I ask this question in response to reading the MOA Manifesto. In it, it states that you should post things that are authentic to you - while also showing access to scarce resources to display high status. Authentically, I don’t REALLY have access to many scarce resources at all right now. Although I love to travel and a part of me admires the high-lifestyle, my life doesn’t actually consist of luxury cars, hotels and experiences. In fact, I recently took a trip to a luxury hotel mostly just to grab a picture, which was fun, but the average onlooker might think I live a completely different life (which may be the point, but hear me out). I understand that doing so may attract a certain type of person, but if asked what my experience was like there, would it not be disappointing to know that I didn’t ACTUALLY do anything other than take a nice picture there? In reality, this just begs the question: Does this behavior make what I’m doing inauthentic or not, and why?

Yo whats up guys, happy to be here and work on building / networking with social circle. I am in central valley California about an hr away from the bay area
