Are Filipinos Brand Conscious?

[minicarph]

iba talaga ang thinking ng Germans

they really hate debt

and they prefer using cash

sa lahat ng europeans, Germans prefer cash the most

ah ganun ba, kaya pala gusto nila patayin mga Jews, mga Jews kasi nagimbento ng 5 6 sa europe

But doesn't it have to be consistent? Like a whole lifestyle. You can't just buy brands and expect people to think that you are rich hehehe

Naku hindi hehe. I know someone maporma who ate nothing but cup noodles at lunch to save enough money for a trip to Europe. Barely 1 month into it nagkaroon sya ng kidney stones.

I also have a relative who had about a dozen Rolexes at one time but only buys clothes from Kmart and eats fast food.

On the opposite side of the spectrum I know a guy in his 70s who never really spent much on himself. He might be a peso billionaire by now but he still gets around in an 20+ year old car. Wears Hanes white shirts na butas and slacks made by his tailor.

He definitely enjoys making money than spending it. Sad thing is, he's too old to enjoy it now. And probably still doesn't know how to.

Imho it's their call what to do with their money (and debt) naman. Besides, if everyone had good spending habits our economy probably wouldn't grow as fast.

Tama sabi ni uls. Hinde naman nakikita ang bahay pero ang kotse nakikita.

Hinde nakikita kung wala sa maintaining balance ang bank account Pero ang damit, bag, relo, sapatos nakikita.

Again. Ang barometer is kung meron Medical emergency ang kailangan magbayad ng malaki sa hospital.

There are those who are good at spotting discounts on branded stuff. For example, burburry drop the pricrs on their stock by ad much as 50% last week. The downside is the sizes are limited. Also there are pre-loved LVs, MKs, KS, prada and even hermes thAt you can get for a decent price. The question is - will it look good on you? A lot of foreigners buy class A copies at GH and nobody would think those are fakes when they carry it around. Pero take an ordinary employee na sasakay sa bus, jeepney or mrt na naka orig na LV diba may duda agad.

Weird e marami naman OFW na pinoy. Lahat ata pinoy may kamaganak sa abroad. If they can afford expensive items then they can probably afford to travel for shopping?

Si shadow alam ko sa US din namimili.

Iba kasi culture ng Pinoy. Masyado maporma kahit wala na halos makain. Makikita mo na lang sa province pag me fiesta, todo gastos talaga pinaghahandaan. Nagpapakatay ng baboy, nagpapaluto ng iba ibang putahe. Ipangungutang talaga maipakita lang sa mga kapitbahay na marami silang handa.

Speaking of "outlet stores", why is it na sobrang kaunti ng mga ganito and even factory outlets dito sa Metro Manila? Yung mga ganito ay nasa labas ng Metro.
