“Too many people spend money they haven’t earned, to buy things they don’t want, to impress people they don’t like.”
— Will Smith

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, people borrow money or use credit cards to buy expensive things they don't really need or even want. They do this to look good in front of others, especially those they might not even like. Imagine if you bought an expensive car because you think your neighbors will be impressed, even though you're perfectly happy with your old car. Now you're in debt and stressed out just to impress those neighbors. Instead, focus on buying what you need and like, without worrying about what others think. This way, you can save money and be happier and less stressed.
