I feel jealous to my 'rich' friends :(?

Question

okay so i live in a quite rich-neighbourhood, lots of people there are rich. I can say i'm average. Sometimes i feel down looking at my friends, like they can have things I don't have such as SLR cameras, laptops, expensive clothes, big beautiful bedrooms. This brings me down and makes me inferior and I keep telling to myself I'm gonna be rich one day. and i will. but it hurts me when my friends keep showing off their expensive things. how do i get rid of this feeling?

Answer 8

I went to camp once with a bunch of wealthy kids once and I was middle class. At first I sort of felt out of place, but once you see them as who they are and not for what they have, it will click to you that it doesn't matter whether they have the six bedroom mansion or the new designer bag.

If they are able to accept you without it, then you should not feel jealous. I think you might feel jealous now, but it will phase out.
