My controversial list of things people do to look rich that actually backfire HERE'S A LIST Kiki Astor Author, ex rich person Amateur sociologist DO TO MAKE THAT ACTUALLY MAKES THEM LOOK POOR. AND NO, WEARING THINGS WITH LOGOS ON THE LIST BECAUSE IT'S OBVIOUS. NAME DROPPING. OBJECTS. PLACES. PEOPLE. IMPECCABLY MAINTAINED LUXURY AUTOMOBILE. DOCUMENTING LUXURY EXPERIENCES, WHETHER IT'S A MANICURE, RESTAURANT, SHOPPING TRIP, OR TRAVEL. REFUSING TO REPEAT OUTFITS USING WORDS LIKE "HIGH VALUE@, "ELITE" AND "HIGH STATUS". WEARING A DESIGNER WRIST STACK. DECORATING THEIR HOME HOTEL LOBBY. CARRYING A BAG THAT COST MORE MATCHING THEIR OUTFIT TO THEIR PARTNERS' AND DOCUMENTING IT. TRYING TO LOOK EXPENSIVE. ANYWAY, DARLING, I HOPE THIS HELPED.
