Trananan rene doesn't specify, but i assumea or maybe, maybe, maybe year. That's a case in point. If we're not in the status game of that so called stupid person, we wil dismiss them. Status games really do bend and change our perception. And they speak to people, and me, they stand my problems.
Does owning a big house and supporting ‘correct’ social causes not just make you feel good about yourself but actually make you healthier and live longer? The answer is yes. This is just one of the fascinating findings that bestselling writer Will Storr shared with Intelligence Squared on September 16 discussing the themes of his new book The Status Game. Storr argues that it is our irrepressible craving for status that ultimately defines who we are. As he puts it, ‘If you want to rule the world, save the world, buy the world or fuck the world, the best thing to pursue is status.’ And research shows that without sufficient status, we suffer more illness and live shorter lives.
