No, read what I said. Buying a suit that looks good and fits you is perfectly fine, buying one that doesn't fit you at all and makes you look like a moron just because it looks expensive and you want to show off your ability to buy an expensive suit is questionable.

Buying clothes that don't fit you regardless of whether they're expensive or not is asinine. What more is there to know? A: Nothing, case closed.

Mod had this to say about Tron:
Wow, I'm glad I'm not stuck in a situation of having to be in contact with you, you sound like a superficial, spineless little sycophant. You'll associate with people just so that you might possibly have the opportunity to brag about wealth you obtained in part by sucking up to others? "Better to give than to recieve" You'll participate in a detestable activity just so you don't end up on the recieving side of it? Pathetic. If it weren't for the "hurr Godwin!!!"-brigade there'd be ample examples of what that behavior leads to.Also you don't seem to realize that despite "going out, working hard and trying again when you fail" one can end up without a dime purely though factors beyond one's control, such as lack of opportunity. To use a somewhat tired example, there are tons of hard-working people in various parts of the world who cannot become the next Prince William because they are too busy being shot or starving, though no fault of their own. You better get busy rubbing your "bling" in their faces.
Material wealth is no more an indication of ability than a receding hairline is an indication of age, sure there may be a causal relationship between them in many cases, but they are very far from an accurate measurement.
You are correct. Hard work doesn't guarantee success. However, it's a step in the right direction, and gives you better chances than just coveting the wealthy.
And I don't think anyone's ever described me so well as your first sentence.

I used to work at a grocery store in a pretty wealthy area, and almost all the people who came there were elderly people. I always wondered about that. Is it just that the retired people do most of the grocery shopping; only elderly people even get groceries because young money gets all their food ready-made; or mostly the people living in that area are elderly. Probably the last one.
F*in blackbirds!

Wow, I wish I had the psychic ability to divine other people's inner motivations simply by noting that they dress in ways of which I don't approve, and seem to have access to more money than I do.
In my not-so-humble experience, however, people are people. Whether rich, poor, cheerleader, jock, bookworm, or geek, people are people. Imputing motives simply because their lifestyle differs from yours is the epitome of bigotry.

You know, I would love to know what it is you do for a living that makes you so succesfull that you support your folks and apparently have a car that will makes us all Jealous , all at the tender age of 19?

I believe he has said that he does modeling type stuff or something and makes good money doing it.
While I really think his post was antagonistic (I'd show you my daily driver...), I do think he actually does have the kind of money he's talking about.

People of any economic class can do the exact same thing (put other people down in order to feed their own self-esteem), only in different ways and over the most trivial things. This is one particular instance of a sadly relatively common behavior. While I do not have psychic powers I will take, for exmample, someone constantly "shoving their bling in people's faces" as Derek put it as evidence of the fact that the person doing it might not simply be a jewelery collector.

I just don't really care how people rich or poor choose to spend their money. If they want to waste their money on showy stuff that brings no one any pleasure, that's their deal. Only time it really gets to me is if a. they buy things like products of child/slave labor, b. they use products that have a direct negative effect on the economy/environment, like <2bflamed>hummers</2b>, or c. they make themselves off to be really generous, when in fact they are NOT. I remember not too long ago, Britney Spears' PR made a huge deal out of her "donating one dollar from every ticket" to such-and-such save-a-life fund. Yes, because one dollar out of tickets STARTING at $70 is just so generous. -_-

It doesn't, it's just that when I meet someone that constantly does that I'll think less of him and not associate with him, just like I'll do with someone who gets violent for no good reason or who doesn't have the decency to take a shower every second day. Some of my friends are from quite wealthy families and they don't go around being assholes about it and making sure that everyone knows that they're "IN DA MONEY".
