These days, there
is a trend that people tend to buy popular brands such as Samsun, Apple, and
Microsoft. This is due to media which have huge influence on modern society. I firmly
believe that this phenomenon is a negative development because this can cause a
wide range of personal issues for many people around the world.
Generally
speaking, there are two reasons why people are likely to buy famous brands’
products. The main reason for this is a consumers’ trend. In the modern era,
people like to buy well-known items because they tend to show off their wealth
and power. By buying those products such as apple computers which are relatively
high-cost and posting on social network services like Facebook and Twitter,
they can make other people to believe that they have lots of money. A second
reason in favor of this is that advertisements promote people to buy famous brands’
items. The more celebrities make an appearance on TV commercials in order to advert
the products, the more famous products will be sold around the world.
However, the issue
that people prefer famous items more affects society negatively. A strongest problem
for this is that the price of the products is high. As many companies spend a
large amount of money to get its products famous, the price of products is
becoming higher and higher, which in turn leads to many people who are not
affordable for those products. The result of this is that only few people can
buy famous products which are expensive, which in turn leads to personal
problems for poor people such as isolation, depression, and demotivation.
In conclusion, the
phenomenon that many people want to get famous merchandise only like clothes, car
and other items has become very relevant to modern society. This issue has
negative consequences for many people. If the government ignore this problem, the
life of future generations will be worse.
