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

Nowadays, Social media plays a vital role in
this
 modern era. Some communities believe that
people
 are getting value based on their social
status
 and financial
status
 while some other communities argue with
this
 matter and they think that Old-fashioned values
also
 play a vital role for an individual. In
this
 essay, I will discuss both scenarios and
then
 I will give my opinion on
this
 matter. On the one side, In
this
 materialistic era, most
people
 are giving priority to social
status
 and financial
status
.
People
 are getting treated based on their wealth in recent times. Even a person with bad behaviour is getting treated well because of his/her financial
status
 or he/she is from a famous family.
For Example
, A hero's son is
also
 becoming a hero in the film industry even though he doesn't know the acting due to the hero's financial
status
 and fame. On the other side, Old-fashioned values have their importance too. Being kind to others, respecting elders, and being true to others
also
 have great value in some societies. Being true to others is more important compared to being wealthy.
For instance
, A person with old-fashioned valued like, honour, kindness, etc. is treated in a great way compared to a person with financial
status
. To sum up, I think, in
this
 modern and materialistic era most
people
 are given more importance nowadays meanwhile old-fashioned values
also
 have their own importance in
this
 society.
