Rich black people, no offense, but why do they think buying bling makes them so darn cool?

Question

to me rich isn't about flauting your wealth, it's about an old pickup truck truck and enjoying your time.

Answer 1

white people like to flaunt their wealth too... look at liz taylor  w all her diamonds

Answer 2

They`re probably suffering from inferiority complex. & are trying to compensate for it that way.

Answer 4

why should it matter. what people choose to spend there money on is their business. thats like you asking if your rich why would you have a big house or buy a mercedes or BMW  and buying bling doesnt make them think their cool its just about them having it for themselves and knowing they can have it or buy it,everyone has their own way of doing things just like you and your pickup truck thats just what they enjoy

Answer 5

stop watching TV. you haven't seen all of us. (especially if you're speaking of the "really" rich blacks...)

yes, many of us where excessive jewelry, but it all plays a part in their "interests" and what they're influenced by.

Answer 6

Throughout history, riches, elites, kings, and queens all fancied expensive jewelry. It symbolizes your wealth, asset, and money, as a result your knowledge and intelligence. Now, I don't agree with this statement. But it is very true and it is very materialistic. But also, we are all materialistic too. Think about this: you said it is all about old pickup truck. Well this is materialistic as well, although not high in value. From perspective of tribal people or extremely poor people in some parts of the world, you fancying your old truck is also materialistic. They might wonder why you love your old truck when there is a cheaper thing called horse.

But as for bling bling, it is totally stupid.

Answer 7

I"m not offended by the "bling" earned by honest people. I AM totally offended by the huge gold chains and huge rings worn by drug dealers and pimps.....no matter what race.

Answer 8

Oh, I don't know. It seems to me that race has very little to do with a personal decision about how one enjoys his or her wealth.
