About this listen
When some people show off their wealth by adorning their bodies with glittering jewels, driving flashy cars, and going on expensive vacations, it sends out one message, that these fellows are not really rich, they may be owning only a few dented cars, and therefore trying to show off to their wealthy neighbors that they are equally rich and should be treated with the respect they deserve, they are weighing down their bodies with shiny jewels just to look like people they are not. if they were truly rich, they won't be showing off this way, very rich fellows never put their wealth on public display, in fact, they always try to hide it from others. Secondly, they could just be custodians, or stewards in possession of someone else's wealth, they try to make the most out of the glamour before the true owner returns, or thirdly they are buying time with their recently discovered treasure trove, they struck it rich so quickly and profited so immensely that the whole experience overwhelms them, they simply don't know where to start or what to do next, that’s why they dig their hands into their money bags, pull out a bundle of notes and throw them into the air with cash flying in all directions. This is their only way of celebrating success. Some people who were never raised in wealthy environments often behave very irrationally when they get their hands on a pile of cash that they might have never seen in their entire lives. Some may lose their moral compass and go places they have never been to before. Their demeanor changes, they become loud and harsh, especially to their old friends and family members. They start hanging around people they barely know.
There is nothing unfortunate like getting a lot of money that you don’t know how to spend. It would have been better for someone to remain poor than to instantly get rich and lose all that money in just a few weeks. Yes, these things do happen, there are stories of people who became millionaires through either winning a lottery or some other shady means, they go on to buy cool expensive stuff, travel around unnecessarily, and in just a short while all that money vanishes like morning fog, and the guy is back to square one, to the miserable place they started at before their lives instantly became a rollercoaster ride. They go back to their old quiet life in a worse condition than they were in before they acquired instant riches, now they are greatly depressed from the financial loss and probably deeply in debt. They had not invested even a single dime in that family business they had been planning to build for a very long time.
How come people have very good plans on how to spend their money and invest when they are completely broke, but once they get that cash in their hands, they somehow lose their common sense and go on a spending spree like there is no tomorrow. It's only after they have spent every single dime of their newly found wealth that their senses return to them, ''I wish I knew, I wish I had bought more useful and economic stuff, I wish I hadn't gone on that expensive vacation,'' I wish this, I wish that… are the only words stuck onto their lips. The old adage which says that, ''easy come easy go'' still remains relevant to this day.
