We can't afford it: confusions and silences on the topic of class
Article Abstract:
The true impact of social class lies on the issue of financial security. The irrational desire for large amount of money or property boils down to one's fear of a future financial tragedy. Furthermore, the enjoyment of financial security is affected by one's choices. For example, financial independence can be achieved by earning a large income or receiving a huge inheritance. However, the same independence can be attained by simply limiting oneself to the basic needs and limiting material possessions.
