Lesson 1 - Sample Answer

The document discusses consumerism and financial awareness. It talks about money and how it is a medium of exchange used to purchase goods and products. It also discusses how people in consumerist societies feel happy when making purchases and believe that material possessions can fulfill their lives. However, the document expresses the opinion that while modern life requires many possessions to live securely, constantly pursuing physical possessions will not actually make people happy in the long run. People are more susceptible to advertising than they realize and hope to impress others and gain respect by displaying their possessions. Ultimately, overreliance on material things stems from seeking to satisfy discontentment or find confidence through possessions rather than addressing underlying issues.
