[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]May be OP is only trying to mimic something which opens doors.

As a society we need to stop giving rich, goodlooking and privileged undue influence and opportunities. None of these are acquired skills, just good luck. [/quote]

OP - yes I know wealthy people come in all shapes and colors and sizes. But I am in a new position which puts me in contact with people across the spectrum. I need to look normal and not flashy for the regular folks but want to look decent enough for the uber-wealthy. I don’t have endless money to maintain myself so want to prioritize what is most important. I am “enough” (attractive, thin, educated) of some of these things but want to take it to the next level looks-wise. [/quote]

If they are coming to you through your work (let's say it's donor relations, or something like that), they mostly just care that you do your job well, meaning you are knowledgeable and capable. They will know that you are not one of them, anyway. There is no need to blend in with them, but rather to be really good at the job that brings you in contact with them and be not offensive. Same as with the "regular folks."[/quote]

OP - thanks. I will just work on being myself and maintaining/polishing up a bit more regularly and continue what I care about, which is the work and my causes.[/quote]

Yes, focus on educating yourself about the cause and the work in a really thorough, meaningful way. These people are donating to this organization or serving on the board because they care deeply about it—so that is your common thread/connection with them that you must nurture. It is also why they are coming to you and why they will continue to come to you. So make sure they see you as someone who is passionate about the cause and is educated on the cause. [/quote]
