, 05:44:05 PM

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 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...
