Billionaires are not like you or me, but it’s really important for them that you think they are…
So important in fact that some of them are now spending millions of dollars every year to PR agencies to spread the message that they are just regular people that drive regular cars, eat at regular restaurants, and live in regular homes. But in the age of flex culture why are these people trying so hard to look normal?
The now convicted fraudster Sam Bankman Fried once had billions of dollars of customer funds at his disposal to live a lavish life in the Bahamas. In the early days of FTX Fried and his co-conspirators reportedly drove around in the expensive sports cars typical of crypto bros.
According to evidence presented during his trial, SBF would later sell these cars and advise other executives at FTX and Alameda to do the same because it didn’t fit with the image of the company that they were trying to present to customers and investors.
SBF’s shitty Toyota Corolla that paid influencers made such a big deal of was about as authentic as the companies internal accounting department.
The car, the haircut and the wrinkled haircut were more carefully managed than customer funds.
The group did this because they knew that the image of a boy genius that didn’t care about luxuries or power would be appealing to people looking for an honest place to keep their funds.
SBF and the rest of the gang were all frauds, but putting a lot of effort into crafting a folksy image is done by most prominent business leaders for three simple reasons that are mostly bullshit. If you know these strategies, you will be able to see through what is little more than personal marketing. The first reason that they do it is because even if they AREN’T running a fraud, acting like an everyman is still gets people to give them what they want.
Stealth wealth is when rich people buy products that are of high quality but does not flaunt their wealth.
They do this because they don’t want the attention and problems that come along with people knowing they are rich.
Billionaires doing a Bloomberg or NAS Daily interviews featuring their basic car and geeky wardrobe in NOT the same thing as stealth wealth! It’s not stealth wealth, so let’s call poverty peacocking and it’s a great move for their personal brand and any companies they represent.
Humble CEOs are the new fashion, the worlds biggest companies are run by men who wear hoodies and turtlenecks instead of tailored suits and other business leaders are trying to emulate that trend because investors like it. If business leaders very publicly give up flashy luxuries it also sends the message that they will be frugal running their business and the data actually backs this up.
According to a study conducted by the National Bureau of Economic Research in 2012 CEO’s and CFO’s who were not frugal in their own spending were more likely to have instances of insiders perpetuating fraud and were more likely to push equity-based incentives to increase their own income. The study separated personally frugal and flashy executives by looking for purchases like a personal car that was worth over seventy-five thousand dollars or a boat that was over twenty-five feet.
Buffett does own an old beat-up car, but he is usually driven around in a fleet of suburban’s with his security team, Zuckerburg wears the same grey shirt every day, but they are custom made by Brunello Cuccinelli, Musk does rent a tiny home next to the SpaceX factory but the Wall Street Journal pointed out that he spends most of his time in an eight thousand square foot [8,000 Sqft] twelve million dollar [$12,000,000] mansion and all of these men fly private. They are welcome to these luxuries; it is their money, but there are still two more reasons why they try so hard to pretend that they don’t exist.
So it’s time to learn How Money Works to find out why billionaires spend millions, to try and convince us that they spend nothing.

    Most of the ethanol in the body is broken down in the liver by an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), which transforms ethanol into a toxic compound called acetaldehyde (CH3CHO), a known carcinogen. However, acetaldehyde is generally short-lived; it is quickly broken down to a less toxic compound called acetate (CH3COO-) by another enzyme called aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH). Acetate then is broken down to carbon dioxide and water, mainly in tissues other than the liver Not done in the gut …..

    Even with the right technique and assets some investors would still make more than others. As an investor, you should've known that by now that nothing beats experience and that's final. Personally I had to reach out to a stock expert for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to $35k, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I'm buying again.

Claiming that I got more money than he did as he didn’t even take a salary from the company. But I could see that his car had 7000 dollar rims. Something I could never afford. He acted poor to not have his workers demand more.

    @@broskibrewer2187 People actually could substantially lower their costs with relatively minor lifestyle changes. A big one that people aren't really aware of is eating out regularly. If you are willing to make your own food, you will spend far less on groceries compared to eating out. The food will also typically be better for you as well. Even something like having a daily coffee at starbucks adds up quickly. I'd say some really big ones though for especially poor people would be cigarettes, alcohol, lottery tickets, tattoos, etc. Basically, things that not only cost a lot of money but bring no real value to your life or possibly even detract from it. The thing about income is there is only so much you can realistically increase this. You are only able to work so many hours per week without risk of burning out. Most jobs also pay relatively similarly until you get into high paying jobs that require a lot of formal education.

