    We're just sharing our thoughts on society and not naming names. I don't see anything wrong with it.

    Which reminds me whenever I see a luxury car or luxury suv I always check the plate number. If it starts with a B, hindi mayaman may ari nun. Grey market yung vehicle. Import. Nagtitipid ang may ari pero gusto magyabang.

    Not that I can drive and buy a luxury car kahit B plate. Pero maging makatotohanan lang. Kung di kaya luxury cars, wag magpanggap.

    If I can't buy a Rolex, I won't get a class A Rolex from Greenhills. Mag Seiko na lang ako. (Pero Emperor Tuna Hehe)

    Yung crush ko kahit magdamit ng sako mukha pa rin mayaman. It's the way he carries himself. He speaks well and is very polite and refined. It's people like him I look up to. Everything he does shows how much class he has (eg always on time). And when he says something he sticks to it. Napaka rare na ng palabra de honor ngayon

    Majority of those in social media will only post good things about their life. This creates a virtual perfect life. There have been a lot of sociological analysis on this phenomenon. Everyone thinks others have a perfect life. Just look at the posts during Holy week. Everyone was enjoying their vacation. I have some friends who I found out went to Taiwan and Korea just to watch Coldplay. And if you don't have a very strong foundation and values, you'll feel your life is a trash unless you keep up with your friends. New car, new condo, new iPhone, new sneakers, new watch, out of the country vacation, Starbucks everyday, the list never ends. Hash tag blessed. Hash tag YOLO.

    The rich people I know, the really rich ones, simple lang pumorma. Low profile. So secure about their wealth they need not prove it to others.

    it's more than keeping up with the joneses

    it's the rise of the jejemon class and they far outnumber the sosy polite konyo class

    the Du30 vote demonstrates the REJECTION of the konyo class

    the jejemon class is transforming the socio-economic-political landscape

    I don't keep up with the Joneses although I go along with good practices such as staying fit and keeping yards/driveway trimmed and clean.

    The only things close to keeping up with the Joneses that I've seen among my neighbors are:

    1. The amount of Christmas lights and electric displays outside during the holidays.

    2. Someone bought a V8 pony car and now, fully half of the households on our street have at least one.

    I actually like the Pringles vegetable crisps more than the conventional potato chips.
