Yeah, that's exactly it! It's like doing salt bae thing on a turd that you pulled out of the toilet.
That's not to say that anybody with nice stuff is by definition is bad or of poor quality, obviously that doesn't check out, but they normally learn to walk before they can run and develop a sense of modesty.
I recall a traditional music session here in Ireland, and an young fellow showed up who was very arrogant, and when asked if he would like to play a song, he played a song but spent the next 10 minutes talking about himself and thanking everyone as if he was accepting an Oscar or something, refusing to pass the instrument along until somebody shouted 'you're not good enough to be that humble!'. He didn't hang around long after that!
