Why do poorer people like "rich people" more?

From a psychological point of view, the more a person lacks something, the more he wants to show off something.

Sometimes think about it, in life, you can always meet all kinds of "decent and miserable" people. Obviously, I have no money, and I can't even guarantee my basic life, but I have to face it bravely.

Characters like these are more likely to be seen in a "poor person" than in others.

First of all, why are people more respected the poorer they are?

Many psychologists and psychological research institutions at home and abroad often put "face psychology" first when studying the psychology of many Chinese people. The corresponding face is the lining.

The psychology of face can be reflected in any aspect. For example, in interpersonal communication, if you don't give this person face, you may make this person hate you.

A group of you sit at the same table to eat. You say hello to everyone and give everyone a glass of water, but only one person is left. This person will definitely feel: You didn't give me face, I remember you.

Next time, if you need any help from this person, this person will embarrass you because you have embarrassed him in the past.

Maybe it was because there were too many people at that time and your memory was wrong, but you forgot to greet this person accidentally.

For most people, the most important thing is face. You're embarrassing this person, which is actually a particularly dangerous thing to do.

During the Spring Festival, things like "face" can be seen more clearly.

During the Spring Festival, many people return to their hometowns from other places to work, so many people drive luxury cars, wear famous brands, big gold necklaces and small watches. On the surface, I have a special landscape and face.

However, judging from the "lining", these people have neither bought a house, their children are still studying, and they do not have much savings.

This is also a special expression of pride. It seems that the more you pretend to be rich, the more you will be admired by outsiders, and the more outsiders will think: Ah, this person is doing well outside and has returned home gloriously.

In fact, the person may even have to borrow the down payment on the child's house.

Many people are "saving face" and have reached a particularly extreme and twisted state. In fact, this is a very bad phenomenon. From a psychological point of view, a person often gives the outside world a wrong impression by "pretending to be rich". The more he pretends to be rich, the prouder they are and the more they feel others admire him.

Parental rivalry can spill over to their children. A person's life will only be extremely tiring when he cannot sort out his thoughts, and face is more important than anything else.

Is there anyone around you who is very poor, but loves to show off and is very proud?
