This is a strange, rather perverse, story, just to put it in very simple terms. It's a story about us, people, being persuaded to spend money we don't have on things we don't need to create impressions that won't last on people we don't care about.
Esta es una historia extraña, bastante perversa para ponerlo en términos muy sencillos: es la historia de cómo nos persuaden, a la gente, de gastar dinero que no tenemos en cosas que no necesitamos para crear impresiones efímeras en personas que no nos importan.
