Samppe Answer 1
I think that it is only a natural desire in the hearts of many people that they want to own things that are beautiful, uncommon, and luxurious because it helps them define their characters and personalities. Needless to say, I have also wanted to own some of these luxurious items myself in the future, and a luxury bathtub happens to be just one of them.
Now, this luxury item is such a thing that I can’t just buy one and stick it somewhere inside my home or carry it wherever I go. Oh, talking about home, I don’t even own one because the place, in which I usually live, is either rented or owned by my parents. So, the idea of owning a luxury bathtub, even in the future, might seem to be a bit farfetched at this point.
But, I am pretty sure that situation is going to change someday when I will have my own home. With it, I shall also have my luxury bathtub – an elegant-looking, crystal bathtub that is – made by some top-notch Italian company. And after setting this luxury item inside my bathroom (looking equally beautiful and elegant as well), I will definitely want to enjoy my bath as often as I can, until I get tired of it, while also enjoying some beautiful music and romantic light at the same time.
Anyway, I want to own this luxury item, mainly because it looks so classy and elegant that it is sure to change the complexion of my entire bathroom to turn it (bathroom) into a very special part of your lovely home. After all, to me, the more appealing your bathroom gets, the more livable your home becomes. I want to own this luxury item also because this is where I want to enjoy my “very own, quality time” while taking my shower after a long and tiring day at work. After all, I don’t think anything rejuvenates us as better as taking a nice shower in a bathtub!
Sample Answer 2
What luxury item would I want to own in the future? Well, how about a great sports car! Now, there are so many types of luxury car brands in the market, and therefore it is never easy to pick the one l really like. Of course, I have driven some luxury cars before, but that never makes me an expert on “luxury cars”. But, based on whatever tiny bit of information I have gathered about luxury cars, I think I would like to buy a Porsche Sports car in the future.
To give you an idea of what this car looks like, it’s a two-door, two-seater, rear mid-engined coupe that is powerful and carries a class and attitude that can easily make one proud about his taste in cars. With a familiar muscular look, this shiny, six-engine, road warrior has a longer wheelbase, wider nose, and some groundbreaking technologies. The interior features also are beyond the world.
So, by any standards, this Porsche sports car is “unique” among other luxury cars, and that’s probably the main reason why I want to buy it. Then, of course, the grand and special feeling of creating “traction” on the highway with such fast cars is just unbeatable. Besides, at some points of my life, I also want to be seen as “successful”, instead of looking frugal always, and I don’t think that there is any better way to do this than owning a luxury car.
Of course, learning how great this car really is one thing, but whether I would be able to own it one day or not is something totally different. But, given what I earn now, I think that it will probably take me about a good 20 years of my life to save up enough money, necessary to buy such a car. Now, with an average age of about 70 years, the prospect of saving up so much money and then actually being able to buy such a nice luxury car doesn’t look very bright.
