Even though I'm not rich, I do agree with what you're saying. If I had that much money, I would want to be able to enjoy it and not have to hide.

If you have to worry about the consequences of showing your wealth to the public, then what's the point? That's not to say you shouldn't be careful, but things like driving nice cars or dressing up may be risky.

Depends where you go, but this is often very true. Think Miami, Manhattan, LA, Aspen, Nashville, Denver, etc. And almost every state has several enclaves of luxury and posh living.

Exactly. There's a reason why many of our fellow KZreadrs keep bashing America; it's where the money is at.

I'm not into Porsches or Lamborghinis, I'm into 4x4 off-road SUVs, so roads are almost a detail for me. The problem of showing off with too much wealth - especially in a poor country - is that it sparks greed in bad people around oneself and relatives, as far as robbery and kidnapping are concerned, especially where the local judicial systems are contaminated by marxistoid-criminal-lover-freaks. So seems to me the main problem is the culture of impunity rather than poverty. Bad guys are emboldened by it and it is pointless to list on which countries this is happening more and more. I lived in places such as Oman and never felt safer. Why would that be? 🤔

Exactly. Someone who knows they aren't going to get punished for killing someone is just more likely to pull the trigger than someone who fears the justice system. Police aren't incentivized adequately in many emerging countries. Few risk their lives for a few hundred bucks a month.

Well... driving a Porsche in any other country but Germany on public roads/highways is fairly pointless. Having a Porsche in Singapore at least is more sensible in the sense that if you`re forced to cough up the cash for the CoE, you might as well register a Porsche for it instead of a Corolla.

@@NomadElite The Autobahn seems safer than most of the US highways. For example, the trucks/lorries have to stay in the right lane and also to get a drivers license in Germany you have to do more than just pass an easy test and they are very strict about if you get any points and taking your license away.

Why you didn't quantify in numbers what do you mean by "rich"? In India getting 1000 euros a month is considered upper middle class rich would be 2000euro a month, can you please mention what monthly income and saving in assets would you consider entry level rich or upper middle class according to you
