I’m telling you, wealth is wasted on the wealthy.
They make all the good stuff super expensive with the idea that only the rich will enjoy it: like college, walkable cities, healthcare, vacations, art, learning artistic skills, decent fashion, healthy food, gyms, culture, etc…and they end up getting high off their own supply of proleslop and do shit like this in order to make themselves look poor.
The rich are intelligent enough to recognize good taste and make it expensive…but why do they make this country so fucking ugly and live in the ugly-ass, car-dependent boonies?

Eh, a lot of rich people things (especially their interior design) are really gaudy and ugly, it really depends on the fancy thing I guess.
Oh don’t get me wrong, the wealthy are super tacky. I just mentioned that part because all the objectively beautiful, good things (or the closest there is to it) in the US is ALWAYS the most expensive.
But the wealthy have this weird quirk of indulging in some hideous shit, and that’s what I mean by them getting high off their own supply. They reserve some things as proleslop, ugly disposable clothing, disgusting ‘food’, ugly irrelevant suburbs in bumfuck nowhere, and porky actually likes them.
I’m just wondering why the stuff I like that is also not to porky’s taste (and get called gay for liking by normies and porky alike), is also stuff that the wealthy gatekeep for only them and jacks up the price so as they can only be enjoyed by other rich people.
many of these dumb fucks go on cruises. Google “cruise ship interior”, you wont find anything more tacky and cheap anywhere else, 13k tickets per person for 8 days on average. Yeah good taste my ass.
God I still remember all the boomers yammering on about their cruises to me when I was a bartender and don’t even get me started on the their little tantrums when covid kept them from their floating petri dishes
I mean, there’s a difference between having a lot of money and being “wealthy.” This sounds like an old man complaining at clouds, but look at all the rich kids or influencers decked out in Gucci and yeezys and LV. Everyone knows they have money, but no one thinks they have taste.
Billionaires and politicians wear the blandest bullshit. A slight step up from being a billboard, but no one is giving style points to Zuckerberg lol. It seems like the richer you become, the less you care about brands and looking rich. But that comes with an overcorrection where you don’t give a shit about anything but numbers.
Zuckerberg also still wears stupidly expensive clothing. It just looks plain. I get the power move he does, I like to employ that one myself to lanyards and suit people, but wearing a $800 grey hoodie that looks like a $25 grey hoodie seems even dumber to me than wearing the $800 gucyeelvly shit.
