Economic materialism
This article addresses materialism in the economic sense of the word. For information on the philosophical and scientific meanings, see materialism.
Materialism refers to how a person or group chooses to spend their resources, particularly money and time. Literally, a materialist is a person for whom collecting material goods is an important priority. In common use, the word more specifically refers to a person who primarily pursues wealth and luxury. Sometimes such a person displays conspicuous consumption.
Many believe that a "considered" and "realistic" form of materialism leads to economic behaviors supporting a sustainable community. For example, thrift shops and garage sales permit moderate materialism with little environmental impact.
