A person’s worth nowadays seems to be judged according to social status and material possessions. Old-fashioned values, such as honour, kindness and trust, no longer seem important. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

Opinions are divided as to whether social
status
and material possessions are the main things that use to judge the value of a
person
. In my opinion, I completely agreed that other out-to-dated values tend to be less crucial. There are various reasons why I firmly believe that in today's society a
person
will be judged by their
status
and the possession they have owned. After the advancement of social media, more people have been influenced by the invisible world which is known as the material society and
also
being
materialisms
Replace the word
materialised

unconsciously.
This
can be seen in wide societies throughout the world that a
person
who is rolling in money would be more respectful and gains social recognition.
For example
,
although
impoverished dwellers behave like great persons in communities, they eventually would be left behind and
also
pressed into the lower
status
.
As a result
,
this
kind of
person
who is kind, polite and honour is no longer being essential.
In other words
, wealthier that owns their large companies or sit in a high position, it is undeniable that there are more compliments compared with ordinary persons. Due to few residents can pursue that career and being a rich
person
is considered difficult to be.
This
is the main reason why social
status
could play a vital part in the existence that others will use to judge people in communities.
For instance
, those who work as celebrities, possess endless estates, fabulous houses and unreasonably expensive cars tend to be more wealthy in the eyes of other dwellers. In conclusion,
although
there may be some points that old-fashioned values are important, I strongly believe that our today's world has become more materialistic and value a human being by social
status
.
