I would add this corollary as I've seen the reverse problem a lot too:
No one is as impressed with your frugalness as you are.

Haha, you're totally right. I picked it up from my extremely frugal father and I consciously try and fight it a bit.
As for my possessions, I didn't buy them for others or to show them off. I bought them to enjoy them and I do.
Not really sure what the point of the advice is except maybe don't buy things to impress others.
