In general, I'm somewhat of a fan of the Kardashian's. I watch "Keeping Up with the Kardashian's" and "Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami" regularly, I find their antics to be amusing, and I feel almost a connection with Kourtney because we are both moms under similar circumstances... but today I almost felt an outrage toward Kim. I heard on the radio and then read here that Kim Kardashian spent $100,000 in handbags yesterday. In particular, she spent $30,000 on one bag! This pisses me off to the nth degree. The amount of money she spent on one handbag is the amount I purchased my car for, and I think I have a pretty nice car. There are families all across the country living off of 30K or less! 30K could pay for one year at a nice college or an entire degree at a decent college!
I know Kim works very hard and she earns her money. But maybe she's just a little overpaid. Or perhaps I'm just questioning her priorities. She could be putting all that money to a much better use considering all the people in the world that are starving or dying to preventable diseases. But most of all, I just wonder if she ever thought to herself for one second, "I know I can afford this handbag, but out of principle I shouldn't buy it because it's too much to spend on a handbag." I'd like to think I would. But then again, I only make a little more than what she spent on that handbag in one year.
