"The poor play cars, the rich play watches" What are the following sentences?

The next sentence is: The proletariat plays computers.

Why we say this:

1. In most high-end social occasions, cars are secondary, but watches can better highlight your identity and taste. For example, at a large cocktail party, when a person is showing off the Lamborghini he just bought, you suddenly walk by and flash your watch, and others find that one of your watches is more expensive than his Lamborghini - what is this? What's the difference? This is the difference between the nouveau riche and the really tall, handsome and rich.

2. High-end watches are limited edition works of art, high-end cars are not. High-end watches and high-end cars. In fact, from the perspective of purchasing, the world's top cars are more rare than the top watches. For example, a person without a royal title cannot customize many handmade cars. But watches can be bought as long as you have money. So the poor want cars and the rich want watches, this is just a concept put forward by the Chinese - because the Chinese cannot buy top-notch cars at all, but they can buy watches that are limited to only 10 models in the world. High-end cars are not difficult to buy because they are not limited in quantity, but watches, sorry, there are only so many, and please note that there are only so many "global" ones.

3. In terms of collection value, a person cannot have 20 Lamborghinis because they are repetitive in nature, but he can have 20 Patek Philippes. The so-called play seems to be a very easy word, but in fact it must be considered from the value of collection. A car will be scrapped after twenty years, but many watches can last for a hundred years.

In addition, starting from the sentence itself, the poverty in the car does not entirely refer to the amount of property, but also has a spiritual meaning. Many wealthy Chinese people are famous internationally for being accused by foreign countries of having no taste, because they are not "aristocratic" and do not have good self-cultivation. And a watch is something that can very well demonstrate one's self-cultivation - because the watch itself represents many things, such as punctuality, taste, self-cultivation and other added values ??besides money. As for cars, most of them are just means of transportation. There is a gap between them in terms of taste and spirituality. The world of rich people will not compare with who is richer, but will only compare with who is more educated, because culture cannot be bought with money.
