Money and advertising.

Honestly, I consider myself a simple person and don't a consumer's person. There isn't denying that today, we live in a world steeped in capitalism and this makes us people who need to consume in an unbalanced way, going beyond the basic needs.

However, I don't follow this trend. I know very well manage my money, I buy what I need and I am a very thrifty. Usually I buy in business near my home. I also go to the mall or supermarkets but this I don't constantly.

Personally, I respect the marketing and advertising but I disagree with that try to impose things or force to the people to think in a certain way. An example of marketing and advertising are cigarettes and alcohol, with respect to these issues I disagree because don't point to a healthy life. I disagree with that will spread the consumption of these elements that threaten the lives of people, I think it would be optimal to disseminate campaigns in contrary of cigar and alcohol.

As I mentioned earlier, I am not a consumer and I will not pretend to be never . I know what I have and what I can spend, therefore, the consumerism don't go with me.

I think this consumerism has been established by the capitalist economic system, and that through marketing and advertising, are induce people to act and think in a certain way. Finally, I think the only way to end consumerism is to reform the economic system. Is necessary a good economy for all the people !!!
