洋洋:心涛,你知道LV吗?

心涛:你说的是法国的知名品牌吗?

洋洋:对呀,这个牌子的服装、皮包特别高档,尤其是皮包我超喜欢。

心涛:这个牌子的东西很贵的。

洋洋:那当然了,一分价钱一分货嘛。

心涛:你怎么突然想起来问我这个了?

洋洋:我看中LV的一款皮包,可是太贵了,我的钱不够,想找你借点钱。

心涛:洋洋,我说一句你别不高兴啊,咱们是工薪阶层,你这样有点儿太奢侈。

洋洋:怎么是奢侈,这叫超前消费。你看咱们单位的小刘用的包就是LV的,她还跟我说超前消费是现在的潮流。

心涛:我觉得你的消费观不对,我们应该学会节俭,不能盲目攀比,人云亦云。

洋洋:可是你上次不是还说我们要顺应时代嘛。

心涛:我说的是咱们的思想观念要与时俱进,在物质上一味地追求高档次是不对的,而且我们的收入也不多啊。

洋洋:你说的有道理,我不应该和别人比的。

心涛:这就对了,而且我觉得你现在用的那个包就挺好的。

YY: Xin Tao, have you heard of LV?

XT: Are you talking about the famous French brand?

YY: Yep, clothing and handbags from this brand are of exceptional quality, I'm especially fond of their handbags.

XT: Their goods are very expensive.

YY: Of course, one gets what one pays for.

XT: Why did you suddenly raise this topic?

YY: I'm in love with one of LV's handbags, it's really very expensive, I'm short on money and was wondering whether you can loan me some.

XT: Yang Yang, I'm going to say something, but please don't be unhappy (when you hear it), we're wage-earners (lit. working class), what you're doing is kinda too extravagant.

YY: It's not extravagant, it's called premature consumption. Just take a look at our colleague Xiao Liu, she's using an LV bag and she told me that premature consumption is the in thing right now.

XT: I feel that your concept of consumption is rather unbecoming, we should learn to be thrifty. We shouldn't keep up with the Joneses blindly and simply parrot what others say.

YY: But didn't you say before that we should flow with the times?

XT: What I meant was that we should keep our thinking abreast with modern developments. Being materialistic and blindly chasing after superior goods is not right. Also, we don't earn that much.

YY: You have a point, I shouldn't compare myself with others.

XT: Now you get it. Moreover I think the bag you're using right now is just fine.
