People claim this one subtle detail immediately reveals if someone is rich
Keep an eye out for this next time you meet someone new
In a time where it seems like everyone is screaming about how much money they make from side hustles and showing off their crypto accounts, what’s the secret to knowing if someone is truly wealthy?
There’s a phrase which says ‘money shouts, wealth whispers’, and there are some subtle details which can give away someone’s net worth.
Someone posted on Reddit to ask: “What’s a subtle sign someone is rich but hiding it?” and people have flocked to the comment section to share their observations.
Whether they’re genuinely trying to hide their wealth, or just prefer an understated life, many people agreed there was one key thing to look for.
You might think they would be head to toe in logos and designer brands, flaunting their sports car and multiple fancy holidays every year, but it’s much more subtle than that.
To spot the truly wealthy, apparently it’s all in the wardrobe.

Instead of gaudy designs, commenters all agreed you should look for high-quality but nameless clothing.
Think well-tailored shirts, suits and dresses over big fashion names and logos at every turn.
“Wearing nameless clothes, no flashy brands or vending machine style jewellery,” said one commenter.
“You’ll never hear them talking about money, if you do they’ll never remark about how much they have or earn, and if they are a stranger they will probably lie about their job to keep you from suspecting them of having money,” they added.
Another commenter agreed: “It’s so funny, the nameless clothes makes such a huge difference. I switched all my old clothes that I had gotten from Ross that were all basically just branded shirts with logos that I had bought because they were cheap with just plain colored shirts with nothing on them (that albeit were still cheap when I bought them on sale, like $7 each) and it transformed my entire look.”
