Will you show off luxury items online?
We many girls like posting photos of their famous brand bags, cosmatics, shoes, clothes. Some even posts in front of lavish cars and houses. They claim they're rich, having many credit cards. How do you think of their behaviors? Do you think they're real rich or just chaozuo?

mmm... I also found that whenever a poster posted her "luxury" items. like shoes, cosmetics and bags, there are always some people replied with bad words, such "I have much more expensive goods than you", "Your stuff are too cheap and old. You're lose your face by showing up these things here". What do you think about these comments? For myself, I don't have money to lavish things so I don't understand how they can frequently purchase commodities with famous brands. Do them all spend their own money?

In my opinion, the luxury items cost their parents a lot whether their families are affluent or not. Maybe many people truely have greatly
wealth, but it's wrong to show off. In our society, many people are living impoverished, they even can't support themselves.

I have little money so I can't afford brand things;
And of course I have no capital for showing up myself .

Although I don't have money to lavish myself, I don't envy others for their lavish luxury stuff.
I'm more content with a rich mind and heart. But if others would like to show off their possession of such materials. Allow them, why bother?? Everybody has the right to show off as long as it's no harm, isn't he??

ok,buddy , be easy, I don't think it is a serious problem, if girls show something on their blog or website, that is their own choice. we could't get a judgement that these girls are superficial and skin-deep solely depend on what kind of stuff and the price of these stuffs or whether they are famous brands or not.
our tradition and culture always taught us that we should keep low profiles and be aware of those people with green eyes when we get something valuable. but i think it is human instinct to show off something unique we have while other people don't possess to get a sense of superiority and confidence. maybe it is a little pathetic, but I firmly believe that most people will feel satisfied when they receive some compliments on their assets. so I think it is acceptable of those girls who show off their stuff on internet.but they should thinking about how other netizens would response when they find something so expensive that they couldn't afford and what kind of remark and comment they will make.

just like this post [url]http://club.women.sohu.com/main.php?c=4&b=jewel&a=597170

they are "shaike", in chinese we call them 晒客，it's derived from the word "share". They not only share their famous branded things, but also share their feelings and thoughts

it seems that you had ask a very beautiful question, in our culture, famous brand clothes , sparking cars, roomy house are all symbols of success and social status. so it did't strange that man will show off their cars to his buddy, woman will show off their bags and cosmetic products . we all want to be admired and be the focus of other people.or psychologically speaking , we are all self-absorbed and self-center.you are not going to deny that,am i right?
the other fact is nowadays people emphasize outer beatuy and inner beauty is no longer the focus.time certainly changes.
there are no direct connection beween obsession with luxury products with self-confidence.different people may have different financial situation and different consuming habit whether they confident or inconfident that depend on individual case

my point
first , money is not the whole story in our life , the guys who show off luxury online are the real poor guys .
some are rich in thinking , through they do living a poor life , they happy , they enjoy it
some are rich in metarial , they get a lot of money , they can buy anything they want , but do they have real happiness ? I have no idea ....
actually , we need money in all parts of our life . but , please do not only keep money in your eyes ...
that is the most lamentable thing in the world .

maybe when the posters show off their brand things they do not think so much.maybe for showing off or they just want to express their joy of owning these things.

plainly to say i do not agree with the posters showing off their luxury goods.i think if you have money,and if you like the famous brand goods,that is enough,you can buy it,because you like it,you are happy to have it.But it is not necessory to let others all over the world know it.On the contray ,i can understand this kind of girls,i remember when i was in the college,anyone has a new thing,almost all the girls go to see it and talk about it ,even try it,it was interesting.but the thing i know is not very famous,not luxury,not expensive.
