After he got married, young Momand moved with his wife to a very wealthy(rich) neighborhood on Long Island, outside New York City. The rich neighbors became examples to the Momands in every way of their life. When Momand and his wife saw that their neighbors belonged to a country club, they too joined a country club. They rode horses every day simply because their neighbors did so too. They also employed a maid because their neighbors had servants, and then even invited their neighbors home and fed them with festival banquets(宴会). Very soon, the Momands could no longer pay for their way of life. They left their wealthy neighborhood and rented a cheap apartment in New York City.
Momand later said that his experience had been a cruel awakening for him. He looked around him and noticed that many people were just like himself before, foolishly looking for a fashionable and luxurious (奢侈的) life that was equal to others. He decided to invent a comic series(系列漫画) entitled “Keep up with the Joneses” which was taken by a newspaper in 1913.
