How to Make People Believe You’re Rich -Episode 1

Fake it till you make it right??

Well, I can teach you how to fake it flawlessly! In my short 2-year career as a digital marketer and make shift event planner, I have had the opportunity to work with very high profile clients. We’re talking old money, Banana Island-living, soft-spoken, “doesn’t do too much” kinds of parents who have stashed away generational wealth for their trust fund kids. Those kinds of people.

As the queen of people watching, I have observed it all. How many of them act, speak, eat etc.  So, let’s get to the first lesson. 

Lesson no 1 : Never finish your food! 

If you’re slurping the ‘’indomie water’’ from your plate of noodles in 2024, you’re in trouble. I am sorry to break it to you but you’re not showing signs that you will be rich o! Rich people do not eat everything on the plate. They nibble here and there and ask the waiters to clear the table.

 At one celebrity wedding I attended, I remember looking down at all the plates and wondering if the guests understood the meaning of ‘’eating’’. Hardly anything had been touched. The waiters were clearing full plates of food, chicken and all. 

As the sharp girl that I am, I also ate my waffles half way and pushed the plate aside. I cannot come and disgrace my ancestors. They worked too hard to get me here. Although , I did see one of the ‘’high profile’’ guests signal to her personal assistant to pack small chops and put them in her car. I rate it. Kudos to her. 

Maybe I should add that as a sub lesson. Get a p.a, give him the food you’re not ready to eat to keep in the car. Then, nibble bits and bobs at the table. Food secured and steeze maintained. 10/10 experience. 

If you’re already a ‘nibbler’ you’re on the right track my friend and you’ve successfully hacked the first thing wealthy people do. Give yourself 10 points. Don’t get too excited though. We’ve got nine more classes. You eat rich but do you look rich? We’ll find out in lesson 2.
