I have a friend that needed a new car years ago. I asked her if she wanted me to go with her to shop for it. She said yes. We went to a Toyota dealership, and she picked out the most beautiful Land Cruiser they had. I thought she was joking. She told the salesperson what she wanted. He asked how she wanted to pay for it. She handed him a card and told him to call the number on the card. He went and made the call. Ten minutes later he ran back to us and said the car would be ready soon. 15 minutes later he handed her the keys and said thankyou about a hundred times. I had no idea what was going on. No test drive, no paperwork, just a very excited salesman and a brand-new Toyota Land Cruiser. The whole thing took less than an hour.
Later I asked how she did that. The lady on the business card did large purchases for her. She had a financial Manager whose sole responsibility was to manage her estate. I ask: " do you have a big estate? " She replied " About $40 million I think." I was shocked! She lived in an old top floor apartment and went to the local collage. I later found out she was from an old money family. I would have never known had I not gone car shopping with her. The money doesn't matter though; she is a lovely person and I hope she is doing well these days.

I used to deliver packages and the wealthiest, gated homes/communities had the largest percent of Camrys, American made trucks and SUV's and similar. While the poorest apt's and neighborhoods had Mercedes, BMW, Humvees, etc. I was shocked when I realized this was the norm. And it speaks volumes.

Being rich isn't buying a Rolex, it's knowing you can afford one

[mnpraveen]

You can live poor, only when you are rich... #fact.

Even as a wealthy person myself I refuse to buy designer products and drive fancy cars. Simplicity is the best ❤️

I've always been curious how many luxury car owners are just overleveraged middle class people trying to look wealthy. Much like the book "The Millionaire Next Door" states, the highest percentage of millionaires drive Fords. I don't care to look flashy because I couldn't care less what anyone thinks of me, you just make yourself a target otherwise. I'll just keep driving my 17 year-old car until it dies completely. Vehicles are an expensive waste of money anyway.

It's interesting that SM was mentioned twice on the list--spending too much time on and flaunting on. Since those people want to fake being rich, I guess it's all about being seen, and looking at others to compare yourself. I saw a meme once that was brilliant. It said, "People don't want to have a million dollars as much as they want to SPEND a million dollars." Summed it up, right there.

i hate to admit it, but I have three of these 10.
1.I keep talking about money - my investments are starting to snowball and I cant stop thinking about it. :/
2.Overdressing - I wear a blazer and tie every day with my dark jeans and dress shoes every day - i'm trying to be taken more seriously by my (small business) clients
3.Renting for 9 years - I've been renting an apartment 4 minutes away from work because I can BARELY afford a house this close to work. If the prices drop a little and my investments go up a little, I would totally buy a humble house in this area.

Now that I know, I'll try to curb these shortcomings.

"Posing next to a sports car (or luxury car) that doesn't belong to them" is a picture you see on almost every guys Instagram and dating profile. 😂

Some rich people don't dress in suits and ties, they would rather wear t-shirt and pants.

Rich is no debt, a paid off house, a car perfectly maintained without complaining mechanics are crooks, a manicured lawn, good food at home, ability to afford medical checkups and health with/without insurance. Freedom to spend time as you see fit instead of how others see fit such as an employer or peers. And finally rich is generous and gives back to this wonderful world we inhabit

Simplicity is the epitome of sophistication- Maya Angelou
I get judged that at my age I own no car and I use public transport.
So odd 🤔.. that wealth is determined by a automobile.
In my mind I'm like the assets I've amassed in more than a decade can do anything but choosing Simplicity works all the time.

This reminds me of the book, “The Millionaire Next Door”…

I'm poor on paper but rich/wealthy in mind, what I mean by that is according to the tax laws in Florida and the government I'm poor, but I'm rich/wealthy in mind cause I'm building my wealth by investing in myself by reading and buying books on getting the 💰 and securing the 💰, putting my money to work for me, investing in stocks, bonds, real estate investing and lending, and investing in start up companies, investing in my health, you have to have your health to build wealth, so I got gym membership and go to a therapist for my mental health. There were times that I blow the 💰 but now as I get older, I don't need to impress people with designer clothes and shoes. I only go to social media cause of family and friends and learning about getting another source of income. I refuse to go broke to prove to that I'm not broke, i buy necessities and investments.

There was a time when we " made it here", we had jobs for everyone and the products were of high quality, then the 1% wanted everything. Now Inflation drives prices up and if Inflation is high and jobs disappear by the millions we are in a recession and maybe headed for a Depression…So be careful with your money. It may take decades to get back on pay again. Luck to all..

[SuperSaiyanMaster]

People (only the lazy or undetermined) really need to get it through their heads that faking being rich is not going to make you rich

This is one of those contents that would fit for Saturday or Sunday video. I love it.💯

It is easy to take a person out of poverty, but it is very hard to take poverty out of a person.... almost impossible.
