 more attention to money and usually put it in daily discussion topics,

about their

 and how they spend their necessities. There could be several reasons for
this
, and I consider it to be a very positive trend. Currently, money is considered to be one of the most important
things
 in life as we need to use it to purchase goods and pay for services. People have conversations about their
salaries
 because they need to determine whether their income is reasonable compared to that of their friends who work in the same industry. Apart from that, individuals

 their preferences because they need to know whether the
things
 that they used to purchase are sensible in terms of quality and price compared to others. In my view, the circumstances described above should be seen as progress. In case the

Moreover
, given that the

 and buy them in order to maximize the utilities of their budget. In conclusion,the rise of conversation about money between individuals is because it is essential for our well-being, and I believe that these developments are
