Chicken rice is expensive, regardless you have $2 mio or $5 mio. Will you pay $10 for coffee if you have a lot of money, or you would you feel that you're taken for a carrot?

I do know of very 'rich' people who keep flaunting what they have on social circle, social media but privately, they are very very, cash poor and owes a lot of money.

Some cannot even sleep well for years.

What is worst is telling other people who are poorer then themselves to contribute.

U see him from kopitiam u think he is just those typical uncle sit at kpt scold government

Its those middle income and low income ppl like to act rich, wear gold chain, wear rolex to show people they are something

My friend told me that his contractor boss looked like some average uncle with backpack when he liaise with him.
Later, he learnt from the indian supervisor that the backpack uncle is damn rich but super low profile.
