Why is it that ???
 

I have been in this industry since 1994 and I've seen em come and I've seen em go.. Some of us have actually made money here and some of us just talk shit.

My question is this. Why do so many GFY'ers feel the need to show their new houses, cars, etc...

When I started making money I started to shut my mouth about it. The more I made, the quieter I became. Is it just me, or are most of the people around here full of shit?

Why would you spend time on a messageboard gawking about your material aquisitions? Do you not have elite friends to share this with or is it just the people on a messageboard that you don't even personally know that are the only ones you have to share it with?

It just seems strange to me that all of these ferrari buyers have nowhere else to show their personal gains with... and why they would bother sharing them here? Kinda smells like poop to me.

If you feel the need to share it on a messageboard with virtual aquaintances, ...why bother buying the shit in the first place...if you really did in the first place?

Is it just me?

its just you...

I second that motion :pimp

I love good intellectual answers. Explains it all.

have u think about the 5% commission?
the more u talk about the money u are making the more referrers u will get.
maybe thats one of the points here

well you did ask if it was just you and we said it was.

Did you ever think you might be being played? Real money peeps don't talk about it.

who is we? You?

Correct.

But why does anyone ever really need to come to forums if they are rich?

I still come here and I have 12 mill to my name - this place is funny. :1orglaugh

amen..........

12 mill... nice...

I guess with all of that money you definitely have the time to waste here.

Personally, If I had 12 mill, I wouldn't be anywhere near a fucking computer. I'd be on my privately owned island enjoying life.

Play on.

hehe - true goodchris - just back from Fiji on a 2 week beach liearound. but this place is still funny regardless. no matter how much money you have, the brain needs stimulation.

Maybe this is just the way some people communicate :thumbsup Personally, I don't have anything against it :)

If I had 12 mil I would probably still be here and bragging about it...
:1orglaugh don't have enough people in real life to brag it too plus the best part about having the money is bragging... no point in having it if other people dont know you have it :1orglaugh

i dont even have that much and i already love to brag, if i was a millionaire that doesnt necessarily mean i would have a life and something better to do.

i used to be broke and have nothing better to do than be here... now i'm making six figures and still have nothing better to do than be here all day long, i dont even go anywhere or travel or do anything... so most likely if i became a millionaire i would still have no life and be here on gfy all day long and might as well have fun bragging about it... Even if i was a millionaire i know i would still have nothing better to do than sit here all day... Of course if you have money you can do things, but thing is that im so used to being online that i cannot do anything else, i feel weird travelling or going places...
I dont like to socialize and i don't like people. i only like my pc.

I'm so used to staying home and being here on the board all day when im working, its just basically my life... i can't travel or do anything else, this is just my routine/life....

Plus it feels good to have ur ego stroked, i feel i dont get enough attention/ego stroking in real life so if i was rich i wouldn't mind getting some online..

Even if i was a millionaire i would still want attention prolly and need my ego stroked... it feels good to get acknowledgement..

plus i'm not afraid/ashamed to admit that i care A LOT about what people think, if people say flattering things about me, of course it will raise my self esteem and make my day, i dont see how having money would change that.

I have to admit the more I make the more I find myself bragging... and I'm nowhere near driving a ferrari...

If I were rich I would brag to both real life people and on-line people, but I don't have a lot of real life friends, maybe one close friend, and it ain't no fun to brag to one person over and over...

Approval and praise is important, i like it when I post stats and some noob gets impressed, it makes me feel proud like i accomplished something...

Lame but it's true. I guess I never got enough attention growing up, had a bad childhood, never had the spotlight. I will take anything I can get now.

i wouldn't show my house, its nothing special though.

me to :thumbsup

so you dont want to see the pic of my new ride i take it..

People that brag about money either have small penises or were rejected by their mothers as a child.

come on, dude, you need to show off your stuff :-) The more money you get the bigger your cock will be and the world needs to know ;-)
