Do you do this? It's not bad to post anything about the thing that makes you proud, like your investments and the hard work you have or the expensive things you have or the travel that you did. And if you like to post them, be sure if that's really what you want or you just want others to get envious about that. We can never please anyone in this world you know. Photo is mine from last night's event. I just love the chinese lantern. Lol

I've never posted anything to make anyone envious of me, that would be very selfish.

Everyone's lifestyle is different and everyone's thoughts : reactions to a post could be different too. I don't get bothered by posts involving money or travel, etc. It doesn't necessarily have to be a large sum mentioned, just by having a nice happy simple life someone could easily be jealous.

There are a lot of people like that. As what' I've said, we cannot please anyone. But if we are doing it just to make someone get jealous then it is not right.

@JustBhem Yes thats correct. It is hard to tell what people would be jealous of. Some people do like bragging in general though - it makes them 'happy' supposedly.

@MGjhaud Haha. I even asked the crew from McDonalds about how to get one. Haha. They said it's not for giving because it's their decorations. And when I try to check it, makes me think to create one.

posting about your achievements is good and hopefully appreciated by others, but it is also in the manner of presenting your discussions (if with sarcasm and pride) that can result to envy by others. if you have bought expensive things because of your hard work, i don't think one must be envious about it. it should be a goal to achieve to one who wishes the same to his life

And we can't please everybody you know. We think that way, but others think of it the other way.

I have seen lots of posts like that on Facebook, but I don't think people intentionally do that to make others jealous. If they are our friends or family, I am very happy for them. The others, I don't care about.

Yes because Facebook has them all. Other people are not open minded as others that is why they feel jealous.

If one is proud of their achievements and accomplishments and want to post about it and share it, it's not wrong at all. It all depends on how people reciprocate and whether they are envious or happy for you. However one should not post just to make others jealous. That is not right.

My posts are mostly about the hard facts of life - and sometimes about my own shortcomings.

I see. I also like to share some of life's story whether it's good or bad.
