Dinnerware Sustainability

life with a business orientation and beliefs

The "large format" read the report "It is better to cry in a Ferrari," of candidates on the interdisciplinary study of economic and managerial (MSEM at UW). Moving

, so that those dziewiętnastolatkowie meticulously plan their future - even if unrealistically, with a huge urge to cash and the desire for prestige symbols. They know what you want to achieve - you have a luxury car when you work for 10 000, when the family - and the choice of study is part of their plan.

Moving is not for me, as the greatest emphasis is the author of reportage Sylvia Swede, that is, their focus on money, but just This planning. Because this approach is very, very different from what guided me in choosing my studies (or indeed inter-).
surprised when talking to humanists. They are like from another planet. They can not understand that humanists do not plan what the studios that do not care that they were going to the element.
That's right: me, humanist, not planned, at the college. Although it was not because he did not care. On the contrary - for my grudging attitude towards planning 'somehow it will "become convinced that it does not.

These people chose their studies, not only because they "have to live with dignity" (read: not imagine life without much money), but also because the "economics is the study of money and how they manage the world." Not only for pragmatic reasons, but also cognitive. Harm is to show them as people who were out of cash, no interest. Because they believe that if we teach economics, you understand the mechanisms governing the world. And this is something that the MSEM-sheep have in common: I believe that it is, what I'm learning (culture) is governed world and we understand these mechanisms. :-)

A focus on money, which Sylvia Swede in condemning these people? Well. I do not dare to throw a stone at the MSEM-men, because it seems to me that it was attaching so much importance to money feature of our culture :-). Postmaterialnego culture of capitalism, in which we all live, including Sylvia Swede.

U Edwin Bendyk read this brief history of consumption. Once the driving wheel of the Protestant ethic of capitalism, was: to work diligently, live modestly, to collect. But it resulted in being contented with little The Great Depression. They began to stimulate the economy so by appealing not to the needs that can easily be met, but the intangible desire. Today

consumption in developed countries focuses on goods, which - although they are more or less mainstream products - are entered for the ads in the mythical plan, so a quasi-religious. Buying a product, buy a promise of happiness, contentment, of being unique, being oneself or something related to our identity, or welfare, which is something other than wealth. Such mixing of the world products and the meaning of life refers the query "better to cry in a Ferrari." Apparently it is the distance MSEM ad-men to the myth. Except that, even though they know that Ferrari does not give you happiness, it really can not deconstruct postmaterialistycznego capitalist belief that the order of material has something to do with the order of emotions. That weeping and Ferrari have somehow to each other.

But a horse with a row and undying Respect for the man who knows his identity and unmistakably distinguish between their consumption.
