Honest people tend to look with suspicion upon people who pretend to fulfill such unrealistic patterns of ideals, values, principles and expectations. Such honest people are thus prone to prudence. In contrast, dishonest people tend to regard such unrealistic patterns of ideals, values, principles and expectations as offering opportunities for self-advancement through arrogant self-righteousness which they know how to excel in. Dishonest people tend to be proud of how they excel in taking advantage of unrealistic patterns of ideals, values, principles and expectations; and are disdainful towards people who do not take good advantage of them.
