I think that materialism can be seen in people’s attempt to buy the best and the most modern things for themselves.
     In our community teenagers are divided into two groups. In the first group, there are teenagers whose parents earn a lot of money and in the second, there are ones without rich parents.
     The first group is usually materialistic. They thought, I think, that they have to wear designer labels and if they don’t they are not “cool”. In my opinion, they are materialistic from the birth because their parents want to buy the best things for their child.
     Teenagers of the second group don’t have enough money to buy designer clothes. So they wear less expensive clothes or hand-made ones. And even if they want a well-paid job they do it just because they want better life for their parents.
     As for me I suppose I’m just a bit materialistic. I like good things but it isn’t the most important thing for me.
