this has been stuck on my mind for a while, i have many siblings and a sister who is 20. I am 18. she is entering college soon and also plans on getting married, now when she speaks about the type of man she wants to marry she speaks of him as wealthy, flashy and buying her luxurious goods in an expensive penthouse. she wants a man who wears the newest Patek Philipe watch, the newest Rolex, the newest porsche 911 turbo. now, this is not just my sister. i have seen this in my brother as well, hell i even seen it in myself. He wants a BB belt, jordan black cats, a moncler coat etc. this materialism has a choke hold on the whole world but it has a horrible one on the somali people. mothers who buy unneeded rugs and goods from Karamel and 24, brothers who buy $1,000 Amiris and $600 belts. this is normal, but an unhealthy burden on our people and the human race. one day people will realize the goods they own will end up owning them.
