As we all know, businessmen never show their weakness in negotiation and dealing, which leads to a dramatically increase of luxury goods consumption.

For instance, my five-year-old little sister once told me that she didn’t want to make acquaintance with those who wore poor skirts and clothes. Why is so? That was because she was addicted to tiktok , which provides millions of videos, such as the daily life of rich men, the makeups of well-known movie stars, love stories of CEO and wealthy girl. These videos convey a kind of value system that luxury goods are connected with a bright future and a decent life. With the popularity of such apps, young generations may spend their parents’ hard-earned cash on such unnecessary and costly consumption.
