‘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”
If social media doesn't have a “Like” or “Comment” feature, there is just a post and claim… The consent of others is “intermittent variable compensation.” Without compensation, we can't sustain to do anything. It is a problem even if there is always compensation. This is because compensation is taken for granted. If so, the rewards you take for granted will not function. It is “gambling” that this “intermittent variable compensation” works well. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
