There are more social climbers now than ever before!<\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n<p><strong>1.  As Coco Chanel said, &#8220;dress as you wish to be perceived.  First and foremost, social climber should look like they belong . . . anywhere.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>2.  &#8220;As a rule of thumb, never be overdressed, for the simple reason that it will make it clear how hard you&#8217;re trying to be something you&#8217;re not.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>3.  &#8220;The era when an accent could hinder your climb is behind us.  Sounding as though you come from somewhere when you actually come from nowhere can be a plus. <\/strong> It is far better to keep your accent and your real name than taking on a fake name and losing your accent=you are then a fraud and a huge part of your soul dies when you do that.   Be who you really are and it will make you seem more authentic.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. For the social climber, honesty is rarely the best policy! You know who you are! \ud83d\ude41<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Social Climbing in the right house of worship will not only bring you closer to heaven, it can make your prayers come true. <\/strong> This is the case with so many popular and trendy movements such as Kabbalah, Transcendental Meditation, Scientology and other similar type Organizations.  The best way to promote a cult, belief system or movement is to gather a bunch of celebrities and high net worth people to do the advertising for you! \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Highly accomplished people never grow tired of hearing how great they are or having a million photos taken no matter what they claim!<\/strong> \ud83d\ude41  <\/p>\n<p><strong>7. The 3 questions you NEVER want to ask at a cocktail party. <\/strong><br \/>\n  1. Who are you?<br \/>\n  2. Where do you live?<br \/>\n  3. What do you do?<\/p>\n<p><strong>8. Where sexual desires are concerned, especially when love is involved, you are not in control; your desires control you.<\/strong>  Since a good social climber is always in control, sex and worse, love, can lead to potentially fatal missteps.<\/p>\n<p><strong>9. Great social climbers do not stop dating up the food chain just because they are married.<\/strong>  Sad but true.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>10. Being a great guest involves more than simply self-confidence and having great manners.<\/strong>  It means learning how to make yourself an asset to any and every social function you attend.  For instance, donate self-made items for the auctions, offer to donate services, business knowledge etc.<\/p>\n<p><strong>11.  More often than not, being a great guest means that you have to pretend that you are a better person than you really are.  <\/strong>A little goes a long way.  Most important of all, always bring a present.<\/p>\n<p><strong>12. Thank-you notes should always be written on personalized stationery in ink by hand! <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Back in the USSR, Hungary or Poland! \ud83d\ude41<\/strong><br \/>\n<iframe
