Well, all I can say is.....................
It's not a mortal sin to be rich, baduy, or ugly. But, money talks regardless.
Huh? What is being baduy, anyway?
Being rich and still be "baduy"
Being rich and to be ugly

Tacky or poor taste.
There are a lot of rich people that aren't necessarily good looking but are mistaken to be just because they have good hair, skin, teeth and clothes. All of which could be bought. But if you try to picture them with bad hair, ugly skin, crooked teeth and shabby clothes that's when you'd realize that they're not attractive after all.
So I think being rich and ugly is a bigger mortal sin 'coz you have the means to improve what can be improved (Si Manny Pacquiao lang talaga yung hopeless case). You can't buy taste/personal style/legacy that's why being "nouveau rich" is often used as a derogatory term. Taste is something that you are either born with or acquired over a long period of time. That's why there are more "rich and baduy" than "rich and ugly".
here's how one writer describes Lucio Tan
...a tycoon who's never quite looked like one... Mr. Tan habitually dresses in the simple barong Tagalog shirt of the Philippines, a loose-fitting soft white shirt, and is often ribbed in the local media for wearing cheap pants and white nylon socks.

I don't think any of those things is a "mortal" sin... but if I had to choose... well... poor taste is poor taste... but ugliness is all in your head...![]()
Ang pagbalik ng comeback...
Well, I've never really thought about what's bad or poor taste because no one person has the same exact tastes. Same thing with "ugly". Where is the line between ugly and beautiful? I don't want to sound politically correct because I'm not. But, these concepts are really strange to me. When I think of rich people, they're either snooty or down to earth. Their appearance or tastes don't really come into play because they vary from person to person.
sticking only to the topic at hand, i think being rich and having no sense of style/fashion is worse. it is, after all, easier to change clothes than getting your face touched up.
merong mga madaming pera pero simple lang manamit, siguro nakasanayan na nila ang ganun kaya marami man silang pera ngayon nangunguripot na silang gumastos pa sa sarili...
