Why do people brag about their achievements when we’re all gonna die one day ?

Why do people brag about things that we can’t take to the grave ?

Why breathe when it won't matter after you die? @Reclusemaxer

 

[Copexodius Maximus]

same reason people brag about what their character has accomplished in a video game, even though they have eventually shut the game off and live in the real world as well.

And what is the reason?

its usually to tell themselves that they are better than you to stave off feelings of inadequacy and insignificance. if i find things to classify myself as better than you then i am not a loser because i look down on you plebs . insecure dumbassarie

It is because human beings are inherently afraid of death and having a high amount of worldly achievements lessens that fear. When you think that your life is still busy and active, you feel that death is less likely. It is similar with money, the more money you have the more time you think you have to spend it all.

Human nature

To stroke their own egos

 

[DryDick]

To increase their social status so they can find a (high quality) partner they can mate with and allow their genes to live on even after they themselves die.
