Buying dumb shit is the sort of experience the rich can afford that puts such a perspective on life that allows you to then shoot for more fufilling goals/works/community. All the fairy tales in the world arent going to teach you better than living the experience of excess.
- oblio 6y agoNot everyone outgrows this though. I'd argue that most don't, even. Case in point, Trump.

- Damogran6 6y agoThat's the things bout economics...there's dumb shit you can buy at EVERY LEVEL! My boys are experiencing they first stead incomes at 18 with their first non-home-chore jobs. They're spending some of that money on Hotwheels, and personally, I'm happy letting them experience that, they save a little, they spend a little, they get hooked on getting things they want...because it incentivizes them to be successful.
