It definitely would. My self-esteem would practically be non-existent. Heck, even just having the status, and not necessarily all the money in the world would be great.

It's one thing if your debt:income is really good and you can easily afford the luxuries. I come from a blue collar region that is high on the pretentiousness list. That said, I know a lot of people there that spend a ton of money for appearance and they're only making $30k-$40k/yr. Sure, they look awesome. But they're also in terrible shape financially and it eventually comes to light once the well dries up.
We've got some family members like that...

Trying to "roll deep"..........

They do stuff, have cars, eat out all the time, always have the latest gadgets, latest clothes. Check

Mountains of debt. Check.


Expanding the 401k, living below your means, not getting stuck on all of the "things"

That's how you should try and live... I get it, it's hard... trust me... I just went to BestBuy a day or two ago, just so I could smell the electronic gadgets and drool over the 70" UHD 4k tvs.

Yeah... maybe you could sell them one of your knife sets you're always posting pics of....

I don't think the money and all that matter in my age group(20s) now days. Younger women don't look for that kind of stuff. They are just looking for guys that have social status(in a band, popular around town, etc). That's it.

aww

I am pretty sure these men in the video don't need money or status to change their luck. I am sure they have no problems finding girls who genuinely love them. Plus <they will all go to heaven because they are already in hell>.

If it wasn't for my financial status, I don't think could have dated the gorgeous women I've dated in the past.

Having $$ is definitely a force xxxmultiplierxxx in the dating game.

Looks play a major role too. A girls in their 20's obsess over good looking guys. "he's so cute" lol

Their wives couldn't get a rich guy. That's the explanation.

I don't think every woman prioritizes money, but those who are attractive enough to have the option of dating rich guys usually end up doing so. Visit any welathy neighborhood and you'll see that the wives living in it are HOT.
