You're projecting motivations onto other people. You may or may not be right but we've had several people who have indicated that's not their personal motivation. If you're accusing those posters of lying, maybe you're the grouchy one.

If you can afford it what's wrong with just having nice stuff? Do you have any pictures on your walls? Sometimes beauty is it's own excuse for being.
