Our society amazes me, the most important things in life are big shinny things to show others how cool they are. The big faced watches are the most retarded things I have ever seen! "Uh, duh, I'm going to go spend thousands of dollars on a big faced shinny thing for my wrist so I can see what time it is and others can see how cool I am"
I can check the time on my cell phone for free (and it automatically adjusts for the time zones
)
Try buying an economical watch if necessary and donate the extra thousands to some starving family.
We live in a "Bling Bling" society. All about bragging rights....pathetic really. To spend your life in pursuit of material worthless (in the big scope of things).
I know a guy who was livin' it up. Had 2-3 houses, 2 businesses, cars, et cetera. Goes out gets more stuff he DIDN'T NEED. Hell why not? Well, now with our shitty economy, he can no longer afford his lifestyle.....so now he's looking at bankruptcy. He's one of those people who feels the need to "show off".
Personally, I live in a modest home. I drive modest cars (paid for at least). My buddy went out got a Hummer, because apparently, it was the "cool" thing to do.....hell, everyone is doing it, right? It's funny, I could have gotten one too, but fail to see why ANYONE who ONLY drives around town needs an all terrain vehicle. especially when that vehicle is a fucking gas gussler, and expensive to insure. Don't even get me started on the "environment" issue, as we can't expect the selfish to give a shit about conserving fuel......
