Do you tell anyone in real life about your wealth?
I've been trying to hold it in but I've told some of my coworkers about how much money I have and they've began treating me differently.

I tell everyone that I'm unemployed and poor and then ask if they can loan me some money.

But don't you ever feel the need to display your wealth? Or is it the poorfag in me talking

I worked and saved the vast majority of my income then invested it into shitcoins and ETFs. No real secret

Salescucking and I dont really have any hobbies

>> No.14120265

If I somehow managed to make millions I would just reopen my social media and post pictures of myself on lux vacations and eating at high end restaurants. Then if they ask how I do it I tell them I just afford it with my McWage job and it's really not that expensive. And then when they try to do it themselves they go broke.

This is me 100% will actually show people my bank account balance usually like $12 or something. When I’m reality I’m amassing huge wealth in assets.

The friends that stick around after you say your poor they are the real ones

also never bring money into friendships, that just ruins it.

I disagree. I lost all my 'friends' after I cashed out with crypto. That's a good thing. It means that in addition to everything else that money is good for, it also has a 'mirrors for vampires' effect of revealing who is truly your friend and who isn't. Want to know who your real friends are? Make a shitload of money and see who still wants to hang out with you. Getting real money means your fake friends slough off.

I don't hide that I'm wealthy if a subject related to money comes up, but I never randomly tell people I'm rich or how much money I have. E.g.
> Me to friend: I'm thinking about buying an apartment
> Friend: Oh really, Have you talked to your bank yet?
> Me: I think I'll just buy the apartment outright without a loan
> Friend: Oh wow, how much money do you have saved?
> Me: A decent chunk ;)
And I don't say more than that.

I mean I disagree with the quoted premise, about never bringing money into friendships.

Definitely bring money into friendship so you can find out who your real friends are.
