7. In our society, most rappers rap about how much money they have and how rich they are and how they spend their money. They rap about all the luxury items they buy with their cash and how they "make it rain". Like most athletes, these rappers have little concept of the fact that their money could and will run out. Music is a big part of our lifestyle so it makes sense to assume that if you (ex. an athlete in this case) came into a great amount of money, and all you're hearing on the radio is "making bank' and having all this "ice", you would feel like since you now have all this money, you can attain these luxury items without having to worry about the cause or the aftermath. Music should not influence how people spend their money, yes it seems cool to be able to and its ok to buy nice things for yourself, but it is very crucial to have an understanding that you're money won't last forever.

I agree with that statement. So people need to stop spending lot of money and need to invest to get more money. rather rich or wealthy. Rich is a short term deal and Wealthy is a long term deal.
ReplyDeleteJulia, I agree that you should understand that your money will eventually run out if you do not save well. Also, I agree that music should not influence what you buy but it does.
