Some people argue that spending a lot of money on wedding parties, birthday parties and other celebrations is a waste of money; however, others believe that it is important for individuals and for society.
Discuss both views and give your opinion.
In today’s society, the scale and expense of celebrations, ranging from weddings to birthdays, have increased significantly. Some believe that splurging on these events is nothing more than an unwise expenditure, while others argue that these celebrations have pivotal importance both personally and socially. This essay will first closely examine both views before showing my final thoughts.
On the one hand, opponents of extravagant spending on celebrations often highlight the financial burden it places. Weddings, for example, can cost the equivalent of a year’s salary or more, plunging many newlyweds in debt at the very outset of their marital journey. Similarly, birthday parties, with their rising demand for unique themes, venues, and gifts, also drain the pocket. Critics of these events often argue that this money could be invested in more enduring ventures, like purchasing a home, higher education or even savings for unforeseen hardships, providing long-term security rather than ephemeral pleasure.
On the other hand, proponents of extravagant celebrations often emphasize their important role in individual and societal wellbeing. On the individual level, they mark life’s milestones. For example, a wedding is not just a mere celebration; it is a public affirmation of a couple’s love and commitment. By the same token, birthday parties, particularly for children, play an important role in shaping their self-esteem and understanding of social dynamics. The joy, memories, and bonding that such occasions foster cannot be quantified in monetary terms. On the societal level, these events can promote social cohesion. Celebrations are often grounds for reunions, rekindling relationships and reinforcing social bonds.
In light of the aforementioned considerations, I believe it would be prudent to approach celebration spending with moderation. While recognizing the psychological and social importance of these events, individuals should be encouraged to live within their means, prioritizing their financial health. This approach can ensure that these celebrations benefit both individuals and the broader community.
