What Is Something Rich People Do That Gets Overlooked.. by BLUEJAYY: 5:49pm On Oct 17, 2019
...that poor people do and get criticized for?

-Rich people are allowed to 'drink' garri and peanuts but a poor man would get that pity look.


-Rich folks can wear a piece of clothing for as many days as they'd like; A poor guy would get mocked for that.

-Rich folks are allowed to smoke; A poor fella would be tagged irresponsible.

-Rich folks are allowed to loot government funds; Poor thieves are lynched(In Naija at least) grin

Rich people can evade tax; poor people have to pay to the last kobo grin

Add yours.

A rich man will say rubbish and unintelligent statements and people will take it as truth even without counter argument let a poor man do similar stuff and he is written off as a fool.

A rich man can Maltreat people below him and no protest if a poor man does that na beating em go receive.

A rich man will steal, inflate government contract and then when the country is broke create laws for poor people to pay back everything

A rich man with tattoos will be seen as cool but a poor man with a tattoo will be seen as irresponsible

A rich man that smokes indian hemp is cool while a poor man that smokes Indian hemp is seen as a potential armed robber.

Yeah. Actually you will see people doing the opposite

Every time a millionaire is showing wearing a bad fashion or looking somehow they will say that caring about such things is for poor people, which sounds crazy to me

In their defense, the hard work wouldn't let them have time for such 'trivialities'. I guess that excuse is acceptable to all, even though the rich Dog actually really has a poor taste of fashion or stuff. grin

Yes, but what people don't understand is that there are plenty of wealthy people who take pride in their appearance. Like you said if the person doesn't care, it's because he really doesn't care and not because he is wealthy

If the person doesn't have money now they will yab him forever so I don't get it

This is how people shield others from the truth because they think he has money

it depends on the rich person, if he is old money forget it, they dont care about appearance,they have seen it all, it is the new money aka Nouveau riche that care alot about appearance.

Rich people are always gonna have ass kissers though. It's their headache to identify what's real and what's fake.

You are right to an extent but some old money still make an effort to look neat and wear well-coordinated, high quality clothes. People seem to think only people wearing bright or elaborate clothes care for themselves.

Nouveu riche can be trashy and overindulgent in their appearance but some of them don't care either. Mark Zuckerberg they were yabbing just yesterday doesn't care whatsoever

Lol you see, you yourself are doing it. What does his bank balance have to do with his appearance. He already didn't care before he made the money

Your Nigerian example doesn't hold because dressing simply doesn't mean you don't care...flashy and simple dressers can both care.

That's like saying buharis jalabiya doesn't cost because it's simple when really it's made of high quality material. Or are dangotes simple suits cheap? They are still showing their wealth but not in a trashy way

Somebody old money who doesn't care is Boris Johnson...refuses to comb his hair or arrange his shirt inside his trousers

So you see..it just depends...

what am i doing..my take is that he dresses like everybody else just like steve jobs did

lol..everybody cares about their dressing whether poor or rich, the difference is one isnt trying to impress so much like how poor and middle class people do....there are many wealthy people that dont wear designers, they go to the common store like everybody, they even wear re-use cloths..

dangote might not show off his wealth in clothing but his lifestyle like yacht, private jets, art collections he buys, foreign properties he owns and maybe the type of exclusive clubs he attends which normal people wont be given access... wealthy people show their wealth in different ways that is more than clothing and apperance.

You said Nouveu riche care, then I mentioned MZ and you said he's earning billions so he doesn't care. That's what I mean when I say it depends on the individual

I don't think everybody cares how they look or knows how to dress and it doesn't depend on socioeconomic status, that was just my point. But when someone wants to point it out on a wealthy person they will keep mentioning money as if that has anything to do with it

Yeah there are wealthy people who just wear anyhow, then there are those who don't. Some will wear donated clothes and some don't like it.

Yes but Dangote still wears expensive clothes and looks well-put-together even though he is wealthy. Even if he doesn't need to impress he still makes an effort to present himself in a respectable way which is a form of making an impression

There are three categories of standard of living which are the Poor, Average and Rich. So they could fall into the average category and may even be rich because I don't know their stories

is it true he doesnt care, the same mark was in Nigeria i think 2 years ago an he was looking like the average white joe walking in the streets of yaba because of his public profile, i think the thing that matters to him the most is his security.

we dont know where dangote shops, i am sure he wouldnt care so much about wearing expensive suits, he is 60 years and wouldn't care alot about looking expensive but presentable, if he was young maybe but at 60, he has other priority, in terms of appearance, sure he will need to look presentable but not expensive for the image of his company.

people knows his is expensive already so it makes no sense impressing people that knows he is expensive.

Lol are you asking me? You said newly rich people care, yet MZ sported a horrible hairstyle that everyone was yabbing him for yesterday, you now said billionaires dont care.

Haha, youre now bringing in "60 years". What does it have to do with it? How do you know somebodys priority? Yes, my point was that he makes an effort to look presentable, even though he is wealthy. And that in itself is an impression on other people

yeah, newly rich people care about appearance alot, they are the one that show off alot, MZ is just one of the newly rich, he doesnt have that time to show off to you because of his type of job and also the press will make his life hell especially when the american media is anti wealth due to their preaching of mass inequality between the rich and poor and for MZ haircut, this is not the first time he has done similar haircut stunt like this, anytime he is going to speak to the senate, he does similar haircut stunt, the stunt is just to make people talk about him instead of the topic on ground which was political advertisement on facebook.

in respect to dangote, i am bringing up age because it matters, as a man gets older, he doesnt care alot about being expensive, it is young people who care about how expensive they look, as he gets older his priority is different from when young, this is just normal life changes, do you expect a 60 years old priority to be the same as a 24 years old child.? people change as they get older, the stuff that freaks them when young will not be the same stuff that will freak them when old.
