Is Being Neat a Luxury Only the Rich Can Afford?

Somehow, I don't know why people always think cleanliness determines if you are rich or poor, they forget the fact that being clean is all about the environment you are in and also your character, well at some point, money is important because you have to get the things you need, money is the solution to all things but I don't just like the propaganda that you being dirty means you are poor.
This is why most people want to start their fake lifestyle, copying what others are doing even when they don't have the income to fund such lifestyle. At times, people are dirty due to certain conditions especially their work, I once remember when I went to fix my car in a mechanic workshop, one of the guys saw a lady he was crushing on walk by and he just stood there feeling scared while others were laughing at him and I asked them what happened, they were like, he once approach the lady and one of the reply he got was that he is dirty and not in her class, now this kind of guy will be pressured to do things beyond his power just to be in her imaginable class.

Cleanliness can't really exist without money because cleanliness is more than just wearing neat clothes nowadays, you can't live in a face to face apartment where you share toilets and think you are clean, even if you have your own apartment, cleaning everyday is tiring, talk less of washing cloth all the time, you will need tools to make it easier for you and it cost money, do you know how much toothpaste, deodorant and other products cost nowadays, do you even know how much skincare products cost, I almost vexed at a lady when she started listing the cost of her skin care products, I was shocked and told her are these not just chemicals, a whole products which is nearly 100k, sorry how much is your monthly income, what happen to using normal lux soap and vaseline.
Money truly have a strong influence on how neat or how hygienic you can be as a person, even if cleanliness and hygiene depend on your mindset, without money to make it possible, then it is nothing.

Is true one can be neat without money but there are many things that need the assistance of money to be put in order.
Fastest finger(lol) ....You nailed it bro ,cleanliness is both a mindset and a resource-dependent habit. While being neat doesn't mean you're rich, maintaining hygiene consistently in today’s world does come with real costs.
You really raised a solid point..cleanliness does reflect mindset, but maintaining it consistently in today’s world does come with a cost. From basic hygiene products to comfortable living conditions, money definitely plays a role. It’s a balance of both character and resources.
Honestly Speaking, I always disagree with people when they say that they are dirty because they are poor, right there and then, I will the tell then person you are just dirty...
