We are constantly searching for something exciting. I guess thats why we move. Sometimes its other factors like a job etc. Me, where I am is where I wanted to live.

It could also be that the items you have for sale are not what people are looking to buy.  What kind of items are you selling?  How old?  How used?  How damaged?  etc.

We live in a world where marketing has taken a standard of living from one essense to another.  People believe more is better and that they have to have everything, often the things that make life more entertaining or bring a higher status with them in the eyes of society.  \n\nIt's sad because when you realize what the true necessities in your life are you see that the luxuries are just cosmetic lifts...the necessities are those that give you life not take life from you.

This is a hard question.  I can't pick out just a few things that are my favorite ones.  I am kind of a funny person when it comes to my stuff.  I like to keep my stuff in good condition.  Guess it comes from not having much as I grew up.  I try to take care of everything I got.

A lot of people I know are brain washed that material possesions can bring happiness. It doesn't matter if they have to use credit, or step on others, they need these things now! I think its just a cry out for attention, even if its subconscious.

Do you mean wealthy as in have lots of money or have lots of things. People with lots of things usually are very poor. \n\nYou might want to read the Millionaire Next Door and then decide what do you really want. \n\nPerhaps your rich and just don't know it.

Thats what society and tv have done to us. They make it seem as if we dont have this or that we can not live a normal life. If we dont look a certain way, if we dont drive a certain car we will never be accepted. I think the people who focus on those things are just ones that are trying to fit in to society's label. The people without all the flashy things are probably the ones who have more money than they know what to do with, the reason I say that is because they dont spend money on nonsense and trying to keep up with everything/everyone else.

You know I wonder about that myself,I guess it has to do with the way women were raised thinking that a man should provide for them and buy them stuff, WRONG! if you want to have a nice house an a nice car then WORK for it I did!

Everything. I'm truly blessed because I have a great family and a beautiful baby, a roof over my head, food on my plate at meal time, and a car to drive. I have a bed to sleep in at night and clothes on my back. So many are without those things and for me to say I have not so much is just selfish and ungrateful. All of us who have those things should consider themself very blessed!

Some girls like bring alot of important personal things to anywhere they goes. They feel more secure if the important things are near by them. That's the reason they always bring many things in the purses and need a big purse.\n\nJoyce

Because people are never happy when they have something good, always looking out for something more exciting, ect... Instead of working on what they have. Good luck.

Even though we are on a tight budget, everyone will get a little something. It's just a way of showing the you care in my book.I have already started shopping, mostly mail order, it's so much easier, and sometimes cheaper.

Could it be that you are giving too much credcence to the actions of others.  Just be yourself.  Some will like you others won't.  You can't please everyone all the time.  The important thing to remember is you need to like yourself.  Learn to be comfortable with that and might be surprised at the number of friends you really do have.
