What if mom is out of date? Besides, I'm not allowed to spend money. Forty-seven years old, feeling very eager to buy. Quarrel when we meet, and feel that a thermos cup costs more than 100 yuan.

You can read the following article to understand why they are reluctant to spend money.

Next time you buy something, say it's a bargain of twenty or thirty, a white lie!

Mom and Dad, why are you always reluctant to spend money?

Whether you go to shopping malls, restaurants or cinemas, you will find that these places are now dominated by young people. Just buy clothes. Young people buy things lavishly, hardly bargain, and implement the principle of "buy if you like". But for the elderly, the price is always the first. They think it is too expensive, so they are determined not to start ... Two generations of different consumption concepts have collided at the moment: Mom and Dad have high retirement wages every month. Why can't they be reluctant to spend money?

Collude with the clerk to reduce the price, and my mother will buy it. When the reporter was shopping in the mall recently, he heard the clerk tell a story.

A daughter accompanied her mother to buy pants. The old man is over sixty years old. When he saw a pair of trousers he liked, he turned out the price tag and looked at it. "So expensive?" The old man left with his daughter. The daughter saw her mother's mind and asked her to try it on first. Then, during the interval when she was trying on clothes, her daughter privately discussed with the shop assistant about 380 yuan's pants 150 yuan. When her mother finished trying, the salesman told her, "Pants are on sale!" " The old man accepted it gladly.

This story is not a case. The post-70 s and post-80 s generation with certain economic conditions may have such parents who are reluctant to spend money. Young people probably have this knowledge: taking them out to eat is expensive; Give them money to buy clothes, and feel distressed without spending their money; Reluctant to take a taxi; Don't want to go to the movies ... enlighten them by enjoying life, but they won't listen.

Young people don't understand. Why are parents so upset?

Lao Wu: Be filial to your parents, but don't laugh at their consumption view.

After listening to this topic, Lao Wu felt deeply. "Our generation and the previous generation have suffered. We are used to hardship and thrift. "

Lao Wu admits that their generation has more culture and less culture. Although they have secondary school education or above, most of them have not received higher education. Since the era of planned economy, seeing the soaring prices, I feel that many things are worthless. For example, clothes are particularly expensive. They used to come in patched clothes. The better condition is to buy cloth and make your own clothes. "Because of the different cultural backgrounds and life experiences, we will count small accounts, and we will be frugal regardless of whether we have money or not." Lao Wu takes himself as an example. He has a private car, but he can still ride a bike and take a bus. He is reluctant to buy expensive clothes, and his wife and daughter will also "quote the price" for buying clothes for him. He feels comfortable in this way, otherwise he will feel uncomfortable. "There is a strange thing in Nanjing. The old man and the old lady wear red and green, but they are all cheap. "

So how is the consumption view of young people formed? Lao Wu thinks this is unique to this era. "The national policy of family planning began with the birth of children in our generation. We dedicated everything to children, so the consumption concept of the next generation we cultivated has changed. They didn't experience an era of clothes, and the old boss and the old penis were tattered for the old. When buying clothes, it was "it is better to buy a good one than to buy ten bad ones"; They pay attention to efficiency, so they bravely take a taxi when they go out. This is in line with their economic conditions, but don't forget that this is the cultural background and living habits cultivated by parents, and it is parents who cultivate their consumption concepts. "

As a result, two generations collided "When children have financial conditions, they want their parents to dress better and make some white lies. This is a kind of filial piety. But don't laugh at your parents. We must know that today's young people's worries about money are based on the hard work and efforts of their parents. "

Lao Wu is also worried that the current consumption concept has also developed a luxurious cultural background. "When our next generation of children are selfish and inflated, what will their consumption view look like?"
