Well, look at what we all grow up with, especially the urban youths, their role models are usually professional sports players or rappers. Those are really good examples of how to budget your money. Plus there’s the ‘keeping up with the Joneses’ mentality, you are what you own, you’re nothing without the ‘bling, bling and the Bentleys’. Also it’s a kind of parallel to the people who are on welfare spending money on alcohol or cigarettes (or to a lesser extent, Pepsi). Do they need it? Not physically, but psychologically. The poor NEED to treat themselves to some luxuries; it’s what makes life bearable, even if it’s just a little bit more.
