The Status Symbol Situation

Status Symbols - Understood as the apparent, interpreted, and an external indication of the social, economic, and market position of an individual.
The "New iPhone" or the latest "Tesla" are just a few symbols of how society perceives a person's status. But does any of that shit really matter?
I mean, who actually cares what phone you use, or the car you drive?
In this world of dropshipping, e-commerce, and 'Tiktok Creators-turned-Brands', I take a dive into my thoughts on these forms of 'status symbols' and talk about what really matters --
__ Integrity and Quality
As some of you may realize, this isn't my usual content style -- but it is one I'm passionate about and plan on making more of in the future.

    I appreciate it! and I think we all do at some point of course! I hope I didn't come across judgemental! Really just wanted to bring it to the attention of whoever might need to hear it! Thanks again for watching the video (I hope all the way through??) and being probably the first viewer. Mad respect

    I’ve been trying to focus more on cost effectiveness than big brands, there are very few things where the big brand is, honestly the better value because it’s a big brand

    yeah man, I agree. just make the best choice for whatever it is your trying to do. even when it might not be a cool of as brand, the status means nothing for sure
