For the love of god, please make more money and don't become a backpacker.

Is there something wrong with being a backpacker? I get the sense they are looked down upon by some in other countries... not necessarily the locals, but other travelers. Is this correct? If so, why?

You're a local, need money from tourism.
Would you prefer

-a well dressed, nice smelling guy spending a lot for his holidays probably with his family.
-a backpacker with doubtful personal hygiene living on 5$ a day and bananas pancakes, partying in the street ( clubs are too expensive ) drunk on cheap beer

But you are a backpacker already I think, so...
