    What is Luxury?*

    Luxury is not getting treatment from the most expensive hospital in USA.

    Luxury is *being healthy.*

    Luxury is not going on a cruise and eating food prepared by a renowned chef.

    Luxury is *eating fresh organic food grown in your own backyard*

    Luxury is not having an elevator in your house.

    Luxury is *the ability to climb 3-4 stories of stairs without difficulty.*

    Luxury is not the ability to afford a huge refrigerator.

    Luxury is *the ability to eat freshly cooked food 3 times a day.*


    Luxury is not having a home theatre system and watching the Himalayan expedition.

    Luxury is *physically experiencing the Himalayan expedition*

    In the 60s a Car was a luxury.
    In the 70s a Television was a luxury.
    In the 80s a Telephone was a luxury.
    In the 90s a Computer was a luxury...

    So what is a Luxury now??
    *Being healthy, being happy, being in a happy marriage, having a loving family, being with loving friends, living in an unpolluted place*

    These are the real " *Luxuries of Today*

    :hello:Thanks madam Sister for the post. I agree with your definition of luxury.

    But then whatever is desirable but difficult to achieve or get - ought to be considered luxury.

    What is luxury for one is ordinary for some one else. A poor consider his or her needs as luxury. My second coffee in the morning some decades back was luxury but now not so.

    With runaway-inflation triggered by pandemic, for many, ordinary events or foods turned out to be luxury. For some, Bislery drinking-water at ₹85 per can is luxury. Items what one cannot afford would remain luxury. For few affluents, having second or even third living spouse in chinna veedu is not at all luxury!
    Luxury is not uniform for one and all. With changing times, yesterday’s luxuries turned into ordinaries, mass production eliminate luxury. For ordinary folks booking a seat to go to space with space X is luxury.

    Regards.
