There was a time when people did not have careers. People did not live to acquire material wealth. People worked to earn enough for their families to eat that day, with a little extra saved for the Sabbath. Today we are slaves of the houses, the cars and the gadgets we must acquire.

Rabbi Shalom Ber of Lubavitch had a chassid who owned a boot-making business. Seeing how this chassid had become obsessed with his business, he commented, "Feet in galoshes I've seen. A head in galoshes I've never seen before." When wall-to-wall carpeting came in vogue in the fifties and everyone had to take a bank loan to have them, the Rebbe retold this episode and concluded, "At least boots are higher than the ground. But heads into carpets...!"
