Write about the following topic: 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. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

In recent years, most
people
usually observe the illustration of
someone
else.
Someone
's belongings and social status are shown to play the main role in their life. Values like kindness, respect and trust have

. Obviously, it is a phenomenon that finds me the opposite. I believe that the value of every person is hidden in his principles and, generally, in his character. First of all,
people
judge by appearance because nowadays money has the most significant role in every family. I'm not sure how
this
started to occur but I think lots of years passed from
then
.
For instance
, if
someone
has a perfect look and drives a fast car, it is told by most
people
that he is a successful and good person.
On the other hand
, if
someone
has an old car and not a good appearance, he potentially is a bad person, maybe homeless, and
people
don't choose to make him a friend.
Additionally
,
people
usually don't take into account
someone
's character. Sometimes humans with good hearts become victims and
finally
have the most pain in their lives.
For example
, when
someone
helps all the time others, the
people
may take advantage of him and destroy him.
Furthermore
,
people
consider that good
people
are dumb, vulnerable and clinging to them, something that does not occur. In conclusion, I believe that society should reformulate its opinions because they are absolutely wrong. There are
people
with respect and a good heart who are
also
successful and they don't have a lot of things because they choose to live simply. These
people
deserve to be in our friends' circle. We must stop judging from appearance.
