Of course we all love the basic necessity of life and I'd be lying if I said I didn't like to be comfortable but I can live very modestly and this is what counts I think, I don't need fancy clothes to make me happy but at the same time, I do like to look nice. I can go to thrift stores and shop. I'm not to good to wear a good used dress. I can eat beans and cornbread all year long.lol But I would rather eat a steak. I can do without the steak of course. I cannot do without food. I can live in a humble apt or a humble home but I cannot live without water and electricity. I also like my home to be clean. Now if you say that living without the necessary things in life is materialistic then I just may be but if you say that a person needs a bunch of things like perfumes and nice clothes, big homes then I would have to say this to your question I am not Materialistic at all. Because I don't need a lot of Fancy things to make me a happy women.

Count on unbelievers including atheists.
I think materialists represent 45% of the living population of the world.
God knows better!

Not me...
I've lived without anything but basic needs for a spell. I can live with or without. It's nice to have though. Makes life easier.
