The rational consumer

I believe rational consumers exist. And I am a rational consumer right now. There are some steps and reasons about why I become a rational consumer as follows:

MY Time line:

First stage, as a Hedonist: I was a hedonist after gratuated from aviation school. I travel to everywhere around the world and keep shopping everything with my credit card.

Second stage, as a purpose oriented consumer: The injustice of being treated by the system and society, and the long-term chronic suicide life gave me a strong life purpose. When I flight more than 9 years, I realised this lifestyle is not what I desire. Keeping shopping, traveling, surfing the internet, watching short vedios all these things is like slow suicide.

All these bad things happened let me can’t wait to change my life, but hedonist experience let me into endless debt. And former lifesyle let me lost ability to change my job or my life environment.

Eventually, I cut every nonessential cost and sold every nonessential items. Only focus solely on studying new abilities, broadening my mind, preparing for a new life, and accumulating assets. Become a rational consumer.

My experience about why I believe everyone should become a rational consumer:

A rational consumer not refer to consider everything before buying. But we have to give ourselves a chance to alive independently. And rational consumer style more like a preparation of future in my perspective. Protect us to avoid contemporary slavery created through consumerism and advance consumption. People and citizens have right to protect ourselves but only when we have the power to control our own destiny will our right be valued and carried out. In case, in the future, we want change our lifestyle, be a rational consumer and find your life goal.
