People nowadays work hard to buy more things. This has made our lives generally more comfortable but many traditional values and customs have been lost and this is a pity. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

In the modern world, where many competitions,
people
are trying to surpass each other.
This
forced them to work hard, due to be more competitive, because today the
people
are estimated by their
money
and cool things. There are opinions that it will harm
people
's traditional values and customs, and it is not good. I agree with
this
statement for several reasons, which I will explain below.
Firstly
,
people
really mostly pay attention to the material condition: how much
money
, do they have any brand clothes or not, do they have a car, a house? On the one hand, these are requirements of a comfortable
life
. Today so many stuff, which is a necessity to household,
for example
, refrigerator, washing machine, furniture and other kinds of stuff for home, at least, houses and cars are rising in customs every year. Everyone wants their own home and another thing for
life
. These things are expensive, so
people
work hard to earn more
money
to have enough
money
for
life
On the other hand
, some
people
spend huge amounts of
money
to look rich, buying expensive stuff. To watch of
this
tendency, some
society
Fix the agreement mistake
societies

that they forget traditional values and customs. Because the
people
can not influence to changing world. They are mainly concerned about the quality of
life
and
being

an important part of
this
world. They need to work hard and be more educated to be at the forefront. In conclusion, I agree that no one thinks about traditions while they are busy making a living and surviving.
