What do y’all consider flexing?
I don’t consider a person living their life, and enjoying the fruits of their labor as flexing.
I consider flexing being a show off, like pulling up to a simple family gathering dressed like Akeem when he first touched down in New York City.
And like somebody else said be confident not arrogant.

You see it
To a lot of people just merely having something they don't have means you're flexing

Exactly... Cac mentality.
We've already been dumbed down from the extravagant energy of our ancestors.... Now they want us to dumb it down even more.

Flex and be as arrogant as you like but watch your back cause y'all know how ppl are out here is all I'm saying.
better carry a strap . I shouldn’t even have to say that tho . Every black man without a felony should carry
There's a big difference between confidence and arrogance. I prefer to be highly confident in myself and my abilities and humble in my demeanor than to walk around arrogant and flashy, but to each his own.
There are too many folks around nowadays that ain't doing too well and there's gonna be even more coming soon, you gotta read the room. That flashy arrogant shyt can put a target on your back in the worst kind of way. Especially for successful black men because between friends family and folks we went to school with or group up with, we all tend to just be a couple degrees of separation away from some street shyt, if that. No need to give folks that are hungry or jealous someone to fixate on.
And I'll say one last thing, ultra-wealthy folks tend to be super lowkey. I know a girl through a friend who's family has big money and she's super low key. She only has like a hundred and something friends on Instagram, page is private. Very pretty girl, in shape, no thot rocket pictures and attention whoring on her page. Random former NBA players pop up in her comments. Married, has a kid, husband is connected, they have a multi-million dollar home, and they live their lowkey wealthy life out of the public eye. New money and people seeking ego validation tend to be the flashy and arrogant types, no disrespect.
To each his own though, as long as you're enjoying your life and not hurting anybody then do whatever the fukk you feel like doing.

One childhood friend, who had relocated to Atlanta after practicing medicine in New York, told us, “You can make a million dollars a year and live in the nicest house in Buckhead, but you’ll never be accepted by the old black elite in this town.”
“These people will stare you in the face after you’ve told them of your great accomplishments,” explained our friend, “and the only thing that will matter to them is who in your family went to Morehouse, and for how many generations your family has lived in Atlanta.”
There’s always ‘levels’ to flexing.
Why people act only black people flex and stunt, because we do it the best lmao
Even broke nikkaz stunt that's why old school cars and cutlass, and grand nationals became popular now those cars are expensive if you wanna because broke nikkaz still enjoyed life and stunted, and made those cars desirable.
If you not a stunner, you not a stunner, and unless you know the person and was hating on them when they was broke it's not you they stunting on, so why are you mad and worried about what other people do
people telling on themselves, trying to tell other people what to do with money that don't affect them, how you gonna tell somebody what car to buy, they buying it to please themselves not anybody else, if that's what they want that's what they want
If muthafukka wanna wear versace robes everyday and drive roll royces why would you give a fukk

some people feel as though confidence and happiness are finite and they only understand confidence and happiness in terms of how they relate to other people. They don't understand that the real shyt is from within and everybody can tap into it.

Exactly.
The black man is the flyest organism in existence.
Nothing but truth!!
