Consumerism Identity

Daily writing prompt
What’s something most people don’t understand?

People need to understand that the things you buy are not your identity.

Buying an Apple product doesn’t make you classy or high status.

Buying an Android doesn’t make you poor or nerdy.

Buying simple clothes in designer brands for 10X the price to be considered rich.

Buying clothes in from local stores make you uncivilized.

These are products. Products that serve a purpose.

Don’t make them your identity. Be a fan, sure, but don’t attach your being into something you own.
