Low esteem of people with dishonestly acquired property

Funny fact, I personally know only five persons who are on Czech standards filthy rich, but all of them acquired their wealth by honest business.

When you would run into them on the streets you could see that they are rich only in small details (for example nice watches, nice glasses, etc.), but they are dressed normally and drive in Audi or BMW cars (standard car, nothing eccentric.)

And when you see in the media e.g. pictures of children of politicians (if they would not take bribes their kids could not afford 100 000 euro cars, etc.) they are always:
a) dressed in expensive clothes (but not elegant, their styling screams: Look at me, I can afford T-Shirt worth 600 euros and price tag on my sneakers was the same as average salary in Czech Republic, 900 euros).
b) they drive in supersport cars like porsche, audi R8 and some of them secretly also in bentley, etc.

Why do they do that? The frustration of knowing, that they are total losers and the only thing that they can do is being the parasite of this society? It is estimated that hundreds of million euros per year are spent on bribing politicians and clerks in state offices so they favor someone in government contracts.

So maybe these, I call them parasites, with their low self-esteem want to show off to everyone, so they will get the attention of the succesful - look at me, I can afford it, too? They are ridiculous. I do not envy rich people, if I know they made their success by honest work - they had great idea in a great time and their business was succesful. Only few of the people in the society can accomplish that and everyone is looking up to them as paragons of business. But thinking of those "parasites" is different. Hey, if there are rich people, I want to be rich, too, but I do not want to do anything for it. These people are not worth the envy as well, they are only worth the despise.

So what is the morale of this story? If you steal or take bribes, it does not make you happy person, because when you have at least some intelligence, you will always know that you are nothing but the parasite of the society.
