All the frustration she experienced as a child led her to develop an addiction to shopping, so compulsive that she was harassed by debt collectors. Unable to pay her debts, she ended up hiding from them and telling lies, such as saying she was traveling in Finland.
However, that addiction made her tell lie after lie, and when she lost her job, she managed to find one at a financial magazine. But how could Rebecca give financial advice when she was in debt? The truth is that she wrote excellent articles; she was bold, fresh, and authentic, and that made her stand out. She shopped compulsively and then felt guilty. Unfortunately, that debt collector hounded her so much that he ridiculed her in a television interview.

Después de eso, perdió su trabajo, termina su relación, se pelea con su mejor amiga y continúa su deuda; Pero justo en ese momento llega su gran oportunidad de trabajar en la revista de moda, lo que ella siempre quiso; sin embargo, ya ella se había golpeado mucho y entendió que comprar de manera compulsiva solo la había llevado al fracaso y que las revistas de moda solo alimentaban esa adicción tanto en ella como en otras personas.
Ahora bien, quiero confesar que esta película encabeza la lista de mis producciones favoritas, he perdido la cuenta de las veces que la he visto y nunca me canso o me aburro. La verdad es que me siento identificada con Rebecca, lo que más deseaba después que me gradué y comencé a trabajar era tener una tarjeta de crédito y efectivamente al tenerla lo primero que hice fue gastar, obviamente no llegue al punto de endeudarme como Rebecca pero si estoy consciente que utilizó las compras como terapia y como método para sentirme mejor cuando algo me ocurre o simplemente cuando tengo un bajón emocional.
After that, she lost her job, ended her relationship, fought with her best friend, and continued to accumulate debt. But just then, her big break came: a job at a fashion magazine, which was what she had always wanted. However, she had already hit rock bottom and understood that compulsive shopping had only led her to failure and that fashion magazines only fed that addiction in her and in other people.
Now, I want to confess that this movie tops the list of my favorite productions. I've lost count of how many times I've seen it, and I never get tired of it or bored. The truth is that I identify with Rebecca. What I wanted most after I graduated and started working was to have a credit card, and when I got one, the first thing I did was spend. Obviously, I didn't get into debt like Rebecca, but I am aware that I used shopping as therapy and as a way to feel better when something happened to me or when I was simply feeling down.

Creo que adicta a las compras es una película que nos deja muchas reflexiones, una de ellas es como la mentira nos hace prisioneros, una mentira conlleva a otra mentira y es muy difícil poder salir de allí. En ocasiones también queremos vivir de apariencias y esto es lo peor que hay, porque nos hace endeudarnos, no nos permite ahorrar y nos aleja de nuestros sueños; vivimos para encajar en grupos o en la sociedad y no nos importa hasta vender nuestra alma al diablo.
I think Shopaholic is a movie that leaves us with many reflections, one of which is how lies make us prisoners. One lie leads to another, and it is very difficult to get out of that cycle. Sometimes we also want to live by appearances, and this is the worst thing there is, because it makes us go into debt, prevents us from saving, and distances us from our dreams. We live to fit in with groups or society, and we don't even care if it means selling our souls to the devil.
Finalmente, me gustaría poder leer en los comentarios sus opiniones ¿ya vieron la película? Después de leer mi opinión ¿La verían? Ya para despedirme, quiero agradecer a quienes se toman unos minutos de su tiempo para leer mis publicaciones.
