"Your not your job, you are not how much money you have in the bank, you are not the car you drive, you are not the contents of your wallet, you are not your khakis."
You are you. Moral of the story. Don't try to be stereotyped by what others may physically see, but rather by what's on the inside. How you live and what you have should not be how you are looked as. A garbage man should not be looked down upon because he's a garbage man, but rather he should be seen as himself. A rich person should not be stereotyped into one category because he is rich, because he might be completely different then that. The material goods that you own or have should not matter. It should be how you act in your everyday life and the morals that you live by. How you portray yourself. It's all up to the person who is being judged, not the people who judge you to make the decision about who you are. However people in society don't do this. Society becomes biased off of the material goods and appearance of others. For example: if someone dressed poorly with died hair and facial piercings and was applying for the same job as someone who dressed like the perfect image of society's perfection, people would trust the perfect person more so then the one with the piercings when in reality the person with the piercings might be more intelligent or better suited for the job. Some companies would probably be biased against the person with piercings right from the beginning. All in all, just be yourself and don't judge others by their appearance.
