I define myself nowadays by whom I have for friends, and my love of family and friends... not what I do or material things that I possess. It always kills me when I run into some guy I worked with years ago, and they slip in the question..."So, what are you driving these days?" I always hated that question. Judge me by my car... yeah, right! Cool. 8>)
I have a great son, brother and GF. Thats all I need. Hell even the ex wife and I are still friends, as is her new husband.
You shouldn't let people like that bother you. Money and things do not equal happiness.
A new expensive car is not all that. Something you enjoy is a better investment in happiness. A restored 60's muscle car, or a classic like a Falcon can be better... but you need to choose something you're passionate about and enjoy. It may not even be a car. For example I love my Pinball machines, and because others can tell I genuinely enjoy them, that comes across in a positive light.
What matters is that you're enjoying yourself. If you're getting that done, you won't care so much what others think of you!
