My question is are people actually that rich or they just to like to show off ?

There are places you will visit in my country and you will argue that nobody is poor. These places accommodate the wealthy and influential people. You would see luxury houses and cars littered everywhere and the bars and shops will be filled with people celebrating and smiling.  But a few distances out of these places will show you the true picture of the country.

The UK has a resilient economy and the standard of living is high but there are still people that are struggling financially. Recently the UK fell into recession and there have been labour crises such as doctors' strikes and so on. I have some friends in the UK and they are having a better life than when they were still in our country but they complain of overwork. Some of them have to work for long hours for them to survive. One of them recently fainted in his place of work because he had to work in more than one place to support his family.  We might not be having the best of life in my country, but you have a chance to spend time with your family because you don't need to overwork to survive.
