While I agree with the sentiment, I don't think her arguments are very strong.

I personally think people make bad decisions to buy things or do things not on the premise of it being an "investment", but because most of us are very weak.

We do the things we do because we are victims to advertising and peer pressure. You think they spend billions on advertising for nothing?

If you read this and you are thinking, "No I am not." You are 1) in denial 2) above average. If you are above average, then you should realize averages exist because half of the people are below it.
