Children should go to the top schools; cost is secondary. | A fancy car and a good looking house spell success. |
You must spend a little more than you can afford to get ahead in life. | If you have to scrimp and save, other people shouldn't know it. |
A big income means that a person has really arrived. | I'd like to have nothing but the best. |
Clothes should look expensive. | None of the cheap stuff is worth much. |
A good address is really necessary. | Money and prestige-they go hand in hand. |
A person has to look successful. | Nothing is too good for one's children. |
Buying at the best stores is important. | Children should live in a neighborhood that will bring them in contact with important people. |
At a restaurant, it's nice to be the one who picks up the check for the whole group. |
