Useless Junk: How to Have a More Spiritual Material Life

[...]This meme is on par with the similar one that calls men messy brutes. We know this isn't a general thing but one can understand where it originated and become exaggerated and twisted.

This meme also bothers me, as many men take pride in their home and will spend a lot of money having a nicely decorated home. It's very ignorant to say all men are messy brutes who will happily live in the type of apartment the other person posted a picture of.

My brother and I are a good example of this: I am a frugal person who does not like to spend money on superfluous things and this is reflected in my natal chart and my brother is a spendthrift who likes to spend his money on brand name clothes, expensive perfumes and similar things.

That thing about all women being spendthrifts is a stupid meme.

I'm a wise spender myself, I hate expensive brand name clothes, and love getting something nice on massive discount. One of my favorite dresses, beautiful colors, I bought for $10!
I hate them too them big brands. I think we've been conditioned since childhood to only like the big brands. I personally don't care about them, even clothes with no brand that are of good quality are great for me.

Not true, both can have their own issues. Aren't women the heavy spenders? ;P

Yes they are :D :D

How about not polluting these forums with jew-made memes. Learn astrology and about people. Many people of both genders are heavy spenders, and many people of both genders are frugal.

No need to course any commotion, i just thought it would be funny
My sincere apologies

According to the planetary energies of a man they can be "big spenders" as well and this can be from buying food to the point of having big bellies to someone who buys facial cleansing products, hair and beard care products, expensive colognes, technology, tools etc etc.

Each gender also has their own general way of acting but in no way as extreme as the mainstream jewish originated memes. This meme is on par with the similar one that calls men messy brutes. We know this isn't a general thing but one can understand where it originated and become exaggerated and twisted.

Yes i do know men can be heavy spenders, given on how many rich men like to flex off their properties

My point was to be sarcastic

The brand named stuff MOST of the time (not always) have better quality material and that's why they tend to cost more. Not all the times are we paying for just the brand name BUT there are still cases where you're totally right and it's better to go with the less known brand.

Just some more context, some cheaper brands are cheap because they are of either cheap material or made in 3rd world countries or both. Although, like Nike brand, they have expensive shoes but made in Chinese sweat shops.

One just needs to know more about the brand/off brand things they buy. Finding things in the thrift store or even garage/yard sales as Lydia might have alluded to and getting brand named clothes with good quality clothes is a good way to go.

For me, it depends. I go mainly for quality first, then looks, then occasion.

I can hardly find anything that fully satisfies my preferences for polos and similar, for example.

Even harder is finding sports clothes that aren't made of crap, anti-human fabrics like polyester and nylon.

That is true. Either you can't find them or they will cost a lot. You could try simply buying such clothing that is not labeled for sport.

I'll probably have a business making them at some point, and providing them for reasonable prices.