But, most people can't afford that, can't take that risk. A young woman whose father was a doctor (my family doctor, actually) said to me, at another college, 'Just have your parents put a house in your name, get some friends to move in to pay rent...and by the time you're done of your degree you'll have house that's a few years paid off...' Yeah, my parents couldn't afford that risk. Another young woman I met at a Joe job was complaining that the student loan people wouldn't give her anything. Another guy who had gone to college and I were listening. Her parents had outright bought a house in her name...something about avoiding taxes or something related. The other guy 'Well, that's why. You own a house...so they figure you don't need a loan for school like a lot of other students do...'

    @@cameronwixcey9692 the more important point is that their wealth is a symbol FOR the dictator in general. The wealth of these blinged out "oligarchs" (quotes since it also applies to other kinds of political nobility) is not their own, but rather on loan from the dictator, and them displaying it proudly is a big part of why they have it. What does Putin have to gain by having somebody with a lot of wealth other than him? The image of success coming from their loyalty. Much like our billionaires like to sell the image of coming from poverty and pulling themselves up by their bootstraps to have people work hard for no gain, oligarchs earned their wealth through loyalty and instead of needing to seem humble with it, they need to show it off to entice others to maintain that sense of loyalty. They can simply sell the image that the reason they aren't oligarchs is because they aren't loyal enough, no need to sell them a bullshit idea like saving money and working hard matters when the purpose is to drive people to do things like join the military to fight and die in the wars. Dictators need large armies of loyal soldiers to control their populace and prevent foreign coups, so just like the knighting and squire systems of the middle ages, promoting loyalty is the game over there. So the main accessory to their wealth is functionally different, their blatant glam is an important part of the wealth for them, while our billionaires here have to sell the image of capitalism being "fair and balanced" when it's not.

It's a common tendency: the affluent aim to appear less privileged, while those with fewer resources strive to present themselves as more prosperous than they truly are. I believe this trend persists across various age groups and social circles, where there's a limited range allowing individuals to authentically represent themselves. Beyond this narrow band, people tend to exhibit a desire to emulate the opposite end of the spectrum. Interestingly, the poor actually want to be rich but the rich don’t actually want to be poor 😅

It's not fair to say that he's lying about the way he uses his wealth, because he doesn't HAVE to tell us about his security arrangements (no one walks around in the hood with a sign telling all the brothas that he's strapped).

The ruling class go to great lengths to portray themselves as ordinary working class folks. The issue with this is that the ruling class and working class have entirely different roles in society. The ruling class’s job is to prepare themselves to make important decisions that will dictate the outcome of many people’s lives. However, since our ruling class is obsessed with seeming ordinary, they spend most of their time filling up their schedules with busy work, and thus are inadequately prepared to execute proper discernment in tough situations. Historically, the ruling class would spend most of their time studying, reading classical literature, philosophy, and strategizing.

First, it's not a good idea to let everyone know about your wealth, and there is also no need to show-off anything as they are already very established. I do know many ultra-rich people who do "peasant" things (like flying economy), but in generally most ultra-rich do enjoy wealthy lifestyle, but in private with other rich people.

    I'm pretty sure Warren Buffett doesn't live in that small old house. Security reasons alone will not make that idea possible. He keeps it for the show, but most likely lives some place else in a bigger nicer residence.

    Pretty simple when you have enough money you realize it's pointless; Only to ultimately present a detrement to the consumer. It's not the fact they're trying to look poor, it's just our culture wants to buy the latest and greatest to "look wealthy." Why purchase wealth when you have it.

    the "meta" problem is that, once a period of shortage kicks in, richer people have to use a justifiable story why their children eat and have clothes, and yours don't. The wealthier in prior ages used the divine right of kings, hard work, God's blessing (or curse), morally upright behavior, Christianity (or Islam, or whatever), Greek culture (or Roman, or Chinese, or whatever), charitable giving, etc... the list of justifications is as extensive as the human imagination. But in an age of government intervention in everything, well, what the government gives, the new government can take away. That nice house on the hill can be yours if you and your friends just get into positions of authority. "new boss, same as the old boss..." but all the pretty shiny things get new owners.

Even the internet we use today has its origins in government partnerships with public universities.

    I think out of all of these only Warren Buffet legitimately can claim not to flaunt his billions. He may have started this trend of looking normal and just being a billionaire. Hes too old to gaf about Lambos and mansions. But i can almost guarantee he enjoys looking at the number he has in his accounts. The others attempt to make their schemes by trying to play the Buffet role.

    The bit about driving regular cars makes sense no matter how rich they are if they are the type to drive themselves, the most popular car among millionaires are the likes of Honda Civic no matter if they can easily afford supercars. They blend in, they are relatively comfortable and has decent standard of amenities and function but still simple and easy to use, cheap to drive, insure, crash and fast to repair. Many expensive supercars are actually uncomfortable, impractical and if something breaks it they fly the whole thing back to factory to fix. So even those who are into owning supercars still keeps a honda civic and drive that 90% of the time.
