我们可以用这一句话“人怕出名猪怕肥”来形容公众人物。在中国，有一些公众人物喜欢开名车、戴名表，或是住豪宅。这样的行为，我们称作“炫富”。

We can use this proverb ‘Men are afraid of being famous, just as pigs are afraid of getting fat.’ to describe celebrities. There are some celebrities in China who like to drive luxurious cars, wear fancy watches, or live in luxurious houses. These behaviors are called ‘flaunting one’s wealth’.

广东人爱吃野味是全国有名的，一般来讲，普通百姓吃大众野味，比如兔子，猫之类的，可是你说的这些可都是受法律保护的野生动物，食用它们是违法的。但正是因为这样，一些有钱人就以此来炫耀自己的经济实力或向来宾显示自己的诚意。我觉得这种行为特别不人道，实在应该被禁止。

Cantonese people are famous all over China for loving to eat game. Generally, ordinary people eat common game, like rabbits, cats and such. But the ones you're talking about were all protected wild animals. Eating them is illegal. But it's just because of this that some rich people use this as a chance to show off their wealth, or to show their clients their sincerity. I think it's really inhumane, and it really should be forbidden.
