Are We Materialistic Much?

Sunday, February 6th, 2011

I believe so…

I am not going to deny it.  I appreciate the finer things in life. I think the Bugatti Veyron is one fancy ride. Balmain & Balenciaga are two of my favorite fashion designers.  I find the Tom Ford Spring 2011 collection to be quite appealing. Let’s not forget to add that yes I do wish to own a beautiful summer house on an Island in Greece, Spain or possibly the South of France. Does that make me materialistic? Possibly.  Let us assume, I had all these things the Bugatti, a hedonist yacht, the latest Tom Ford collection would I be happy? Surely I would, plus I would probably have quite a good number of friends who appreciate the same things as me.
