Seeing the movie “Joy” starring Jennifer Lawrence, Robert Deniro and Bradley Cooper is definitely on my after Christmas list but does Joy & Home Shopping itself go together? The movie deals with an individual who is down on her luck and is able to start a business through the T.V sales on the “Home Shopping Network”. Many marketing entrepreneurs making a killing milking those who aren’t the least pregnant. My point is the consumer who buys these products may experience joy at the moment of the sale but then feels the pain of the bills that come in later that month. Many of these consumers are pushed to buy products they don’t truly need and can’t really afford because of a slick marketing campaign? I agree in the saying “buyer beware” and of course in the free market but these items aren’t free and cost many of these consumers (who are the least informed) their shirts and pants. Therefore maybe the movie should have been called “Joy and Pain” but then who would buy the tickets.
