[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid was telling me the other day that the poor kids in school have all got $100 or $200 trainers, while many of the rich kids are wearing $45 sneakers. Not of course a main reason that poor people stay poor, but poor choices on conspicuous consumption is not always irrelevant either.[/quote] When you can never attain the big thing (house, neighborhood, full college tuition) you splurge on the small thing (sneakers, phone, clothes, maybe ever a more expensive car).[/quote] This is so true. Tired of rich people cosplaying regular people by saying things like "I wear hand me down clothes" but also flying private for vacation. Your splurges are not regular people splurges and you can't wear enough hand me down clothes to negate the cost of private jet trips. [/quote]
