Fans have their say

Social media is divided, with some people calling Ross out for portraying a certain life online but living like a normal human being.

HardEarnedGains said:

"Tell me you people are not this stupid. The reason this is "news" is because Ross projects this image of being a super boss who flies private jets all the time, sipping on expensive champagne, and wouldn't be caught dead being normal. This exposes the lie that is his public image."

@ConsciousFoxx replied:

"That’s not the point. It’s smart to fly economy if you're rich and wanna save money long term. But Rick Ross pretentiously leverages and shames others with less money, boasting a luxurious life while showing no loyalty and no moral consistency. He’s the highest definition of a fraud."

@Whats_the_dirt exclaimed:

"Rick Ross Found Flying Economy. Drake's lyrics continue to age insanely well. Thanks to the person who emailed me this!"

Meanwhile, some people defended Rick Ross, saying his riches should not dictate how he chooses to live his life.

@Lilgucci2 defended the rapper:

"Who cares that Rick Ross is riding a commercial plane? My question for you is, how is this bettering your life, your living situation? How is this putting any type of money in your pocket? Broke people sit around trying to critique someone else’s life when their own life is a complete mess. At the end of the day, Rick Ross flying Commercial doesn’t take away that he owns a whole Gulfstream plane."

@Mondz_malatjie added:

"Ayo, y’all act like people who own cars still don’t take the subway from time to time, y’all act like people who own restaurants don’t eat at other restaurants from time to time. You get the logic, y’all act like people who own homes don’t sometimes rent other houses or hotels from time to time, you get the logic, like please shut up. It’s evident that the mass majority of you people in the comment section have a remedial pea brain."
