In my opinion, expensive clothes and goods can be a choice, but it is not an indicator to see whether someone is rich or poor. even many rich people choose a simple lifestyle, while others may dress luxuriously to express themselves. Therefore, to judge someone poor or rich is not measured by what they wear.
The measure of someone's rich or poor is not on what they wear, but rather on what they have in their lives and of course this will lead more to the amount of assets and also their power through business so that the person can truly be called rich by others. Because the one who judges the richness or poverty of each person is other people, not themselves because if someone who claims to be rich to other people openly, it could be that he is not actually rich. So the benchmark for this must depend heavily on other people's assessments based on what other people have seen of what the person already has, not on what the person wears on his body.
If what we measure is who is richer then of course appearance cannot be used as a benchmark for who is rich and who is poor, and in the picture we see that rich people look simple while poor people look luxurious, but that's only a part, because I would say that there are also rich people who look luxurious. So I think for the matter of appearance it depends on each person's taste, maybe there are people who think that by looking luxurious it makes people praise them and they feel proud of it even though their appearance drains their pockets especially for poor people. On the other hand I think regardless of whatever it is the point is if you do have a less than good financial situation then balance your lifestyle with the finances you have, simply don't buy something you don't really need, and it's better to prioritize something more important.
