Well, you should be more specific with that spending part because it's getting me confused. Even when we don't have much, we still spend money so we can eat, we still spend money so that we can shelter ourselves, we still spend money so we can take our kinds to school that's if we are parents, and we spend money on different unforseen challenges so the fact remains that as long as you're alive, whether rich or poor, you will have to spend.
But if what you mean by that is spending money extravagantly because you've made some money then I would certainly advice against that. Sometimes we should just take a look at the rich and influential people around us; Elon musk of cryptocurrency, Mark of Facebook, even dangote of Africa are all wealthy people but they just appear simple even in the way they dress. Spending money on unnecessary things isn't what makes you a rich or influential being but what you can do and what impact you can create in your society.
In the best of my knowledge, I think it's only the poor people that always like to show off and spend the little they have on unnecessary things to prove that they aren't poor and they often concentrate on the way they dress and look. I think when you're rich, you need to invest and save more than spending.
