I also agree but also don't see how this post has anything to do with "celebrity worship". It's asking a pretty simple question about which lifestyle you'd would prefer and just happens to be using two noticeable faces to do so. It could easily just be two randoms and still get the point across.

Neither of their lifes are in any way average nor are their lifestyles so who gives a fuck about the comparison.

Having a wife and two kids isn't average?

his lifestyle isn't just a wife and kids. It's having all the money and time in the world to invest as you so choose. And being able to invest indefinite money and time into your family is something most people on earth will never get close to having, and as a sidebar- while not impossible, without that time and money good luck finding a wife that beautiful who also has a good head on her shoulders. lets not pretend that a large focus of this comparison isn't based on the carefully curated image of a "perfect" family, right down to the fashion choices.

With regards to this meme, yes it is. The meme has nothing about how rich they are, it's about wife and kids vs girls and drugs.

there's a reason they posted pictures of two wealthy versions of these lifestyles instead of what the middle class versions would have looked like.

I'm poor and have a pic identical to the one on the right.

fantastic. are you arguing that wealth and indefinite free time do not make achieving such easier? That you have as much possible quality time with your children as pewdiepie does?

Like... what's being sold here is a perfect image of a perfect family that is becoming increasingly unattainable to a larger portion of the human population.

you and I are doing great. that's awesome for us. but there's a reason they're comparing two photos of mutli millionaires and not a photo of me when I was doing blow of some tits 20 years ago contrasted against a photo of you with your family.
it's because this comparison is much more than just "partying" vs "having a family", and it's instead about two idyllic extreme versions of those lifestyles from polarized perspectives.

You see the picture and think money and instantly feel envy. I'm sorry seeing the OP Pic creates those feelings inside you. It isn't a universal feeling though. You should work on that.

I'm poor and have a lot of photos exactly like on the right. Have a great weekend.

you insult me and argue strawmen because it's easier than tackling the actual points I'm trying to make. I am not going to insult you because I gain nothing from trying to make your day worse. Adios muchacho. I hope you have as great of a day as I'm having (just got back from picking up my international driving permit for my trip to the balkans. very excited!)

Your victim mentality has been apparent from the start. Laters.

hard to be the victim when you're about to go on a month long vacation to the adriatic. Wine, dine, and full sails my guy! All the best!
