Building wealth requires a college degree and buying a house. Follow the buy, rehab, rent, repeat. That’s how my family built millions in real estate. We bought our house back in the early 80s in San Jose and we went to excellent schools and universities and my family took a risk buying house during a downturn. Basically, overtime, from 1997-2006 was a housing crash. People like us bought houses at that time. Then from 2013-2020 housing boom. And people like us made a fortune from renting out houses to people. Shelter is a need. And it is in short supply.

So many good points, tied together brilliantly. Judging from the comments, though, I think that "looking poor," while a catchy phrase here, might actually be better served as "looking unassuming" (as you said in the video)! People obviously change how they look based on their personal preferences and the context of their situation, right? I'm a freelance copywriter based in Japan, where suits, etc. are not so much a mark of wealth as they are part of the workday uniform. By wearing jeans and a blazer over t-shirts of varying quality, I'm not so much "looking poor" as distinguishing myself from the corporate system. And while I'm fine with THAT being low-key, especially because it's hard to actually write in a suit, there are some appearance-related things I'll definitely spend money on! My shoes for meetings in Tokyo, etc. should be immaculate. Also, I'm a just-turned-48-year-old man in an industry that prioritizes youth and creativity, so I'm definitely spending money on exercise, haircut, and skincare. Doing all that and not broadcasting it from the rooftops is your point, and one very well made.

At 55 & 62, married, we liive very well on 2k NET per month in an off-grid Calif cabin bought for 88k. Spent 50k remodeling. Our expenses: $1500 a month. I work Wed- Fri, two 18 hr shifts per wk for min wage yet paid to sleep 7-8 hrs a night. Hubby's jobs are: ✶ Grows fruit & vegetables. Milks the goat, cares for the hens, rabbits & ducks ✶ Gathers food bank expired food that can't be distributed+what recipients discard. Makes batches of tasty farmers cheese+ Omelettes for church meals ministry & ourselves. Old Organic veges from food bank go into our compost pile for the animals to feed on. ✶ Constructed a DIY Solar system which powers our car, home & bicycles 60% of the year. We E-Bike many places, weather permitting ✶ Developed a seep into a spring. The spring feeds into our house & fish pond. Now water is free! ✶ He does all our home maintenance spending little $ on home repairs, he's very creative & innovative ✶ He makes his home-made dog food out of discarded food bank mystery meat, crawdads we catch in summer, turkeys we buy in bulk around Thanksgiving & sometimes food bank meat (often it's pulled pork) & some expired eggs. We buy red meat organ meats to add, grow fruits & veges so our dogs food is Vet Approved. Fido is very healthy ✶ We have 8 Fixed Monthly Expenses: $85 prop tax, $125 WIFI/phone, $175 Transport (towing, gas, tires, tags) $150 Donation, $165 Pets, $100 Medical/Dental, Groceries cost about $550, Misc $150 = $1500 a month Fixed Expenses. ✶ For transparency sake, we get $23 a month in Food stamps. Also Medicaid would cover the first 4k deductible of our health/dental plans thru my employer so no out of pocket expenses, ever (except the $100 monthly premium). No debt. 55k IRA. I'll work until age 65

If you have a negative net worth then you shouldn't buy expensive clothes to pretend like you're rich. That is simply not financially responsible. You should save and invest your money instead. Then when you have a six figure financial net worth or higher, it won't be a problem to wear a $100 Polo instead of a $10 Polo. At this point, you can wear what you want. If you don't want to shave, get a hair cut, or wear clean properly fitting clothes, that's up to you, but don't dress like a bum just because of a KZitem video.
