I used to be in an ensemble but things began to change after a few years. The leader of the band was in love with money, aspiring for some high end lifestyle accoutrements and decided to invite a wealthy lady with a 300 thousand dollar violin to join the band if she could pick clothes from her closet. So then there was a clique of three women two of whom were wealthy and one wanna be who had no idea of her true wealth which was her voice and songwriting skills. I hung back while they fawned over each others performance outfits. This all came to mind as I see a similar thing being reenacted at the pool. The adults forming junior high school style cliques and fawning over money and outfits. Once again I will hang back.
I do not understand this aspiring for wealth and then when signals of wealth are obtained (cruises, country houses, designer kitchens, delivery meal kit services) to brag about it. I guess that's the whole point. I think it's the most disgusting pastime, hobby, habit, personality trait.
