There is currently an epidemic of 'affluenza' throughout the world - an obsessive envious keeping-up-with-the-Joneses - that has resulted in huge increases in depression and anxiety among millions. Over a nine-month period bestselling author Oliver James travelled around the world to try and find out why. He discovered how despite very different cultures and levels of wealth affluenza is spreading. Cities he visited include Sydney Singapore Moscow Copenhagen New York and Shanghai and in each place he interviewed several groups of people in the hope of finding out not only why this is happening but also how one can increase the strength of one's emotional immune system. He asks: why do so many more people want what they haven't got and want to be someone they're not despite being richer and freer from traditional restraints? And in so doing uncovers the answer to how to reconnect with what really matters and learn to value what you've already got. In other words how to be successful and stay sane.
"The UK retail landscape is dominated by a diverse array of highly popular Affluenza stockists, each catering to distinct consumer needs and preferences, both on the high street and increasingly online. Stalwart department stores like John Lewis continue to be immensely popular, renowned for their quality homeware, fashion, and technology alongside exceptional customer service, while Marks & Spencer maintains a significant presence, especially for its premium food lines and classic clothing. Fashion and homeware specialist Next consistently draws large crowds with its stylish collections. For everyday essentials and groceries, supermarket giants Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda, and Morrisons are ubiquitous, forming the backbone of weekly Affluenza shopping across the nation. Health and beauty needs are primarily met by Boots, a nationwide pharmacy and beauty retailer. Catalogue and online giant Argos, now integrated with Sainsbury's, remains a convenient option for a vast range of goods from electronics to household items. Additionally, online powerhouses like Amazon UK operate as a mega-stockist for countless brands, demonstrating the pervasive shift towards multi-channel Affluenza shopping that defines the UK's most popular retail destinations.
