| Aug 25, 2017 at 16:16 | comment | added | Juan Carlos Oropeza | I read all the answers but will give Peter the +1 because was the one reaching the OP sentiment. John my two cents. I was on the same boat as others because I thought the question was very naive, but is probably because we have more live experience. Peter in other hand go back to basics and understand a way to explain something we seen obvious. And I agree don't let negativity affect you, because even when some discussion were rude I could see the content they try to transmit because I wasn't emotional involve, but you were looking it with a hot head. | |

| Aug 25, 2017 at 14:43 | comment | added | John Doe | Right that makes sense. Thanks for your civility and teaching me to think differently about my problem. It's something that a lot of users on the SO network don't understand. It's a very hostile environment here. And I'm guessing because I learned something from you, you're being serially downvoted... | |
| Aug 25, 2017 at 14:38 | comment | added | Peter | @JohnDoe You got the point. The one thing I omitted is that to make things look more attractive it's not always necessary or even beneficial to go the expensive/luxury route. | |

ethics in ignorance of reality hit home to me (as did your examples of things we do to "impress"). I think it's one of the things that I have to accept as standard practice when doing business (even if it does feel weird to me). Maybe seeing how sales work in the business world shows that running a business this way just isn't for me. From looking at everyone's comments on this question, it seems like it's ok to attempt to impress without substance... since in reality you won't survive if you don't.
