I think a few people are getting a little personal on my here - I was just asking people to consider an idea - not asking to be attacked and not trying to attack anyone. Like I said in the beginning - I like bike commuting and camping.
It's an interesting question not really posed here before (which is unusual) and that is one why reason you've gotten so many replies. I think it's wrong to deliberately or callously flaunt wealth in front of those less fortunate. Could the actions of camping or commuting by bike be considered flaunting your wealth? Under certain circumstances maybe, but generally no.
