Topic 24 My View on “Moonlite”
Moonlite is a term referring to those people who exhaust their earnings
every month without any savings. With the acceleration of globalization, it
seems that the availability of various commodities has put more and more people
into the category of moonlite. And these people are even proud of this unique
life style. The moonlite brag their behaviors as a fashionable way to live a
life.
But we have to admit that problems exist in both their beliefs and
behaviors. Firstly, industrious and economical concept has been Chinese
traditional moral excellence. And moonlite has violated the belief seriously.
Secondly, no savings will place themselves in a difficult position in case of
possibly unexpected expenses. Thirdly, this immoderate consumption habit may
subconsciously infect their self-controlabilities, which can result in serious
consequences.
In my view, though the moonlite may acquire temporary satisfaction from
immoderate consumption, in the long term, it will deteriorate their personal
financial levels. For majority of people, their income is limited and
unnecessary expenses should be avoided. We should always bear this sentence in
mind: “Live within your means and save for a rainy day. ” |
