A love for material goods

（单词翻译:单击）

A lawyer was driving his big BMW down the highway, singing to himself, "I love my BMW, I love my BMW." Focusing on his car, not his driving, he smashed into a tree. He miraculously1 survived, but his car was totaled. "My BMW! My BMW!" he sobbed2.

A good Samaritan drove by and cried out, "Sir, sir, you're bleeding! And my god, your left arm is gone!"

The lawyer, horrified3, screamed "My Rolex! My Rolex!"
