Do you agree people are materialistic?

I've traveled around nearby towns and I've seen people carrying Michael kors bags, huge brand watches, Louis, ray bans and all in work clad neighborhood. Yet there are people who are renting small portions or houses there. Even Instagram all you see is apple freaks and people who brag about their designer stuff. More people are acting like the iphone is what gave them life. And then you hear people say they are in recession lol

As soon as people make money, they almost always become materialistic

Some are and some aren't

I'd say yes most are, but there are those few (like me) who doesn't buy into being materialistic.

I was once upon a time when I was married then I left him and he kept everything including my car and cat. I learned that things are things and can always be replaced and what matters most in this world is to have a good soul and love your family and friends unconditionally.

I'm not sure. Let me get my iPhone out of my Prada bag so I can Google the the subject using my touch screen friendly gloves.

Yes people are. I'm one myself it is a dreadful thing. Donot develop the habit, it is hard to break away from

We live in a time of extreme Materialism. We have so much, and yet we complain about the most trivial things. Depression is on the increase, satisfaction on the decline- and yet we have never enjoyed so much wealth. It's not healthy.

It really depends on the person. A lot of people who are poor are materialistic because they are in denial. Some people who used to be rich or at least middle class, have gotten broke because of the recession, but they just don't want to give up that lifestyle. I've seen it happen in my family.

I DON't EVEN KNOW WHAT MATERIALISTIC MEANS

Yes I do, a lot of people in this world seems to be ultra materialistic in this day and age

If you're on YA, you're materialistic to a good degree.

  • Why do they keep asking to agree the terms & conditons? In the app store on my iphone i'm trying to install the tumblr app and this pop up asks to agree to the terms & conditions and I have like a billion times but it still won't allow me to download the app without agreeing to the terms and it's really annoying
  • Steve Jobs is a jackass. Do you agree? And are you satisfied with your tiny iPhone with a tiny 4" screen? And the most annoying of all is to have to press the tiny Home button every time for a small task?
  • IPhone software update. I did not agree to the terms and conditions and it downloaded anyway. Are there legal ramifications for Apple? My iPhone software updated overnight and prior to this I would always decline any software update and stayed on 10.1 iOS. I woke up to find the software was updated to 11.3 without my consent or agreement to the terms and conditions. That beeing said, what law, or rules were broken by Apple?
  • How to stop being materialistic and jealous? My girlfriend just got an iPhone 6s and I'm being irrationally jealous of it. I'm 18 and I still don't have a working phone. I play sports and I'm trying to go to college and play a sport so I really don't have time for a job and my parents don't believe in spending money on stuff like that. I know it's materialistic and stupid but I feel really jealous of her. I don't really know how to handle it.
