    It may be an attempt to not appear as if they are of lower income status. For example, one woman I know, originally from a lower income status but currently living in a middle class neighborhood due to child support payments, prioritizes her spending much differently from most middle class households. She is all about the ‘bling’, showing off her expensive car, recently installed extravagent pool, multiple televisions, video games for the kids, you get the picture. She equates everything she has purchased with a dollar amount, and is not shy about telling us how much she has paid for her luxury items. I guess she is trying to impress everyone with how much money she has since she grew up without it.
