There are two kinds of rich people in the world. The “visibly wealthy” actively advertise their wealth, blasting social media with their extravagant lifestyles and owning “show-off” possessions, like luxury sports cars, yachts and jewelry. The other type lives relatively frugally, enjoying the occasional extravagance but generally just keeping to themselves.
In some cases, the latter category may have more wealth than the former, as living in the fast lane is one of the easiest ways to lose wealth. Just ask billionaire Warren Buffett, who still lives in the relatively modest Nebraska house he bought in 1958. Certainly, living a modest lifestyle like Buffett can help you get rich without people noticing, but Buffett also made his billions on the back of a stellar investment career.
