i'll disagree with that. as a child of european parents i can unequivocally say that europeans in general seek out ostentatious displays of wealth, i.e. jewelry, clothing, luxury cars. status is much more important in many of those countries because of the relative absence of a middle class, and those with money will go out of their way to let everyone around them know "what they have".
Agree! My wife is from Europe and when we go to visit people are all about clothes with bold designer labeling, etc. especially the new generation.
Expensive cars and houses are no different than here to stand out as well. Many towns are very poor and modest but you'll have those abnormally big villas and high end cars to show how much money you have.
