I always prided myself in not being materialistic but in the last couple of years its been all about brands and pointless purchases - my latest list of wants:
an i-phone
a macbook
Warp Records box set (£100 for some cd's)
a motorbike
a swish car
new trainers
a £30 rucksack i don't need
and loads of other guff
now i'm not in a well paid job at the moment to be able to afford any of this - what the hell happened???
You realised what the hell does it matter if you chose to spend money.
Now imagine them all taken away - feel better or worse?
please can you copy the warp boxset for me? 
have you somehow devalued your inner worth and are covering the gap ?
Haaaaaa haa hooooo !
bloody hippy nonsense, I just couldn't resist.
Everybody wants nice things.
We need you too spend us out of recession, you're very public spirited and I admire you greatly.
Why does it matter, so long as you're still you and haven't changed into a materialistic moron with no value for other things. While monks may have the moral high ground, unless you want to devote yourself to a manmade construct and beat yourself up for wanting material items just go ahead and enjoy them. In fact, why even question it. Unless you're looking for attention?
