I find it puzzling for myself as to why people need to show they have money by buying Mercedes car, boasting about their money ,tellin gyou what a great job they have , wearing expensive things, yet "yell " at people, insult people etc . Because they have money they think it is acceptable to do anything they want because they have a LAWYER TO PROTECT THEM. I DO NOT HAVE a lawyer who walks around behind me and cannot afford one anyways. I do not make my money for tripping up people and then displaying apublic image that I have money so becareful anrepect me because you don't know who I am.
Why is what the public thinks about you so important????
Why must I surround myself with important people to get ahead???
Is it true ...it is not wht you know but who you know that gets you ahead inlife???
How do I get to know these people so I can get ahead???

obviously you do not care for the finer things in life. It is clear that you are uneducated (or poorly educated) from your prodigious disdain for proper English. Please, learn to speak English before posting such inane questions. I believe that you are merely a jealous person who cannot afford a Mercedes-Benz S 500 (a real treat) and therefore resent all who drive them. In order to get to know important people, I suggest you get an education because you cannot go anywhere without that. You will be laughed out of the more elite circles of society with such an indolent and apathetic attitude toward the most important commodity of all: an ivy league education. I hope this helps you and I also hope that you can overcome your ignorance and fit in with today's social kings.

What makes you think they care what you or anyone else thinks? It's possible they just enjoy the luxury and comfort of a Mercedes, or they may enjoy the quality of some of the better things in life. Taking a lesson from people who are successful is always a good idea, but you won't get that unless you lose the envy.

I don't think that people who have money should treat other people with disrespect and I don't think other people should kiss their butt just because they have it.
Having money does not mean having an education and/or manners.
And NO you don't need people like that to get ahead! on the contrary!!!!

I agree with you....I don't care what anyone thinks of me because they don't pay my bills or anything....People have become so ignorant...that is why we have all these young girls with bulimia and all other sorts of eating disorders, is because society has made people think in a absurd way!! I think people should be who they are and not who others think they should be....

Image is important to people for first impression. If you aren't dressed properly, people may not have any interest in talking to you. I know that sounds horrible, but that is how it is. Our world has evolved that way, and that is just how we are.

yes. unfortunately it's true. thats how amerikkka was made, and how it will continue to function. it is totally WHO you know, not what you know. and... i mean, you can continue living your way, you just won't probably get the things in the end you are wanting. but if you do, more power to you.
