They tend to wear garish pocket squares, sometimes have high contrast colored bracelets, and tend to wear dress clothes in a casual way, e.g. leaving a dress shirt with three buttons undone.

Oh, some also wear a turbans.

Impulse purchases:

- Mcmansions
- 2-door sports cars
- fashion (outside of what is required for their job's dress code)
- jewelry
- excessive clubbing, I mean to the point where they're paying $1000 just to get in and $100/drink
- excessive drinking, this isn't something people with stable jobs can afford to do timewise

On the flip side, here's some good indicators of the opposite:

- model trains (especially with diy scenes)
- diy stuff in general
- a family, specifically children. This indicates that they likely have a college fund setup
- a marriage that is older than ten years
- shitty 4-door as their DD but moderately nice weekend car
- kit cars
- their own business
- renting out their house to someone else
- unironically attending things like local municipal planning meetings
- being a member of their local PTSA

Spinning Rims?

Extremely frivolous spending on depreciable goods. . Basically the behavior of almost every single retard who wins the lottery.

>>816950
I keep saying I'll do things the smart way if I win the lottery, but the damn thing never gives me the chance to prove it wrong. I only buy a ticket a month though

>>816959
you'll never win the lottery or make a fortune because you're the kind of sheep to buy lottery tickets, enjoy your stupid tax

>>816977
Nice dubs. Do you really think considering tr he already nonexistent odds I'll ever win that I'll stop from on anon pointing it out?

>>816985
hopefully but the fact you take pride in your bullheaded stupidity there is little hope for you

If they look poor physically (short, bald, ugly, crooked backs and teeth) they are 99% new money.

>>816998
but lots of old money people look creepy and decrepit as fuck.

>>817000

Old money always looks alpha as fuck compared to new money.

Maybe today it's less evident but it was much more so a few decades ago.

Also maybe they look creepy and decrepit while aged well in the 80s will the new money die of heart attacks at 50.

>>817003
as much as I want to call you a snob I realise you're probably not actually old money and more likely some lower or middle class wannabe

congratulations on finding a way to feel superior to people more successful than you, you little faggot.

I was just pointing a simple fact. I by no means was making fun of anyone. I don't hold any aristocratic titles or anything.

It's just obvious though. New money here mostly means people who got lucky in the post war boom. I.e. people who suffered through the war as children and the marks are still evident on them.

Pretty much anyone who goes out of there way to convince everyone that their money has not changed them. They are usually the kind of people who will buy a youtube ad to promote their self-help book full of useless commonsensical advice.

>>817022
No that's only those who make money out of their image. Nobody else gives a shit about the image of "I'm still the same even with money".

The nouveau riche are the ones obsessed with flaunting their wealth.

>>816895
Basically >>816919 this.

Nearly all trustfund babbys are nouveau riche by default.

Key word: lack of experience with wealth.

>>816940
"my parents made me go" isn't what irony means

>- unironically attending things like local municipal planning meetings
Attending municipal planning meeting gives you contacts. Too many people don't know that those meetings are unofficial business networks. Also kek @ two door sport car. Too many new rich buy dozens of these useless cars.

Take the amount you spend on ticket a month, multiply it by 12, multiply it by amount of years your think you'll live for. That's the amount of money you could've saved and actually invested into something and maybe doubled or trippled it and make even more money with it. Instead you choose to shower this money for a chance out of a billion to win something.
