About this listen

What's the next thing you want to buy?

We all have heard of the phrase "money can't buy happiness", but what we don't realize is a lot of us are under the control of the media and advertising industry, and have been fed the idea that having more materialistic possessions can help you experience a much happier and more fulfilling life. This obsession with having fancy clothes, nice cars, or bigger houses has distracted many people from being kind, friendly, and respectful to each other. The materialistic mindset has also caused a large number of people to get into serious debt, which leads to financial stress that jeopardizes a person's health and well-being.

In this book, Grace Scott will introduces us to the consequences of materialism, and how materialism can have a terrifying impact on us. She will also show us exact steps we need to take in order to be free from this materialistic society.

Here is what I'll be sharing with you:

  • The materialistic mentality
  • Material possessions vs. happiness
  • Fun and non-material forms of entertainment
  • The remedy of materialism

This book gives us a great message.

I would recommend this book almost everyone, especially teenagers or people in their 20's who often buy a lot of things just to show off to friends. If there are more people who can be aware of materialism, the world would definitely be a better place to live. This book gives us a great message.

Decent content

The content of this book is good, though, a little shallow. It scratches the surface of the issue of materialism and provides some decent insight and advice. I would have likely rated this 4 stars based purely on content.

Dangers of Hoarding

I don't think I qualify as the target audience for this story. I don't hoard things. You can see more of my floor than you need to, I have plenty of places to sit, I rarely buy clothes. It's not just a book. It will change your whole life.
