Does spending and extravagance differ from the rich to the poor?

The questioner : Relative spending differs from the rich to the ordinary person.

The Shaykh : How does it differ?

The questioner : On the side of the rich, there are vast sums of money, so they do not become extravagant, is it according to their status?

The Shaykh : Yes, it differs without a doubt. For example, a wealthy, major merchant might buy a luxurious car, and it is not said that he is extravagant. But if a person of moderate means, or one below that, bought it, he would be called extravagant. The same applies to spending, because extravagance is exceeding the limit, and this varies according to the company one keeps.
