Convincing everyone I'm poor, broke and struggling was the best decision I've ever made

Yup. When I was a kid my mother used to say you see a man walk down the street with brand new shoes and pressed pants and a new shirt and a expensive watch..<br> BUT. He doesn't have $5 in his front pocket...<br>Haha. So right mom!!

I knew two men when I was young. One of them spent freely while business was good. Drove fancy cars, dressed the part, had an expensive vacation home. When I asked him why he did so, he smiled and said to me: "If you got it, flaunt it!"<br>After a time his business was becoming less and less profitable, but he didn't stop the high living. When he died, he barely left enough behind for his widow to live comfortably on, and his business was in tatters.<br>The other man dressed like a beach bum (seriously) and drove an AMC Pacer. You'd never know it to look at him, but he was worth millions!! When he died, he left a very decent estate behind. <br>Lesson learned.

I know some extremely rich people. You would never guess to look at them. They are also incredibly generous to those in need. The difference being, they don't shout out about their very good deeds.

Appearing to be poor also makes you less likely to be a victim of mugging or burglary. If you look poor nobody will bother mugging you in the street, likewise if your house looks neglected and in a state of disrepair burglers will probably believe there to be no valuable items inside

Do not spend the money you don't have , to but the stuffs you don't need , to impress the people you don't know .

Looking poor varies for different people and purposes. I believe it has a lot to do with trying to avoid lifestyle change for external validations..... it's more internal. We need videos like these to bring us to this awareness. Great video by the way 💯
