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?

Some people believe that economic and social status are the factors to value an individual's worth today, and

to have. First of all, I believe that kindness and

are more valuable than money or reputation.

In other words

, being kind to others has no limit of time or value

money or popularity can be gone at any time. Even when a star dies, what people tend to remember is not how famous or rich she was but her kindness and

the behaviour of individuals.

Besides

Therefore

Secondly

, self-respect and

trust

are other great keys to valuing someone's worth. Because life is to experience, and

that is

what makes us honourable and trustworthy beings. My point is, in order to gain respect and

trust

, the individual needs to undergo lots of struggle and difficulty that could carry on their entire life which is incompatible with material possessions

such

as money or recognition which can be gained and disappear at any time.

For example

, Nelson Mandela was a person that we still remember today because of his contribution and

honour

towards human rights to fight racism.

Thus

honour

are irreplaceable compared to any person's wealth. In conclusion,
