How can you see worth? You cant.
You can too see worth. If someone's wearing all gold and diamonds they're rich.
Anything, even a piece of garbage can mean something important to you despite its monetary value.
Yes, but those things are important to you because of memories concerning them-- the ring you get your senior year and represents no memories. Thus, you solidify past memories into it by using something worth money. It's the same reason people get expensive sculptures done of dead important people.
I have a ratty old hat thats falling apart, but I wear it every day because Ive had it for so long and it means a lot to me. Its generally worth nothing, but to me it means everything.
Yeah, because of the memories associated with it. If you lost that hat and bought something to comemmorate it, you'd want to spend a lot on it because that's how much it meant to you.
Your post just makes you sound like a snobby rich kid. Did your parents buy you that watch?
Obviously. And no, nothing about it made me sound snobby. Do you know what snobby means? Is money so scarce for you that you qualify in the "low socioeconomic status" group that always tests lower than the normal kids?
I work for my money. A month's pay isn't wroth a ring.
If you make $250 a month you are doing something wrong. At national minimum wage that means you're working 34 hours a month, on average 8 hours a week. That's below part time. And yes, it is. Things that commemmorate other things are meant to be lavish. It's irrefutable. Important things are ALWAYS memorialized with expensive things. You know that underground army in china that protected their emperor's grave? It's how human psychology works. Expensive things retain memories better than cheap things.
