Many would agree that the American Dream was an idealistic achievement of being successful in this country by working hard and climbing up the ladder. Fast forward to today and it's now about the image of success and doing anything to be perceived as a member of high society. We are all dying to be apart of this prestigious club that only few have access to. So how do we get a personal invite? Dive deep with us as we guide you through the materialistic journey it takes to be accepted. The dress code and rules to follow to be considered "in".

Today we give insight on how we as humans subscribe to global capitalism through fashion cosmetic surgery and other luxury splurges with the ultimate goal of obtaining the pinnacle of social status: money. We also discuss how to combat modern day materialism and what views we should cherish.
