I recall as a kid that a man in my neighbouring village
became popular for engaging in money
rituals just to buy the 80's edition of the
Honda Prelude. You wouldn't buy that car for
50k today.
I remember as a kid, my whole street
converged to watch a truck deliver a very
large satellite dish to my neighbour's house.
Today a dish ...one tenth that size delivers 5
times the value and is in almost every
student hostel room.
What of the Volkswagen Santana, Mercedes
Benz,V booth, all overtaken by Camry and
Honda discussions? .... Vanity.
A friend declared drinks for the boys because
he just launched the Nokia Communicator for
over a hundred grand in 2002. Today,that
phone would embarrass the owner (LOL) and
is a joke compared to the low cost and
everyday phone.
People still make the most amazing sacrifices
over the vainest of things, make enemies
over worthless material things. What can I
say? Look back at that one thing you want to
kill or die for today and see what becomes of
it tomorrow.
Slow down with the sense of attachment and
blind pursuit of things, for today's gold is
tomorrow's copper.
