In my opinion, if he wants to waste his money, he should be able to waste it. I don't think someone(thing) else should control a person. A person who is weak in such an issue should be able to suffer the consequences when they do come. Now, if it directly hurt someone else, I would not be so "capitalistic".
I am in full agreement with yoyo when it comes to not purchasing or using something because of emotions. And intentionally impressing someone else for no reason other than being impressive is nothing more than pride.
