IS SOCIAL MEDIA KEEPING YOU BROKE?

I decided to talk about this subject because on Facebook, Youtube, Instagram and etc.  I find that there are a lot of products being talked about and being shown.  I love to review products so I am guilty of this also, but I find that a lot of people are trying to purchase a lot of the products that are being shown or reviewed.

 We have always been enticed by products through Television Commercials but now Social Media have become another way for companies to sell products and some of us are not aware of the impact it has on our lives.

 There is nothing wrong with seeing products that you like and purchasing them, but, why are we purchasing them? I find that it is becoming an obsession with some people because they feel that if they do not have the latest Mac, Sephora, and etc.,  they are really missing out on something when the truth is some of these products are no better than some of the lower priced Cosmetics.

If you can afford these product there is nothing wrong with buying them, but, if you are taking money that you need for food, clothing and shelter , you may need to make a careful assessment whether you should perhaps pull away from Social Media to see if this will help curb your addiction and reliance on products.

Do we really need these products or are we just trying to fit in or convince ourselves that we are nothing without these things?  I am a saver by nature but I have at times purchased things that I really didn't need because I liked it on someone else. 




 



 
 
These items are beautifully packaged, but if you are impressed with packaging; how about we buy our own products and package them ourselves in beautiful majestic packaging and show our own creativity and perhaps even sell these products ourselves for a profit;  Just a thought.
