Well there you have it.
Nigerians culture is nouveau riche.
Even Nigerian old money act nouveau riche.
I went shopping with my rich uncle and he didn't check the price tag of anything he bought once

I know people who are pretty affluent, but they have said things to me like "I am done buying Ferragmo, they are charging too much"
this was when drivers from like $495 to $625, so a man who owns a Ferrari, is saying that $200 is too much, but he wasn't joking
I always look, unless generally know the numbers already, or close enough (which dudes uncle probably does) because I may be a buyer at $400 for example, but not $800, even if there's 5k in my pocket. Everyone has their own perspective.
There is no ONE way the "rich" do things, that's all like media/social media telling you that.

I came from nothing
I think theres levels to it. The truly rich people I know will buy cheap clothes and cars, but wont blink at spending 10K on boat fuel for their sport fisherman boat. Or 15k for fuel for their plane. I have another homey whos I.T. rich and is super cheap about his car/clothes, but he'd drop whatever on electronics. He has the latest apple product before it comes out, the latest tv, headphones, stereo system, and things of that nature. He already put his name on some list to get the apple vision googles.
So i think folks just have the "thing" for them that they dont mind spending money on. It could be clothes, cars, homes, vacations, food, bytches, or something else that we'd consider frivolous.
