[quote=Anonymous]Yep - it's a version of "I am so successful and have so much money, look what I bought" keeping up with the Joneses type thing. Listen to my super fancy posh vaca and the amazing resort I stayed at and the expensive exotic things I did. Yes, it's fine to talk about travel but it does get boring when the purpose is to brag about money/success/look how much fun my life is. If they say something thoughtful then maybe it becomes interesting. No different than I moved into a mansion, or my kid drives this fancy car or wearing overly expensive jewerly that is trendy but they may not even like if it weren't trendy. I'm not into this even though I have more money than most ppl who brag this way. BUT maybe 70% of people are into this and are actually impressed and think more highly of people who show off their money and want to be their friend for this reason. How do I find the other 30% to be friends with - that should be your real question.[/quote]
