If you were rich, would you want the world to know?

I would prefer not be to on any kind of list and keep my wealth status to myself.

You can't exactly hide wealth. It shows in how you live. But you can hide how wealthy you are.

@Stereoguy that's a different kind of vanity people have. Besides the point though on what I say.

@SW-User I would still live on the down low... and as @Stereoguy said, I will not advertise it either.

Last thing I want is to make a target of myself in any way.

@iMystery not completely. You will probably get a better house, a better car, better clothes etc etc. It will show in little ways.

But if you think you can completely keep it hidden.. Cool.

@SW-User Yeah perhaps, but even so, I would not go all "bling and brand" crazy... I am just one who does not want any attention drawn towards myself.

I wouldn't even want to drive a BMW or Mercedes or anything like that because it draws too much attention... I prefer to blend into the background.... hide in the shadows...

@SteelHands 🤣... no man... that is SOOOOO not me lol... I would prefer to build a cabin in the woods away from everyone and everything.

I prefer that kinda solitude lol.

@iMystery lol. Who says you need to brand up to look wealthy? But surely if you have money, you will spend some on making your life more comfortable.
Anyway. If you think you can do it, so be it.

@iMystery And how would you power the cabin? A quiet Honda or a trailered Wacker with a soundproof box? You gonna have a three stage water purifier or you gonna have bottled flown in or just buy a hummer?

Epa bribes or layers of legal Eagles with enough juice to let you drop a tree or you gonna have a gas storage facility licensed?

I looked into it. Don't kid yourself. That takes lots of wealth or a lot of people would be doing it.

Of course. Living on a rock plateau with a bird pad and anonymity is possible. You cut ties completely.

Nobody can do that.

@SteelHands Lol... EPA?... does not apply to me... Im not in USA lol.

Every now and then I go camping without electricity, just a tent and some bottled water with some things to eat or cook on the fire... I love the outdoors...

But I know how hard it will be to go completely off the grid lol... hence why I said I would PREFER to live in solitude... if I was on my own lol.. but I have a family and they would not be able to live that way lol.

A man can dream lol.
