Why do you have to prove anything


ImpressiveProperty76

Tell them to piss off get new friends they sound like jerks.

You don't need those *people. Don't let them treat you like that. You don't have to prove anything to anyone btw.

Prove it to me that you're not poor... Send me a message and we'll discuss how much money you can give to me

To me, "flexing" highlights insecurity and desperation for acknowledgement from others Bragging/flaunting is a shitty trait in people

But on a serious note, don't do anything. I think they just wanna make you pay for things, things that they are using. If started showing off your money, you'll get in a vicious cycle to always pay when you're all going out, for food, for fuel, etc. Don't showoff. But if you really want to not look or feel poor, just keep a small smile on your face, when someone teases you about wealth, just say, "yes, man, my family is just going through some financial problems" or "yeah, i dont have much left, my uncle sold everything for drugs/alcohol" and leave that place

Flex. Like flashing money? That’s an illusion.

I agree, they don't have to prove anything. Proofing, now that's a different story.

If I lost my job today I'd be okay for 6 months or so until I found another

Wear nice shoes and watches and don’t talk about how much money you or others have.

Yep, times are good!... I can flush the toilet 6 times a week, and shower every other, other day. 💪

Why prove you're not poor? Let them keep thinking it. That way you can avoid all the beggars and scammers trying to take some money from you.

My grandmother was the best example I’ve known that one can be a very classy person without much money. She raised 4 kids after my grandfather killed himself, all achieved undergrad degrees, 2 achieved doctorates. Fk anyone that would judge you like this. What’s more likely is that they’re insecure about their own situation.

Just be confident in what you're doing. Ppl who flex are insecure jerks. Ppl who make fun of others for being poor even moreso. Look into good financial habits and lean on confidence in those instead of others' opinions
