Why do people show off their wealth?

Wealth show is a part of our life; no one can deny this fact. But why we do this, why we want others to look our assets and luxuries. We all know the reason but still we pretend others that this is just a casual display.

Do you think wealth show is a good practice, what is your motive behind showing off wealth to others, do we want to prove something to others, is this in human nature or only few people do such acts.

I have seen people spending mammoth money for small functions, there are people who spend all their life savings on their children’s marriage. This money can be utilized in much better ways, don’t you think functions can be made more economical and rest of the money can be saved for their future. The more you have the more you spend, or do you belongs to the same category who thinks that these occasions come only once in life so you must spend money with out any thoughts just to show off.



Why we always compare with others, don’t we have our own thoughts? Don’t we have our own liking and disliking, then why we always desire some good comments from others?

It might be in human nature, no one want to be seen down to others. In this present competitive world, every one wants to show their power, and power comes from money. Every one wants to have a special position in there society. Every one wants a special attention from others.

I am not blaming any one, this is our own fault, and we have started this trend. Most of us measures a person personality based on their wealth and money. However wealth show is not a good practice, wealth show is an artificial reverence, it doest not reflects any ones personality. If you think people will start giving you importance and respect based on your wealth, it is just your myth. People will always praise on your faces but it doest not mean that they have got influenced with your assets.



I don’t know if we all think in the same manner but one thing is sure there is a value to respect which money can not buy.
