I saw an article online that had a list of 10 habits that scream, I'm trying to look wealthy.

0:11.4

So I'm going to go through those today and give you my opinion.

0:14.1

And also, later, I'll share three proven steps that will actually help you become really wealthy, like in the real sense of the word,

0:21.9

which is key. All right, drop your reactions in the comments as we go and be sure to like,

0:26.9

subscribe, and share this video with a friend. All right, number one, the article says,

0:31.3

excessive displays of wealth. So luxury cars, flashy logos, high-tech gadgets. And it is kind of this idea that

0:39.4

like insecurity is loud and confidence is quiet. And so when you see people that are so big and so

0:45.9

out there with their money, usually it is a sign of like, okay, what are they trying to prove

0:51.3

maybe as a person and or are they just trying to prove that they are successful? And because of that, they may or may not even have the money, but they they trying to prove maybe as a person and or are they just trying to prove that

nice car or luxury stuff is not wealthy, right? Some of them are. But definitely more people

1:10.5

look more wealthy than they are

1:12.3

in today's world. Number two, constantly job hopping. So I thought this was an interesting point.

1:17.2

And so what this article was implying is that, you know, when you go job to job, you'll probably

1:21.0

get an increase of your salary. And so you're just doing that to continue to make more money

1:27.3

because of your lifestyle

1:28.3

creep versus just investing in like a stable job, you know, long term, which in today's

1:33.7

world is like five years. You know, that, again, it's like that stability aspect and growing

1:39.1

as you're growing within your job versus going job to job to get that hike. So I wouldn't have thought about this one, honestly, but I could see it because if you're

1:47.8

needing more money, like instantly because you are spending more than what you're making,

1:52.3

this could be a short-term fix.
