    A scam I hate is maternity for 3 months. My Lord! Maternity leave should be 6 or 9 months. Aki going back to work with a 3 month old or 4 months(if you're employer allows you leave days) is so devastating.

    When it comes to over consumption, I am so glad I came to terms with the fact that these things are not going anywhere. More and more will be invented, and we will still want the new after new after new.
    When I tell people my husband has more clothes than me, they get shocked. I have 4 purses and very few pairs of shoes according to American standards. In fact I recently bought a new pair of flats for the summer because I had only one pair.
    I used to be a product junkie until I sat down with myself and said enough is enough. I cleared everything and decided that I use one face wash until it's done, and then I buy another one. One lotion at a time. This change of over consumption gave me so much peace.

    I think the reason why apple stopped putting charger heads in the boxes with the new phones is because sometimes people tend to upgrade their phones but when the charger is still fine and functioning. Considering the amount of materials and energy that goes into making them, I think it was a more eco sustainable approach.

    Monogamy is not a scam😂 This is God's original plan. One Adam one Eve. Most polygamous marriage were not successful in the Bible. The Bible also records everything. Just because it's recorded, doesn't mean you should do it. Look at God's original plan.

    • @rao023
      @rao023 Před 27 dny +1

      Most people do not want to agree with this. Polygamy kitambo was there for a reason. Either the wife is barren or maybe the man is looking for a male child etc and it was never a secret. These days, we have commitment issues whereby its okay to break covenants at the expense of pleasure. How is it that married people step out of their marriages in the name of looking for peace and in the process they end up transmitting diseases from one person to the other? How is it that we have normalized sleeping around. How have we normalized betraying one another?

    For the perfumes conversation, it is important to familiarize with the science behind fragrances and aspects such as sillage, projection, notes. alcohol vs oil base etc. If you are into fruity scents like citruses as top notes, chances are you will have to re-apply through the day.

This is very rampant in my profession- Agriculture where every successful farming activity suddenly makes you the master of say Quals or dragon fruit or apples! We have seen people get into investments that have no sounding data backing it hence the qual saga. Also could this be the reason why the government wants to register us? People need to just stop!

    hahaha, this episode is so funny. Lol, again, I can't relate to what you guys are saying when it comes to unintentional product consumption. This is the reason why I always think it's important to manage our awareness. Where your awareness goes, energy will flow and eventually you will feel the need to buy things you don't need. The only social media platform I access is CZcams. with CZcams, I intentionally select the type of channels to watch, simply because this is where I want my awareness to flow. With this type of practice, in most cases, I am not aware of a lot of things happening around me and this is OK. Listening to you guys talk about how influencers contribute to overconsumption, I am finding this part really unrelatable to me and I find it hilarious! Could social media be a scam?

    For products like Gucci and LV, you're buying the brand, the class, and the status it gives you to say and use their products. That's why their marketing is sooo good and they'll spend heavily on it. You're just paying for the name not necessarily the quality and style.

    On Monogamy vs polygamy
    I have no issue with polygamy but peole need to be honest. You have no business tying someone who is monogamous with you who is polygamous. Just be honest about it and you’ll find someone who is okay with it too.
    You can't be Monogamous in the streets and polygamous in the sheets. That is cheating!
    Be honest!
