Rich Kids of Instagram

03:42:00

Money runs the world. It's no news that people can do a lot for money. The money can buy expensive bling, nice clothes, cars, and houses. Of course, it cannot buy you love, but a form of admiration and following can be achieved by flaunting the insides of your pockets. For some, the label is a status symbol. It distinguishes you from the masses, it proves that you can afford something, while others have to resort to mass produced items. You can go on a shopping spree, not paying attention to your account balance, without being worried that it's the end of the month and you're a bit short of cash. But is the life of rich and famous really that different from a standard life? Does having n number of bags mean that you're a better person than the ones who have one bag that covers all their needs, and, to make matters worse, it's without the label? Does having more bring you happiness? Is luxury a deluding force that makes people believe that billions slightly less well off are any less special? Are Rich Kids of Instagram any different from every kid on the planet, or just equipped with more toys?

On the nature of pictures

*Every Google image belongs to someone and this someone should be noted. However, if pictures are scenes from the film they most probably belong to owners of the film/producers. I use saved screens of the Google compilation of pictures, thus the pictures of pictures, which I take, cut and edit myself (as a derivative use). They are used for reviewing purposes (fair use), not for diminishing the films' profits by stealing what rightly belongs to them. Copyright is tricky, let's get used to it.
