"Conspicuous consumption."
Thorstein Veblen coined this famous term to describe how the wealthy use money not for needs, but to signal their status to others.
A biting satire of the Gilded Age that remains hilarious and relevant. It explains why we buy designer brands and luxury goods: to prove we don't have to work.
