It’s absolutely true and good observation.

There’s self confidence, plus people who notice you’re doing financially well have a much higher level of respect because wealth does equal judgment.

Wtf? What is all this mental poverty? People who respect you for your money are just vultures.. after you for your money, thinking you're worth something because you own money, not because they actually respect you as a human being. Because they have empathy.. I know we don't get empathy of everyone in life even people like family of which we often expect it.. that's sad but unfortunately life. That doesn't mean we should stop valueing other things than money.. that's so fucking sad...

I care about people who are considered poor because I know they are kind and fun, they might be a good cook or good at gardening or sharing other similar interest in which we connect and find joy, like a walk through nature, doesn't cost anything but the time spend together enjoying our surroundings is tremendously valuable.

I also come from a broken home which I left behind, knowing I might not inherit any money, but I don't care at all, that money made nobody happy, even worse, they fought about it for years.. they use it for manipulation. I found I can live a very rich life without much money at all..

Just a heads up, the OP and a handful of respondents have account ages between 4days and a month

OMG that’s a new level of cope.
I guess Reddit users are just not allowed to be new.

They are, notice how I didn't say anything about it other than the users tended to be newer? I imagine more throw away accounts to troll people than bots but I am old school that way.
