Designer jeans (1966) were a successful twentieth-century attempt to make jeans fashionable as well as down to earth, thus raising their humble prices. Jeans themselves are not an American invention.

You know how people grumble about poverty as a great evil, and it seems to be accepted that if people have plenty of money, they will be happy and more useful, and get more out of life. Do you agree? The discussion can be based on the following aspects. What did you get from your own poverty? Are you really happy when you have enough money? What trouble does the money bring you in your life? 2. A millionaire who sprang from the ranks of the poor once said: “ I think a poor boy has a richer, more precious fortune in life than any rich man’s son. It is because I know how sweet and happy and pure the home of honest poverty is, how free it is from perplexing care, how loving and united its members may be in the common interest of supporting the family. I sympathize with the rich man’s boy who does not know what he has missed.” What’s your opinion about it? I don’t agree with the opinion. Obviously, it is wrong to lay great emphasis on money in our life. Money has always been what many people are thirsty for. To them, money means everything. They do not seem to know what money is for. They want it above all things. It’s the exclusive causal factor of their happiness. From my point of view, money is an important part of happiness, but happiness means far more than that. Happiness is a kind of human feeling that money can never buy. Physical health and mental well-being are both essential to life satisfaction. Love is fundamental to a person’s life satisfaction, too. Self-esteem, I believe, is another crucial factor that produces happiness. Therefore, we can never reckon only on money to achieve happiness. Money is a blessing when it is used rightly; it’s a curse when abused. So I don’t think you can get everything when you have money. We can get something far more than the happiness from money
