      The key word is \"HUMBLE\" and sometimes it is good to act blurr too.

      Not sure why some mums like to show off so much :? Wearing big big diamond rings to school orientation, etc and wearing branded t-shirts with big big logo and same for the bags too. Huh.

        Another example...


        My child is so gooooooooooooood in everything...so no choice gotta let him/her learn everything...

        When people say that, they sound a bit ignorant of what it means to be really good(because I know of people whose kids' achievements are like that of 2ppaamm's), so it comes across as bragging with ignorance and become laughing stock instead. I would rather say 'interested' in many things.

          I think if they really want to show off because it is matching to their lifestyle, they also have to do so appropriately as in only in the same like-minded company of the rich, not during an orientation la... so hilarious to stand out like a sorethumb... :lol:

          Anyway, truly well-off people are usually under-stated even if they wear branded stuff, i.e. you cannot see the brand but you can see the quality they wear.

            woah, having unfriendly face sure is good. I dun get such news. And why would people share siblings pay packet?


            Agree, people who are truly rich (in talent or material) won’t need to show off…somehow it will just show without rubbing in pp’s face.

              I agree, the well-off ppl can be very humble and down to earth.

                People who are rich will go for quality…they don’t wear clothes which scream the brand. Rich people are usually humble and it’s very pleasant to talk to them. Those who talk big are usually empty vessels.


                Hquek,
                Not sharing siblings pay packet, but boasting how much their siblings earn. :!:

                      I think I need to have amnesia if I meet such people. This way, I won’t remember anything they say and won’t irritate me as such. Agree ?


                      If that diamond ring is such a problem, solve it by donating it to Ren Ci. The patients there will be very grateful. Honestly.
