RE: The Idea Of Wealth Is Now Better Than Wealth
There is also the cultural aspect to consider when examining the flaunting of wealth. For example in scandinavia flashy or arrogant displays of wealth is uncommon and frowned upon (in does get replaced though by virtue signaling and other nasty stuff). This is quite different to what is the mainstream cultural norm in the us I suppose.
I do understand that, I can’t speak for scandanavian cultures never been there and don’t know what it’s about but I’m pretty sure there’s enough westernized millennials following the whole look at my shoes, look at my travels
I think virtue signaling would also be a display of affluence since it’s more of a bourgeois ideal! The poor aren’t really worried about misappropriation of culture they tryna eat, well at least that’s what it is for me
