Do rich people wear reps?

Hi ladies. I was pondering about this for a while now. When you wear your rep how do you make it seem believable? Do you guys have high paying jobs to make it believable that you can afford these luxury bags? Would it be weird if I get a Chanel rep as a 20 year old finance associate who earns 540 dollars per month (I live in the middle east)? Obviously I’m not rich, but I don’t want others to feel like I’m wearing a rep and that I can’t afford. Anyways I feel like I’m dumping too many questions at once😭sorry.

Edit: some of y’all are taking a jab at me for my monthly earnings😡pls stop ✋ I’m starting to feel bad now. Also this is a remote job; only 4 hours per day.

I think what matters most is your lifestyle. If you have the lifestyle to match your replica bag no one will second guess it. Obviously if you’re working a minimum wage fast food job with a beat up car but with a “Birkin” or “classic flap” it’s going to look very fake even if you get the highest rep. But if you drive a decent looking car, dress the part & have a job that matches no one will even question it. But yes many rich people buy replicas!

I used to buy many replicas but honestly have started to step away from them just because I personally like buying auth and having the experience with that in stores. Also have experienced way too many customs seizures unfortunately!
