Have you ever met someone who turned out to be nothing but trouble in the long run? Is it any surprise that they turned out that way? So now you’re probably wondering, “what could I have missed?” The answer is NOTHING! You missed nothing.

The red flags were always there. You just chose to ignore them. But it’s not entirely your fault. It also helps if you know what you are looking for. So what is the first red flag that someone is nothing but trouble?

Rudeness.

Elegant people don’t like rudeness, and uncouth people don’t like elegance. Rudeness shouts, elegance whispers. This is one of the primary motivators for wealth creation.

If you are sitting at a bar by yourself, and someone approaches you and starts being aggressive with you, demanding that you entertain them and answer all of their intrusive questions. They are rude.

If someone approaches you and leads with, “appreciate you, big dog.” That is rude because they are literally calling you a dog.

The problem is that society has normalized rudeness to the point that it sounds like a compliment. This makes it to where you are lowering your standards in order to make them comfortable, instead of forcing them to be respectful if they want your attention. This is why companies hire receptionists and security guards as gatekeepers.

You can’t just walk into a doctor’s office and be like, “yo big dog? Where my meds be at, bruh?” First of all, they’d probably call the police to escort you out of there, and rightfully so. You are not talking to your friends on the street corner.

The problem is that uncouth behavior nowadays has become the norm. These creeps are literally EVERYWHERE in society, and their behavior is so normalized, that I am labeled a weirdo if I call this shit out and demand respect.

People weren’t always good, mind you. But at least if you were out in public, or on TV, you are going to put on your Sunday best. Skirts for the ladies, suits for the gents. Whatever it was, it wasn’t THIS.

So now you are probably thinking, “those people from back in the day weren’t good people, they were just better at faking it.”

You call it fake. I call it decency.

This is not just some new means of social expression. Otherwise respect and decency would not be compromised. It is an epidemic of cowardly blame-shifting coupled with a lack of introspection and accountability.

And it has become so pervasive within society, that one cannot reasonably expect it to go away anytime soon. But do you know how we can go about resolving it on a personal level, so it doesn’t affect us?

First of all, true wealth is not about competition and social status, it is about being able to outrun the uncouth. Or better yet, outspend them.

You see, an eagle has wings and a snake slithers on its belly. So if you are an eagle and you know it, spread your wings and fly above the snake to where it can’t catch you.

That is what true wealth is all about. Money is like the wings of an eagle. It offers you the option of safety and privacy. So when you use your money to change your zip code versus competing with other normies, you are able to do what the normies cannot by living where they can only dream of. It doesn’t necessarily have to be an affluent neighborhood, just not a trash one.

And with that, you no longer have to tolerate loud music, and people fighting and smoking cigarettes, littering the streets with cigarette butts, while being aggressive and calling you out your name.

Normies want to turn all of society into a giant ghetto, and they are doing a damned good job of it. But when one of them wants to come around you acting a fool and thinking they’re cute, instead of being scared and validating their behavior, you actually need to laugh at these clowns for exactly what they are. Don’t feed the trolls, crush their egos instead.
