Once money is used to prove the past, it’s the beginning of class becoming locked in.

The truly upward-moving people, after they earn money, only use it to level themselves up and leave the old environment behind.
Because the old environment will keep defining you—who you are, and how your money gets spent.
Once you cater to it, you can’t go back.
Don’t welcome a decaying, lonely environment.
Don’t stay home just to be the top one there—go out to a bigger world.
