Categorically speaking, in my country people feel proud over the luxurious house and branded cars. Even, great job status in civil and armed services is also charming. There is no cap to such things rather people are moving ahead in this race and their priorities are also wild in nature.

Do you think it was different for your grandparents?
Broadly speaking, such things were too important but their form and nature was different. In past, they used animals as status symbol. The species of horse and other animals counted a lot in this regard.

Modern society is often called ‘materialistic’. Why do you think this is?
As per my point of view, this is the age of materialism because today people need luxurious life. They want to acquire grandeur in their life. So, they are working hard irrespective of validity of their preoccupations. People are hunting their means of earning wildly.

Thematically speaking, it has both positive and negative development. People spend a lot of money on purchasing products which are usually unnecessary. This is called negative development. On the contrary, it introduces different products and creates competition in the market.

What is the role of advertising?
Well, advertising has a great positive role in the expansion of business. People get awareness regarding the features of different products and services as well. It makes people decide to use a product or hire a service. It is allowing people to decide for final purchase with the help of advertising.
