Border Promotion

The raising of one's status as a result of crossing a literal, or figurative, border to an area where one is of higher relative status than where they came form.

This can be done by moving to an area where one's race or nationality automatically makes them elite, and/or moving to an area where one's financial means are much higher than the median as compared to where one is moving from.

This "move" does not have to be a physical move...it can be a social move. This is best evidenced by a loser white guy going after minority women to get a hot one (e.g. mail-order brides). Likewise, any decent looking white woman can always secure herself a wealthy husband if she is willing to hook up with a successful black guy or an Asian guy.

When the Smiths retired and moved to Mexico, they got a border promotion and were able to live in a much nicer house.

That piece of white trash couldn't get a decent-looking white girl to save his life, but once he went down the mail-order bride route, he got a really hot wife due to the border promotion.

Self-promotion

Self-promotion isn't a recommendation because if you have to say it, it's more than likely not true.

Jerry - "I'm not here to brag but I have won over 30 business awards, been the manager of 3 companies and I'm only 23"

Paul - "Hey now, Self-promotion isn't a recommendation"

Self Promotion

A independent individual self aware of their ability. They choosing to maximize on their own economic development. They shamelessly use self promotion on social media about their personal or professional ability, experience, or education.

Lee is always posting something about his new company. He's even made YouTube videos and he is on every social media talking about his company or himself. Can we say shameless self promotion much?!
