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

Human
society
is changing rapidly and
core
values
such
as honour, trust and kindness are not as important as they use to be. It is believed by many that
money
has replaced those
core
human
values
and
people
are now analysed by their status. I partially agree with
this
point of view and believe that still there are some areas where humanity does matter
instead
of
money
.
To begin
with, there is no doubt that the way
people
live is now changed a lot and the most visible change in
society
is its hunger towards
money
. Everyone in the world is after
money
and
due to
this
fact
people
are now making connections with whom their status matches.
For example
, nowadays,
people
judge others based on their appearance and
then
give them treatment based on their judgement. Because of
this
money
-driven
society
, there are many other serious problems are raising like extremism and polarization.
On the contrary
, though
society
is changing rapidly and
core
human
values
are not as important still there are some places where
core
values
matter.
For instance
, when hiring an employee a recruiter does not focus on the candidate's status or wealth but his skills are checked.
Secondly
, there are still many
people
in
society
who value a human rather than
money
.
To conclude
, it is true that
society
has changed a lot and is now driven by
money
. But still, there are instances and
people
in
this
world who value the
core
aspects of being human.
