How to Flex

You make $100k more than those assholes. Why would you give a flying fuck about what they think of you?

for better or worse, im gonna give you actual advice for what you're looking for cause im also vain as shit and drunk. buy a 10k+ watch thats a brand theyve never heard of (vacheron constantine, limited edition omega, jaeger lecoultre, A. Lange & Söhne, etc.) This will not make you any closer with your friends, but it will give you the effect youre looking for. dont post cringy instagram pictures, thats for insecure girls 

Net worth is not equal to self worth.

I guess this is why they have looked down on you. I've had dickhead highschool mates, but I don't have any need to impress them, our lives have diverged. I have a old high school friend who posts all his watches hundreds of thousands worth on IG, but everyone knows he is just a loney guy. How about you treat you family, friends, and colleagues well, go out and treat them to a nice dinner or save up for something memorable. That's more impressive than anything, what's the point of a chunky salary when you are the dickhead and alone?

I know this is extremely juvenile and petty. Yes I know I am pretty shallow for caring so much.

Basically I want to flex and show my old friends from high school and my hometown I make a lot of money. They don't understand all the work it takes to get into IB, but everyone gets the dollars and cents. A lot when to "better" universities and they would talk a lot of shit on my college. Now they are making max like 60k and I'm pulling in 160k as a first year. Basically they looked down on me for years, and now their yearly salary is my bonus. Luckily I have a dead social media account where all my old friends follow me, so can post something obnoxious without it spilling over into my current circle. Thinking about posting how "blessed I am to be making it in America and NYC where I am on track to break (whatever value) in my first year". 

More of a rant than anything else I guess. Just wanted to get this off my chest. 

Damn dude maybe you should’ve “when to” a better college how much copium are you on rn… this is just sad considering those people are still living in your head

Ironically the best way to make them jealous is just to live your life, and be generous with your money and buy them a really nice steak dinner. This shows that 1. you can afford the dinner 2. you are well off that you can BUY other people nice dinners and 3. live comfortably to care about other people.

But this doesnt work if you are only there to flex. Just live a little and relax and have a generous attitude.

Some people can make millions and still be mentally broke. Trust me, it's always very obvious who these people are. You will not come off as cool, your true intentions will be apparent. I'd suggest working on being less self-conscious my friend

You need to do some inward soul searching. Not gaslighting you but as someone who's a good 10-12 years older, I can tell you that winning in life hinges on mental fortitude and focus. To succeed you need drive, direction and energy and expanding those resources on some petty flexes through life -because btw that won't be the first or last flex- will just have you chasing your tail. Good luck
