‘Luxury’ has a moral original sin because it is impractical and creates a sense of incongruity between the relatively rich and the poor. Thus, it is true that ‘luxury’ also carries a negative image. However, the rich do purchase luxuries regularly, with a few practical exceptions. This is because luxury items not only incur less depreciation, but their resale value often exceeds the purchase price over time. Think of luxury handbags or jewelry. To preserve or increase wealth, you must have an eye for luxury. This doesn’t mean you should live in luxury; rather, it highlights the challenge of maintaining your accumulated wealth unless you change your habits and attitude toward acquiring assets. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Those who value ‘justice' and ‘morality' tend to regard even a little ‘exaggerated’ expression as ‘false’ or ‘immoral.’ They also reject ‘rhetorical exaggeration' to emphasize expression. But ‘exaggeration' is only important for its ‘intention and purpose’ and is by no means ‘false’ in conveying meaning. ‘Rhetorical exaggeration’ is not a fabrication, but an emphasis. Rather, people want to prove their own integrity, and then push the ‘rhetorical exaggeration' to the one side as it is false and use that 'rhetorical exaggeration’ as a way to intimidate someone who used it is immoral. - Joseph’s "just my thoughts"
