Brand new Mercedes in their twenties. Conservative Germany see that and can only wonder how someone can have something at that young age.
It must be stolen, from money laundering in those weird shisha bars. Must be something illegal.
The thing is, Germans prefer other things in life. They don’t show pride in owning something expensive, they don’t want to make someone else jealous.
They are not jealous if you show up with a Mercedes.
So when young men spend the money on a risky loan for an expensive car, it doesn’t make sense to conservative Germans, therefore those young boys didn’t do it and therefore it must be stolen or somehow illegal. In addition I recently learned that to own such a car people will also share it with close friends and instead of having 3 shitty cars they share one luxury car instead.

Not many people see your house/flat but wherever you go, people see your car, or cloths or jewelry therefore those things are more important to other cultures than to yourself.
Different priorities, different choices. For you it’s a fake facade, for their circle it is a sign of pride in their belongings. Don‘t project your expectations on others.
Most are spending all their money on high-depreciation items (cars, clothes, night-life) and accruing a lot of debt, thus setting a pattern of living beyond their means. Look after your own money and don't follow their bad example. 3 3points reply View more comments #7 Don't even get me started.

Most 23 year old's have a negative net worth. The ones that flaunt anything either are 1) coming from nice backgrounds or 2) are digging themselves into debt.
I can confidently say this because I come from the first scenario.
I guess my point is that it is all noise. Don't get distracted by it and pulled into the lifestyle of impressing others. If your life revolves around impressing others, you will not be happy regardless of how much money you have.

It wasn't easy, but walking the tight rope without a safety net has a way of making you focus on your goals and making the necessary sacrifices. 11 11points reply #19 Couple of options:
Wealthy parents
Still living at home - even a poor paying job can let you live well if your main expenses don't exist
social media effect - you only see the BEST days you don't see the other 6 days in the week.
EDITS to add from other comments:
Debt - especially a way to have the "nice car" they really should not be buying
Luck - there are people out there who get super lucky and fall into the right job that gets them wealthy, or get lucky on Crypto or stocks
Life of the party - Some people get invited to cool events because they are good fun
EDIT 2 Because this blew up more while i was sleeping:
Drug Dealing/Crime - a way to get a lot of money fast
Vacation - this is more for the people around your friends but people will be there for a good time and spending their money.
Hard work - At age 21 this usually going to have be in concert with a bit of luck or parental help, but hard work will take those advantages further.

But doesn’t have much else - no investments, savings, or any preparation for the future.
Some people just spend money on outside materials - sometimes even to impress others - but have nothing else.
Of course come people have rich parents are might be doing okay for a season. But you can look rich without being rich.
Also in my experience the higher middle class to slightly wealthy people show rarely any signs that they are.
Im not rich my any means but I drive a 16 year old car that is literally worth only a couple grand and has rust. I don’t upgrade because I don’t need to and rather have the money in investments.
That being said, the best way to start having free time and make good money is to start looking at options like starting a business, investing opportunities, etc.
