Hey guys,

Here, i have seen every 2nd person driving expensive car, having high end gadgets etc...

It is really difficult to judge one's status from what he drives or uses. Cos, i dont see much exclusivity in things here.

Share your views, on stuffs, cars or other things which shows status of person....in either way...

There are Mercedes that cost 100K QR and there are ones that cost 700K QR thats the difference. Many more people can afford the first while very few can afford the last. The ones who have the last probably do have a fleet of other ones sitting gathering dust. Many people can afford an I-phone, but few can afford the Vertu. Many people can afford a trip to their favorite place, but few can afford a first class trip to the French Riviera.

My advice is don't waste money on such things unless you have it to burn. In the end it's just that, a waste cause you're not impressing anyone, especially not the guy in first class.

Oh and of course an igal with two tassels. :) may or may not have anything to do with money, but definitely a different status in Qatar.
